the receiver extensions to hold them in place. Once
they are both tacked, check to see if the top of the
extension tubes are of all equal height. If not, the 6"
receiver tubes will need to be repositioned. Also check
to see if the tubes are parallel to the center extension.
Once the outside receiver extensions are checked for
equal measurements the two receivers can be welded
completely. Note: Make sure the six inch receiver tubes
are welded by a qualified welder!
3. Making sure the motorcycle deck is parallel to the
coach. Use c-clamps, one on each end, and clamp
the deck to the outside receiver extensions. Drill a
13/32" hole thru the existing 13/32" holes from the
bottom of the receiver extensions into the deck, both
sides. Once the holes are drilled, re-drill the holes in
the deck with a 17/32" drill bit. Using 3/8"-16 x 2 1/4"
carriage bolts and nylon lock nuts, bolt the deck to the
two (2) outside receiver extensions.

Installation
1. Pin the receiver extension into the receiver of the
coach, then bolt the deck to it with a 3/8"-16 x 1"
carriage bolt and nylon lock nut as shown in Figure A.
2. The outside receiver tubes will then need to be
welded to the frame of the coach. The motorcycle
deck that is bolted to the receiver extension will give
you an idea where the 6" receiver tubes will need
to go. The 6" receiver tubes will need to be located
approximately 31" from the center of the coach's
receiver to the center of the 6" receiver tubes as
shown in Figure B. Once the outside extensions and
6" receivers are marked and held in place. Additional
tubes may have to be welded to the C-Channels of
the coach so the 6" receiver tubes are located in the
appropriate spot. (Fig.B) You may need to support
SC2000 Installation Instructions
Motorcycle Carrier I
Note 1: Make sure the motorcycle's weight does NOT
exceed the rated tongue weight of the coach's hitch.
Note 2: There is a need to fabricate, additional spacers or
tubes welded to the frame of the coach for the 6" receiver
tubes to be mounted at the appropriate location. Make
sure outside extensions are supported enough to
support the motorcycle.
Note 3: When flat towing, Blue Ox strongly
recommends using a brake system on the towed
vehicle.
