no longer correct. Yakima has hitch racks that fit either 2" or 1 1/4" class I in the same box.

I just got a curt 11050, and a Yakima double down, and it slapped right on no issues

Oh, nice! Good to know. I sent them a gripe mail at the time I installed and they responded that they had no plans to support Class 1 hitches "as the market for them is so small".

I guess they discovered they were wrong about that and that Thule was kicking their butt in this segment.
