I just bought one what you need to buy is a perforated aluminum sheet cut. To size so that the wheels don’t get stuck in the gaps also on Amazon they sell something that you place on the hitch itself to stop from rattling. Part is like 9 bucks hope this helps
Your assembly guide has been very, very helpful. For the life of me, I could not figure out where those large washers went because as you said, the instructions get "funky" at that point in time, I suspected that's where they went, but I wasn't absolutely sure. Once again, thank you so much for posting this on youtube.
Thank you for doing this video. It saved me from buying it. Construction looks ok but that ramp looks steep and no disabled person especially my mom would ever be able to use that herself.
I’ve used these with dad back in the day. If I have to do it again I will spend the extra money and get one that is electric and lifts up and down. A whole lot easier to load. 👍
One thing to take note of, the carrier should have been bolted to the hitch mount in reverse from what you did. This will let you unload the scooter to the sidewalk side of the vehicle and not the traffic side.
Gary Maiden good thing to point out thank you. We did return it to the store unfortunately because it just stuck out too far for the truck and it was really difficult to park with this sticking out the back. I like the foldable ones much easier
That is exactly what I was getting ready to say, I just saw the video myself for the first time on the Harbor Freight app, and I come to here to be able to leave a comment, but yeah, an extender to where it would lower it to the ground a little further about 4 inches that would make a big difference and be able to get it up there on it with just one person, I’ve got one myself and getting ready to purchase a ramp carrier to be able to take my scooter with me when I need to go somewhere by myself and I know myself personally, it would be a little hard for me to get it up there it would give me out real fast But yeah, the extender to where it would lower it even about 4 inches like I said to the ground would help a great deal……
I agree, A drop/rise receiver, for a pickup depending on the height of the truck, 4”-6” probably. Most of the carriers are designed for cars or SUVs, that are lower to the ground.
Helpful video. I wish I would have watched before putting mine together today. In the video from HF, they show it loading on the driver side but the box and photos show the left. Also, if loading at a curb it makes the ramp angle less which makes loading easier. Thanks a bunch.
Thank you, I was confused about attaching the trailer hitch part to the bottom of the carrier. The instructions were vague on that procedure. Now it makes sense!
I have a 2010 traverse. I have the hauler with the ramp on the passenger side. But I have to lower the ramp in order to open the rear hatch door. Should have been off set. I also bought the anti rattle tightener to keep the hitch tight. The hitch part makes it heavy. I plan to extend the top ramp pin holder so it will slant out enough to open the rear door. Also, since this carrier is wider - if you position coolers, bike etc correctly the rear door opens without unloading everything. So this is a plus.
Good vid man , I put my ramp towards the the passenger side so when I pull up to a house I could unload an load my Power Washer away from traffic..and towards the house ..safer an more efficient 🤙
I know you returned this but a small come along would possibly make it easier for a one man job. I'm searching myself and your video sure kept me from making the wrong decision!
Not sure if that would work because it would just be so much work to just use a come along and then have to push it and the come along would be too long
Had to put diamond plate on my ramp and platform for traction and 3 of the 4 eye bolts broke off and had to replace with bigger, stronger ones. Other than that I really like this hauler.
The only thing I can think of is the Ramp is too short so it's at too steep of an angle. I'm thinking of buying this kit just to use the parts to build a weather enclosure for a mobility chair. Thanks for the vid you just need an extension for the ramp. 👍👍❤
A drop/rise receiver, for a pickup depending on the height of the truck, 4”-6” probably. Most of the carriers are designed for cars or SUVs, that are lower to the ground.
Problem with this carrier, some scooters like a Maxima Pride 3 wheel scooter the casters underneath get caught on the rungs won't climb it. I had to buy rolled aluminum and screw that over the rungs then add grip stick tracks for the tires to climb it. Then I got a 4 wheel scooter and that scooter got high centered going up it, of coarse I have a 4x4 pickup which is a bit higher. Another issue being disabled I could not carry this carrier to the truck so I installed 4 casters to roll it to the truck then added running and brake lights to it people tailgate I figured made it safter from vehicles slamming my scooter.
Your problem is the steep angle of the ramp, and the sharp corner it creates where the ramp meets the carrier. Install a hitch mount lowering adapter that brings the hitch square closer to the ground… maybe 6 inches (but not too low that the carrier would hit the ground while traveling). You can minimize the carrier’s wobble and play by also installing a hitch receiver clamp to the ramp.
Hey looking at getting one of these to tote bounce houses around , they make a piece that inserts into the hitch so u can make ramp lower. Think it's called a 2 way insert? Hope that helps. Edit: Dual hitch extender
Lay a piece of plywood at the bottom of the ramp and back the scooter on. The plywood is so the rear wheels can find traction before the anti-tip wheels hit the ramp. After the scooter is on the ramp and off from plywood place the plywood in the bottom of the carrier for storage, then finish backing the scooter on and tie it down.
Even though this vid is 3 years old -- if a side walked-curb isn't available to park next to ---- how about taking only the ramp to a shop that does Aluminum welding and adding 2' of length -- that will cut down on the steepness -- but check it first with lengths of wood ----- you might need longer or not as much -- Good vid -- I'm in the market for one now -- P/S -- I'd be interested in what you did to solve the problem ?
I returned it and we got one that folds up so it doesn't stick out so much when not in use helps with parking and not letting the truck stick too far out after the scooter is removed
Thanks for the video. Seeing how such a carrier actually works for loading was notable, as was the assembly and the wobbly mounting. Given the construction of the undercarriage of many scooters and the usual height of hitch receivers, I suspect a loading ramp would have to be 12 or more feet long to avoid manhandling the scooter beyond its own drive-ability. I reckon the Harbor Freight carrier is not unique in that respect. Most carriers I've seen have ramps too short for easy loading of many scooter models.
First, I wanted to see you attach it to the hitch because I don’t know how to remove mine. Second, if you’re going to put it on a pick up, you can either get a longer ramp, or you can lower your ramp onto a sidewalk if you reverse the carrier to load from the sidewalk side.
So does the payload feel secure when you drive? Or Does it feel like you’re gonna lose it on the highway? Looking to pick one up. Thanks for any input.
Recently purchased and assembled Harbor Freight’s Haul Master hitch cargo carrier. Very straight forward assembly. Thanks your video helped along with the instructions. I will be transporting my 24” snowblower approx. 150-200lbs to the service center and i will write further review regarding the sturdiness, strength, reliability of this unit.
I got the exact carrier for my vehicle and I run into that same problem. I'm a big guy muscle wise and everything but I can't get the scooter in or off the carrier by myself especially I can't get it on it the biggest problem is the ramp is not long enough so it's too steep of a grade and it the back wheels come off the ground and spin there's a couple small wheels on the front back of mine that get caught between the slats. It's better than nothing but it's seriously flawed when it comes to being able to get the scooter onto the carrier because of the ramp. Not recommended for someone who doesn't have others to go along with them to put their scooter on and off for them. You won't be doing it alone I guarantee
I bought one of those in my jazzy will not go on and it's sits too high so I have to modify it at the hitch and lower it cuz it sets 18 inches off the ground I have to drop at 6 in
I'm putting a thin diamond plate sheet on the deck and diamond mesh sheet metal on ramp for wheels to pass over gaps in ramp.small wheels. Hitch lift needed to becouse it drags on steep inclines. Thanks for sharing.
I see I'm late to the party, but I'm shopping for one these now. I think the biggest problem with the ramp is where you're parked the ramp is sitting on ground lower then the where the truck tire is sitting. On a level parking lot it would less steep, also you could put a 4x4 block under the end of the ramp. The scooter should be able to climb over the block if you back it on and then the ramp angle would be pretty shallow so it would roll right up without issues. If you see my reply---how well has it held up?
All you had to do was cut a sheet of plywood to fit inside the carrier bottom, that way the wheels aren't getting caught in the carrier squares. Put plywood on ramp also.
Since the cargo would cover your plate, do these need to have license plates issued like utility trailers? Or lights if you have it on at night? I have a bad back, but want to use it for my lawn mower. It looks relatively lightweight if I were to take it off and on at least once a week. Is it awkward to do so? Thank you so much for your review!
@@itiswhatitis7473 Thanks! Good to know! Did you know about the plates or lights? Likely state specific, but I have never seen any of the ones like this that have any. I just find it odd lol. I'm in Ohio btw.
saralynn518 Check out the reviews in Harbor freigh, there’s a veteran who did some minor modifications because of back problems and it made easier and better for his needs
i bought one of these but its light so i turned it into a trailer to pull behind my silverwing. and i pull my honda trail on it. i love it. but as a rack for my truck it was useless.
@@itiswhatitis7473 the ramp where it attaches to the hitch carrier. and only one side had the ramp lock pin go in lined up perfect. the other side seems off so i think i need to take the ramp out and it doesn't seem like it tightens much.
peter panini yeah once it’s in the hitch the holes should match up to slide the pin in, and it doses wobble around so you would need an adapter to stop that
I was thinking about buying this product but now I'm skeptical after seeing all the play in the receiver hitch. I have a very expensive chair and worried about it bouncing all around going down the road.
Could you add a bicycle rack onto the back of this rack? It looks like the receiver tubing runs all the way through to the back but doesn’t have a hole for pine. Could you just add the hole and throw in a bicycle hitch carrier?
I just want potential buyers know that the only reason it was difficult to load was because the scooter was in the ON position and not in Neutral (yellow lever at rear of scooter). Oh, and purchase a hitch stabilizer; stops the rattle.
We bought this for my mobility wheelchair.Bad design.Wheels get caught.My husband bought some thick bigger mud flaps from Napa.It’s still at the wrong pitch .Lowered the hitch can’t be any lower .A little longer ramp might work better.He’s going to extend it.I wouldn’t buy it if I had to do over.Spend a little extra money for a better design.
There are a couple of issues they don't discuss. First, the hitch on a pick up truck sits higher than on a smaller vehicle. My Jeep compass is much lower and the height of the carrier is not as high as that truck they are using. Second. The ramp should go on the passenger side as its meant to be accessed/supported by the curb. The curb will also decrease decrease the travel height of the carrier by a few inches (depending on the curb).
Geez... Every time I look at handicap lifts and carriers, it is a tall man or able man and or able woman. I am short, weakling and talking care of parent who is just as disabled as I.
We just bought this today, total waste of money. Will be returning. Too hard to load scooter, the wheels keep spinning, doesn’t go up. You need a couple strong people to almost lift it on to the carrier. Easier to take the scooter apart and load it in your car.
thanks bro you help me out big time with this video. man I open that box n I was piss that I had to build this thing n when u first open the box It looks like a million lil pieces n I was like how the hell em I going to do this lmfao 🫠 thanks u saved my day

Michael Fargo thank you, yes I would do that with some of that nonskid tape or something like that for grip

Although it would lower your ground clearance, it would help with the ramp issue is to have a hitch extender that lowers the carrier.

Let the scooter and the ramp do all the work all you have to do is guide the scooter up
Nice thank you for the review
Page 2 of the 97599 instructions, "Do not use if carrier is higher than
12.5′′ from bottom of ramp."
They suggest that you load your Mobility scooter and backwards and use tie downs so it doesn't move around
How much do they cost ?.
I think it was like $30 -$40
U should put the ramp on the passenger side so you are out of traffic and it opens towards the sidewalk.
If you have a minivan is much lower to the ground then the pickup truck, Much easier to load n unload
Put it in truck?
Could you add a bicycle rack onto the back of this rack? It looks like the receiver tubing runs all the way through to the back but doesn’t have a hole for pine.

@@itiswhatitis7473 I think he meant back the chair on the ramp
We just bought this today, total waste of money. Will be returning. Too hard to load scooter, the wheels keep spinning, doesn’t go up. You need a couple strong people to almost lift it on to the carrier. Easier to take the scooter apart and load it in your car.
Truck hitch is 2 high
should make sure it works before you buy lol
Ramp is to short
Dude. We can read.
Read this
@@itiswhatitis7473 how wow. A verb and a pronoun. You did good honey *head pat*
Definitely will not be buying seeing you have to but your balls getting the scooter on. Unless you put it together wrong.
Reverse it
My bad
Stupid ramp he literally push that cart on there good thing I didn’t buy it.
Yeah its just not good out the box, you will need extra adaptors for it to work
Add a drop down on the hitch if it’s to high. Simple fix makes it way easier to load scooter.
