PAKMULE PRO - Ridgeline

NOTE: Our staff will contact you to process a freight charge of $185 to ship this product to your home.

The Ridgeline was designed for folks that need extra cargo space AND ground clearance. Featuring a 7″ riser to improve your vehicles departure angle, the Ridgeline is the perfect rack for off-pavement SUV’s, UTV’s and Crossover’s where departure angle is a necessity. But also a great fit for sedans or van’s where the hitch is really low to the ground.

The Ridgeline features the same rail height as our Original model, and features the same burly T.I.G. welded quality as our Pro models. This 100% aluminum, wobble-free Ridgeline will never rust, and is designed to haul your gear into the most remote arduous terrain you can find. Or just up your driveway!

The Pakmule Pro series racks feature a solid aluminum tongue (yes a burly, 2″x2″ solid piece of structural grade aluminum right into the hitch) to handle the toughest loads and the knarliest roads.  The Ridgelines’ 7″ riser is triple gusseted at each riser joint to handle serious off-road loads.  All Pro series racks are hand welded, and then heat-treated for extra strength right here in Texas.

Everything you need, and nothing you don’t.  The pipe frame design of our Pro series units are made for big gear and large loads.  They self clean, resist holding dirt or mud, and provide unlimited spots to wrap your MULEstraps around, to ensure your gear doesn’t go anywhere.

Includes our patented anti-wobble connection that bolts your PAKMULE directly to your hitch, keeping everything secure, whether you’re crossing a continent or rambling down some backroad.  Pro Series racks also include our Stainless Steel lock for added hitch security.

The Ridgeline is 12″ narrower than our Original and SwayBack models, so it tucks in behind your vehicle for tight trail work. Weighs just 42lbs but boasts a 450lb capacity.

All PAKMULE Hitch Racks feature a patented design that make it easy to raise SUV lift gates while loaded down with gear to make accessing all your gear easy.*  Otherwise, what’s the point?

It’s not just a hitch basket, it’s a PAKMULE.

(*in many configurations. Coolers sizes tested up to a Yeti 65 along outer rail for most SUV’s. Yeti 45’s for truck tailgates. Larger sizes may not open, although some vehicles may  accommodate larger coolers+gear due to lift gate design of the vehicle, like the Subaru Outback.)

PAKMULE installs into a 2″ square receiver opening. With reducers, the PAKMULE will fit in a 2.5″ receiver hitch. If you have a 3″ hitch, be sure to purchase a 3″ hitch pin.

Ridgeline will not accommodate dropping a tailgate.

If you are buying for a Jeep, please call to confirm fit with your spare tire.
