Hitchswing storage system

[rothjohnson]

Does anyone have experience good or bad with the Hitchswing made by Wilco? It seems to be a good way to add extra storage to my Hawk for trips down to Baja.

Several threads discuss it... Google 'Wander the West: Wilco' for more...

Recently installed one on my GMC 3/4 ton with a Hawk. Long lead time for orders (6weeks), but it's a very high quality unit. I like it.

I use RakAttach.com and very satisfied. Mine swings to driver side (is an option) that way when swung open I can access shaded awning side without walking around.

BIG drawback is the reduced departure angle especially if using cargo basket.

+2 on the RakAttach and XJINTX is right about the departure angle though we haven't had an issue yet with roads traveled. jd
