We designed the PAKMULE SCOUT for the anyone needing extra space, whether it’s hauling gear to the ball fields, a day trip to the beach, or a quick weekend getaway.
Weighing in at only 37lbs, the SCOUT makes light work of quick trips and big loads alike, with a design that makes loading and accessing your gear easy.
The Pipe rail is not only easy to interact with, but it makes securing gear with our MULEstraps a cinch, and is compatible with our BikeBits, Rod Holders, and Cinch Locks too!*
A built-in floor transforms The SCOUT into a workstation for sorting gear, while our universal design allows it to fit any vehicle with a 2″ receiver hitch, including Jeeps, Trucks, Vans, & Land Cruisers.
*PLEASE NOTE: 2023 Jeep Wranglers may not offer enough clearance to sit under the tire. You need 3.5″ between the upper inside wall of the hitch and bottom of the spare*
Featuring our patented anti-wobble hitch connection to keep your load stable and secure.
The PAKMULE Scout hitch rack — and all of our hitch baskets — are 100% MADE IN THE USA from 70% recycled aluminum content. When you purchase a PAKMULE, you support American workers, their families and the environment.
Requires some assembly. Expedited UPS Ground shipping available.

This hitch carrier is super solid. I love the floor, it opens up a lot of possibilities. No wobble for sure. Light but strong as hell. And hey it looks really cool. Great value at this price point.
I want to add a front bumper hitch receiver for a second one.
