Wilco Hitchgate Solo

Just placed my order through wilco offroad! went for the hitchgate solo hi clearance w/ rotopax & hilift mount. Cant wait till it gets here!

 

Did you use my discount

 

yessir I did! thank you again for that!

 

@ewxlt66 Do you know if anyone has mounted a 60 inch hi-lift jack on the solo high clearance? I've seen a couple of pics with hi lifts mounted, but they all look to be the 48 inch. Just curious if they will fit both, or if it is limited to the 48. I noticed on wilco's website that they only listed the 48inch under the accessories. Any input/insight would be appreciated!

 

It will "fit" but you may have trouble opening it all the way. Offset it more to driver's side and it may be in the next lane.

 

@Unchained 5150 do you mind posting a picture like this one except with the top of the tire and the back window/cab in it?

Im trying to get an idea of how high it is going to be in relation to the back window of my cab high camper shell.

In my search, i was able to come across this pic, but its with the standard solo and on an aftermarket bumper.. from comparing your pic and this one it seems the tire will be higher on the high clearance w/ the stock bumper


If you could post a pic i would greatly appreciate it! The suspense is killing me and theres a three week lead time before mine will be shipped out.

Thanks in advance!

 

Does this help?

 

Yes this helps some, do you know what size these tires are?

 

My tires size is 265/75/16

 

Thank you sir! That's the same size im running as well

 

295/70R17 if memory serves.

 

I've been lurking for a LONG time. I'm so close to pulling the trigger on this, but are you able to remove the hitchgate solo easily with just one person? I primarily just want it on for the weekend adventures and not on my daily commute.

 

If you can change a tire by yourself, you are overqualified to install/uninstall this.

It only weighs 56lbs.

1: Remove lugs and tire, put in garage.
2: Remove hitch pin, don't lose it.
3: Loosen wedge lock bolt with socket and extension.
4: Put Hitchgate Solo in garage.

 

Thanks @ewxlt66! That's exactly what I wanted to hear. I'm going to have to make some over-the-top shelving display for this thing in my garage, don't want it getting scratched

Got my hi clearance solo and 3.5 gallon fuelpax mounted up. Loving it so far! Thanks again for all the help @Unchained 5150 & @ewxlt66

 

subd. for possible future purchase. Thank you @Unchained 5150 for all of the leg work on this.

 

Quick question, what exact model is the hitchgate on the new tacoma? It looks like its offset, or is it just the angle?

Thanks!

 

Thats the hitchgate solo hi-clearance

 

Yup! Thats the Solo High Clearance.

It's just the angle of the photo. The tire will sit center of your tailgate and swings out to the passenger side
