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: You need 3.5″ of clearance between the upper inside wall of the hitch and bottom of the spare tire/swing door*

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.

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

SCOUT is compatible with the following accessories ONLY: Bike Bit, Rod Holders, MULEstraps, Cinch Lock, Scout Hitchin Post

*If you drive a 2023 Toyota Sequoia or a 2023 Lexus LX600: you will need to purchase the Sequoia pin from our pin & lock replacements product page as the standard pin WILL NOT fit on your wide hitch!*

Be aware of proximity to exhaust. Heat from vehicle exhaust can damage paint and can melt cargo products loaded. This is primarily a concern on rear-facing exhaust.
