I have a classic Wilco Hitchgate for sale that's been used on 2 trips. Manufactured April 2016 so it's about a year old. No rust, works perfectly. I also added a rotopax mount but I'll probably keep it. But the holes are there to add one if you want.

I'm going to get another one but need it to swing towards the drivers side so I can also use my new swinging bike rack. New with shipping over $1,000 and I'm asking $600 obo. Can meet anywhere in the Bay Area or surrounding area.

Let me know if you have questions! Thanks.

Interested if you are willing to box and ship?

I don't mind boxing and shipping it out, I'm just worried that it may cost an arm and a leg. I can try and get a quote for shipping though. Are you in Tulsa? Zip code?
 
Tulsa correct, 74137.

Let me know what it'll cost and we'll go from there, thanks!
 
Sorry for the delay in getting a shipping quote. It was spring break for the kids and we scooted out of town. On another note, if it doesn't sell first, I'm going to bring this along with me to Overland Expo West if anyone wants to pick it up there. Let me know!
 
No problem, wish I wasn't a 3 days drive away. Let me know if you don't have any luck with it locally. It's the solution I want so I'm interested it if doesn't sell.
 
Sorry guys- I've decided to keep the hitchgate and mod it to work with my bike carrier. Can't see how to edit the title to indicate that change. See some of you at Expo West!
 
I have one for sale for the same price. It's not a Wilco but it is based on the Wilco design. I believe the metal is thicker than the Wilco mainly because it was custom built by a machinist in the Natural Gas Industry. It opens smooth, locks tight and worked great for me. It has plenty of room for maxtracks, Jerry cans or whatever else you want on it. It doesn't open all the way but that can be easily fixed by grinding off the stop post. I asked for the stop post mainly so the Wyoming wind wouldn't smash it into another vehicle. It has the same wedge design for the hitch and doesn't wobble at all. I added a couple turnbuckles on each of the ends for added stability but they're not needed.
I'm selling it because I'm finally working on a full bumper. I live in Wyoming and would have no problem taking down to Salt Lake City, Ut or the surrounding areas. I can look into shipping it as well but you will have to pay for shipping.
Let me know if you're interested.

It looks good. I'm assuming that you will keep the hi lift? Is there still a place to mount it or will I have to get another one? And I am in 94089, shipping quote would be awesome, if it's still available.

Yes I will keep the hi-lift but the mounting points are permanent so you can use them for another hi-lift, add gas cans or what ever you want. . I can try and get a shipping quote on Tuesday.
 
I wish I would have known (or read it sooner) you were going to be at Expo West!?! Haha so if I'm good with that shipping quote/timeframe, how much will the gate cost me?

I never said I was going to Expo West but I wish I could though, that would be fun.
I've dropped the price to $550.00 and the quote for shipping was $116.00 so the price for the tire carrier will be $434.00 without the shipping added. I tried sending you a PM. Did you get it?
