Overview
The Harmar AL1242HD Class III Heavy-Duty Short Hitch Adapter is designed for vehicles with a higher hitch receiver that requires a 2-inch drop to properly position a compatible Harmar outside vehicle lift.
Its short design is ideal for vehicles where the hitch receiver sits close to the rear bumper. The adapter keeps the lift closer to the vehicle while lowering it to help improve loading angle, ground clearance, and overall lift positioning.

- Short adapter design
- Built-in 2-inch drop
- Designed for higher vehicle hitch receivers

Is the AL1242HD Right for Your Vehicle?
This adapter may be the correct choice when:
- Your vehicle has a Class III receiver hitch
- Your hitch height measures between 18 and 20 inches
- Your D1 measurement is 4 inches or less
- Your vehicle requires a 2-inch drop
- You need a short adapter rather than a standard or extra-long design
For installations using a Harmar Swing-Away, the hitch adapter chart lists an effective hitch-height range of 16 to 18 inches, a D1 range of 0 to 4 inches, and a minimum D2 clearance of 3.5 inches.
Need Help Confirming Fitment?
The correct hitch adapter depends on the vehicle’s hitch height, bumper clearance, lift model, and whether a Swing-Away will be installed.
Call Affordable Medical USA at 803-926-1493 for help confirming whether the Harmar AL1242HD is the correct adapter for your vehicle and mobility lift.
