Wilco Hitchgate Solo on a 2020 Kia Telluride

Overview of the Wilco Offroad Hitchgate Solo (High-Clearance) spare tire carrier installed on a 2020 Kia Telluride. Includes two RotoPax fuel canisters and the license plate kit. I thought this might be helpful for people trying to understand the fit for this combination.

Thanks for the Video, I put a Solo High Clearance on my truck, but was curious about how the Plate relocate panel looked etc. Looks good to me!

This is cool man, I got a 100 series and I love seeing different rig off-road looking forward to more videos

Thanks for the review, doing more Overlanding with the family and have been looking for a tire carrier that will support my new wheel and tire package, with options for spare fuel. Think I'm giving this one a try. Subbed, keep em coming.

Super helpful!! Thanks for the video!

Thanks. Good to see the side view for clearance. I need to have the same modularity. The vehicle must transform from offroad vacamobile to grocery getter. So no crazy Arb bumpers.

Going to the dealer to purchase a Telluride tomorrow if the deal is right. Looking forward to seeing more modifications.

Did you consider any other tires?

[@pnw_gx470]

Looks great. Can you confirm the part # for the hitchgate?

[@sadielnunez9776]

Can I know where you ordered it from? Thank you

Hi, nice video. By the way what’s the brand of your roof cross bar?

[@mpritchard]

Those are the OEM Kia crossbars. They stand pretty high, but neither Thule/Yakima/Rhino had fit kits for the Telluride when we bought it. If we were to do it again, we go with one of those to be a little more low-profile. But the OEM ones work fine.

How long did it take to get the hitch from Wilco? Appears they are at least 2-3 weeks behind on orders. Looks like a nice set-up. Thanks!

Do you have lock nuts on your spare, just asking as i'm looking into the high clearance as well
?

[@MrJpags]

Can you open the lift gate when the wheel carrier is closed position? If not, whst happens if you accuse you hit the ‘open tailgate’ button, does it stop or will it break trying to open?

[@mpritchard]

No, you can't open the lift gate with the carrier closed. I think if you accidentally opened the lift gate, it would hit the carrier and then close again (depending on the vehicle). I haven't done that yet, and don't plan to try it out 🙂

Matt, is that spare tire your second spare? You still have the one under the trunk?

[@mpritchard]

Yes, this is an additional spare, though it's the one I would use first if needed.

[@dachta1]

Hello Matt, do your Telluride has self levering? If so, how does work?

[@mpritchard]

Nope, no self-leveling on the Telluride.
