Abstract: An equipment rack for vehicles includes a lower support arm extending generally parallel to the rearward bumper of the vehicle and connectable to the vehicle hitch. An upper swinging arm is pivotally connected to the lower arm and includes a horizontally extending portion and a vertical shaft. The upper arm is connected to the lower arm such that the vertical shaft will swing through an arc away from the rearward end of the vehicle. A locking pin is connectable through apertures in the upper and lower arms to lock the upper and lower arms together to prevent swinging movement of the upper arm. Interchangeable brackets are designed for selective connection to the vertical shaft and have supports thereon for various types of equipment.
