Bike Rack For Integrated Hitch (1 Viewer)

[johsti]

For those of you with the hitch integrated into the bumper, which bike rack are you using? My current Swagman rack won't fit into the hitch receiver because of the rounded corners on the integrated hitch. Even if it did fit, the rack would hit the spare tire before lining up with the pin hole.

I've heard that the Thule T2 works if you adjust the spare tire, but am looking for any other options that are known to work with the integrated hitch.

This is the hitch I'm referring to.

I've got the Kuat NV (2 and 4 bike versions) and I use a 8" drop receiver with my BIOR bumper in order to clear the swing out. That said, Mike is making the drivers swing out bike rack piece as we speak. The drop receiver is wobbly, which is why I wanted the Kuat in the first place - it doesn't wobble.

I also tried a regular straight extension receiver, but that didn't go out far enough and the swingout still hit the rack.

I adjusted the spare tire for more clearance and slightly grinded the corners on my Swagman rack. Works great now.

I have the Thule T2 and had to cut it down for the spare tire issue.

why not just get a hitch extension? That will probably also allow you to use the tail gate while the rack is on there, an added bonus.

something like this.
