Bicycle Rack.

[Smack]

I had a jeep with a 2 inch receiver so having a 2 inch receiver was important because I have a bike rack that swings away.
After swinging the bike rack out I found the knob (can't see it in the picture) on top of the bike rack touches the handle on the tailgate, for now I put a couple rags on the knob. No sitting on the tailgate

On the upside the bike rack use to press on the spare tire when it was down (as it is in the picture) I put heavy cardboard between the rack and tire.

Not clear on what the issue is. Hitch too close to Mav? Get an extender.

If I extend it the truck will not fit in the garage

I have never seen a bike rack like that. Usually, it just sticks out from the back of the vehicle for two or three bikes.

Thule swing away (I'll take and post pictures) 4 bike rack. I have had it since 2009 had it on my 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X. It was over $450.00 back then.
The new ones look a little different...

Damn, it's not small enough. Mine won't fit with an extender either. Ford sure messed up. Wonder where the 12-inches should have come from. I know, spend $50,000 and extend the garage. Problem solved.
