Today on our 20011 Toyota Camry were going to do a test fit of the Thule Apex 4 bike carrier part #: th9025. Our vehicles equipped with an inch and a quarter hitch, so with our bike rack already preassembled well need to remove the 2 inch by 2 inch bushing so the bike rack shank will slide directly into the receiver tube. As we slide the shank into the receiver tube well line the integrated hitch pin up with the receiver tube holes, then use the hand knob to secure the bike rack to the hitch. Now with our rack in a stored position were going to go ahead and take a couple of measurements. From the closest point of the bumper to the bike rack is 4 inches. From the lowest point of the bike rack to the ground we have 10 inches of ground clearance.
Now we can go ahead and check for rear cargo access. As you can see, even with the bike rack in the upright position we have plenty of access to the rear cargo area, but should we need additional access we can go ahead and grab the quick release lever at the base of the rack and tilt the bike rack away from the vehicle. Now lets go ahead and close the cargo door, well put the bike rack back in the upright position and then extend the bike rack arms to the carrying position and set it up so we can go ahead and load up a bike. Ill go ahead and undo the hold down straps so were ready to put our bike directly into position. Once we have the bike in position well go ahead and take the hold down straps and secure the bike to the bike rack.
And there you have it. In just a few simple steps we secured the bike to the bike rack and the bike rack to the vehicle. Now were ready to hit the road. And that does it for our test fit of the Thule Apex 4 part #: th9025 on our 2011 Toyota Camry.
