Draw-Tite 2 Bike Wheel Mount Carrier Assembly


We'll show you how this comes together, but first we wanted to remind you that this particular model only fits a 2 inch receiver hitch. We'll go ahead and put it together now and show you how this works. We'll start by inserting the shank into the hitch then we'll start building our superstructure from there. Once we have the superstructure pinned in, there's two set bolts on the bottom. We'll torque those down to keep the rack from going anywhere. Once we get the assembly all bolted together we'll pull out the pins and spread out the arms. Once you have the arms in there locked positions with there pins, now all we have to do is slide on the wheel mounts. Now we have the wheel mounts loosely in their positions, we'll go ahead and slide on the top clamps. Those are all the components needed to haul two bicycles. As you can see, this rack provides value for the dollar.
