Most Popular Kuat for 1997 Jeep Wrangler

I've tried different brands and styles of racks over the years and the Kuat NV 2.0 Base Hitch Bike Rack is the one rack to rule them all. I was a little concerned by lack of a rear wheel cradle, but bikes are held securely without scratches or paint rub common with most racks. After a year of near daily use, I'm confident my bike is staying where I put it (always double check you've secured it properly). My 2003 Jeep Wrangler required a short hitch extension to clear the rear mounted spare, but even with that it's bomb proof!

Very high quality bike rack. So far very impressed. It was easy to put together and instructions were excellent. I will use on 2022 wrangler and it will require hitch extender. Also I had to remove front fenders on our e bikes to allow easy and secure hold on front tire.
