I bought the previous version of this from you grey version for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler - Rubicon it fits!. I am now contemplating getting this new one for a 2007 Jeep Liberty. will it fit?

In order for the Thule Apex Swing XT 4 Bike Rack part # TH9027XT to work on your 2007 Jeep Liberty you will need to measure the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole on your trailer hitch to the outer edge of your spare tire. If this distance is not more than 8-3/4" then the Apex Swing XT will work for you. If you have more than 8-3/4" but not 9" then the Yakima FullSwing 4 Bike Rack part # Y02465 is your next best option.
If you have more than 9" from the center of the hitch pin hole on the trailer hitch to the outer edge of the spare tire then I am afraid a swing-away bike rack would not work for you and you would have to go with a standard hanging bike rack like the Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR.
