How To Carry Bikes On a 2020 Airstream Globetrotter

Question:

Im looking for a bike rack for my 2020 Airstream Globetrotter. I tried the Stromberg Carlson CC-275 Bike Bunk but it wouldnt clear my propane tank. And there wasnt much room on the A-frame for the brackets since there are thick electrical cables and a bracket having something to do with the solar panel battery attachment. Will the Jack-It 2 Bike Rack possibly fit? It says it has 22.5 clearance for the jack but my jack seems to be 23 tall from the A-frame if I remove their leveling bubble. Ill include pics. Thanks for your help!

The best option I have for you to carry bikes on a 2020 Airstream Globetrotter is at the back of the trailer with a trailer hitch like the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13703. Simply put, you just have too much stuff on the tongue now to be able to fit a bike rack. The Jack-It 2 Bike Rack for A-Frame Trailers part # LC429756 requires the jack to be no more than 22-1/2" tall from the bracket, so 23" won't work.

Then for a bike rack, the Swagman Original part # S64152-2 would be a great fit.
