Carrying Bike Rack on 2021 Toyota 4Runner that is Towing Trailer
Published 05/18/2021
Question:
I want to mount the Thule Outway Platform bike rack on my 2021 4Runner Your fit guide says it will work.. I will use it while I pull a camping trailer as well as just taking bikes to a ride without the trailer. My questions: 1 What is the length of the extended platform, I want to make sure the bikes dont impact the trailer jack. 2 Do you have an installation and road test video for this bike rack. Ive watched a lot of your bike install and road test videos and they are extremely helpful on narrowing down my choices of which bike racks could work for me.

Expert Reply:
It's actually not recommended to tow a trailer with a trunk mounted bike rack for clearance reasons but we do have a great solution with the Lippert Jack-it # LC429756 which installs by attaching under the jack mounting flange and allows you to carry two bikes above the propane tanks.
Then to use it in a hitch you'd want the # LC723359.
