Swing Away Bike Rack that Fits 2008 Dodge Sprinter that Allows Rear Door Access

Published 03/25/2024

Question:

I am looking for a bike rack for my 2008 dodge sprinter. Are there any all in one solutions for hitch mounted swing away racks? Is the Yakima full swing long enough of an arm to be able to fully open the doors of my van? Or do I need to get a swing arm and a hitch rack separately?

Hey Jared, the Yakima Backswing bike rack part # Y02465 that you referenced does have the needed clearance to allow the rear door of your 2008 Dodge Sprinter to open. It has a distance of 15 inches from it's hitch pin hole to the back of the bike rack mast which is more than enough.
