Hello Leah, thanks for reaching out. Yes, the Benton 4-Bike Rack # B82FR is indeed compatible with swing away attachments like the Yakima BackSwing # Y02483.
The only thing to consider is the tongue weight. The Benton rack weighs about 114 lbs and the swing away adapter has a 250 lb capacity. So long as the weight of your bikes, and the rack combined does not exceed 250, you will be good to go.

Hey Leah, how did things go pairing the Benton 4-Bike Rack with the Yakima BackSwing? It’d be great to hear if the swing-away setup worked smoothly with your bikes. Your update could make it easier for others planning a similar combo.
