Clearance Dimension of Thule Hitching Post Arms
Question:
Watched your Video for the 2012 Rav 4 with rear mounted spare part # TH934XTR? . We have a 2011 Rav which is essentially the same. What is the height of the carrier arms measured say from the shank that inserts to the 2 inch hitch? thanks

Expert Reply:
You are correct the 2011 and the 2012 Toyota RAV4's are part of the same model generation so they are extremely similar.
The Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR has arms that have a slight incline for better ground clearance of the 4 bikes while on the rack.
The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole on your shank to the top of the arms closest to the vehicle is 33-3/4 inches and outward from that will vary to the end approximately 3-1/2 inches.
