How Tall Is the Yakima LongHaul RV Bike Rack To Use With Front Mount Hitch
Question:
How tall is this unit? I am planning on purchasing the Curt front hitch receiver from you for a 2016 f150, and need a 4-bike rack. Im trying to find one that will minimally interfere with visibility in front of the truck and also not stick out any further than necessary. This rack seems excellent, but Im not sure how tall it is?

Expert Reply:
The Yakima LongHaul RV Bike Rack is part # Y02476 41" tall and the shank is 13" from pin hole to the bike rack so it will stick out about 13" from the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31083 on the 2016 Ford F-150.
I do recommend to make sure you were not blocking all air flow to the vehicle's grill. It is better to have a little bit of space between the bike rack and the front of the truck.
