- Comparison of Curt and Hopkins Wiring Harness for 2002 Jeep Liberty
- The Curt Wiring Harness # C55382 connects behind the tail lights of your 2002 Jeep Liberty. So you need a connector on each side to power the 4-pole. However, the Hopkins Harness # 42475 connects behind a panel in the rear compartment on the passenger side of your Jeep and doesn't connect on both sides. It's really just a matter of the harnesses plugging in at different places.

- Between a hitch-mount rack and a spare tire-mount rack I will always recommend the hitch rack since this type of bike carrier does not place any weight burden on the car's rear hatch. Instead, a hitch rack uses the vehicle's strongest part - its frame - to handle the weight of the loaded bike rack.
Your 2006 Jeep Liberty can be fitted with either a 1-1/4-inch Class II hitch or a higher capacity 2-inch Class III type. All available options are shown on the linked page. Some bike racks can...
