Fork Mounted Bike Rack for 15 mm Thru Axle Yeti SB5c

Question:

I have a 2015 Yeti SB5c with a custom Fox 34 Float CDT fork thicker quick release skewer -vs- a road bike. Will my thicker quick release setup work on the SATRK33 actually the wheel holder? I think my wheel wont mount on the wheel holder as the quick release threads into the other side of my Fox Float 34 shock and doesnt have a nippleinch on the non-quick release side hope that makes sense. Also, my shock itself has not opening for the Fork Mount Trap to slide into guess I can completely unscrew that shaft out and then back through my fork. Is this the only setup or do you have a setup for the bigger Fox Shock quick release skewers? Again, hope this is making sense. Biggest worry is wheel not working on wheel holder. Thanks,

From the research I did it looks like the Fox 34 Fload forks you have on your 2015 Yeti SB5c (nice bike BTW), use a 15 mm thru axle. The # SATRK33 would not work with the 15 mm axles, it only works with 9 mm axles.

The closest thing to this rack that I could recommend would be to use the part # DRT15 mounted on a board so that you could store your bike(s) in the back of your SUV.
