Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2002 Subaru Outback Sedan with Rear Spoiler

Question:

I havent been able to find a trunk rack that will fit over or under the spoiler. Any suggestions?

For a great trunk mount bike rack that will work well with the spoiler on your 2002 Subaru Outback Sedan I recommend the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. This rack works well with factory-installed spoilers. It holds 2 bikes, but the 3-bike verstion # TH56BV will also work. I have included a link to a video review of this rack.

If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
