Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Jeep Wrangler
Question:
Hello, I would like to purchase a Yakima 4-bike rack y02476 and the 13432 hitch for a 2015 Wrangler Sport 2 door. Will this fit okay or do I need an extender? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
The hitch part # 13432 has been confirmed to fit your 2015 Jeep Wrangler and would work well, but in order for a bike rack to fit and clear your rear spare you will need it to have a distance of over 10-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the upright bar of the rack and the Yakima LongHaul # Y02476 only has 9 inches.
Instead, the Thule Hitching Post part # TH934XTR has more than enough clearance to work as it has 13-1/2 inches from the hitch pin to the rack.
