Would Thule T2 Bike Rack Clear Rear Bumper of a 2006 Chevy Cobalt SS with Draw Tite Hitch Installed
Question:
I am looking at getting this rack for my 2006 chevy cobalt SS with the draw-tite hitch #24756 installed. Do you know if this rack TH9045 will clear my rear bumper.

Expert Reply:
With the Draw Tite Hitch part # 24756 installed on your 2006 Chevy Cobaly SS the Thule T2 Classic part # TH9045 would fit and clear the rear bumper if folded down. It wouldn't have enough clearance to fold up though.
Since your vehicle would have 6 inches between the hitch pin hole and the furthest point out on the rear bumper there really isn't going to be a platform bike rack that would fold up.
