Question:
With the rack tilted, how far can the Wrangler rear door be opened?
asked by: Sundara S
Expert Reply:
The Thule Hitching Post Pro Folding/Tilting 4 Bike Rack # TH934XTR has a tilting mast feature that can be seen in the linked photo and in the linked video at the 1:40 mark. The mast can tilt back to about a 45-degree angle. On the Grand Cherokee in the example video the hatch can open fully.
The fixed vertical base part of the tilting mechanism, shown in the photo, will extend up 6-inches from the horizontal shank. If you measure 6-inches up from the top of your hitch opening you will be able to see where this part of the rack will be. If the bottom of the rear door is higher than 6-inches above the hitch opening you will have full clearance.
