How to Determine if Yakima 4 Bike Rack Y02476 Will Clear Rear Bumper of Vehicle

Question:

Hi, You include this measurement in some of your other videos. Can you advise the tongue length of the hitch - that is to say the distance from the hole to the vertical portion of the mechanism? I need to make sure it clears a special rear bumper on the vehicle. Thanks!

The distance from the hitch pin to the back of the upright bar of the Yakima Bike Rack for 4 Bikes part # Y02476 is 9 inches. You'd need less than 9 inches from the center of your hitch pin to the furthest point out on the rear bumper for this rack to fit and clear.
