Can Bike Rack be Used on Front Mount Hitch of 2019 Toyota Tundra
Question:
Can we use our Thule bike rack with the front hitch? The Thule has a 1 1/4inch tubing that fits in the receiver. Also, will this interfere with the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and the Pre-Collision System since the radar is located in the Toyota logo on the front grill? Thanks

You can use a bike rack in the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch # 65080 although this is a 2" hitch so you would not be able to use a bike rack with 1-1/4" shank; you would need a bike rack for a 2" hitch like the Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH83JV or Yakima HoldUp # Y02443.
It is possible that using any bike rack will interfere with sensors that are located on the front grille of your '19 Tundra. We have not tested this specifically but it would make sense this would be the case.
