Carrying Bike Rack on 2021 Toyota 4Runner that is Towing Trailer

Question:

I want to mount the Thule Outway Platform bike rack on my 2021 4Runner Your fit guide says it will work.. I will use it while I pull a camping trailer as well as just taking bikes to a ride without the trailer. My questions: 1 What is the length of the extended platform, I want to make sure the bikes dont impact the trailer jack. 2 Do you have an installation and road test video for this bike rack. Ive watched a lot of your bike install and road test videos and they are extremely helpful on narrowing down my choices of which bike racks could work for me.

It's actually not recommended to tow a trailer with a trunk mounted bike rack for clearance reasons but we do have a great solution with the Lippert Jack-it # LC429756 which installs by attaching under the jack mounting flange and allows you to carry two bikes above the propane tanks.

Then to use it in a hitch you'd want the # LC723359.
