Will the RockyMounts MonoRail Get Melted If Installed On the Back Of A 2021 Toyota RAV4?
Question:
I have a 2021 Toyota Rav4 Hybrid. Wondering if mounting the Rockymounts Monorail on the 2inch Curt Hitch C13416 will be ok with regards to the plastic wheel wells being far away enough to not be melted?

Expert Reply:
The RockyMounts MonoRail Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # RKY10004 has 12.25" of rise built into it, so it should sit plenty high and away from your exhaust on your 2021 Toyota RAV4 to not be melted.
If you get the rack and realize even with the built in rise it's still too close to your exhaust, you could always use an extender # C45791 to push the rack out further.
Just know that if you do end up using an extender your hitches maximum weight will be cut by 50%.
