Expert Reply:
Yes, you can use the Yakima StraightShot Hitch Extension # Y69VR with the RidgeBack # Y02458 on your 2022 Ford Bronco. This will extend your hitch pin hole out 7-1/4" for added clearance.
The back of the mast on the RidgeBack is 11-1/2" from the center of the hitch pin hole and the closest part of the rack down at the hinge sits 9-1/2" out. I recommend measuring to make sure this will give you enough clearance. Also keep in mind, use of an extender will reduce your hitch capacity by 50%.
