Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2012 Jeep Wrangler to Carry Bike Rack
Question:
I bought the Rockymounts backstage from you for my 2012 Jeep Wrangler and now I need a hitch. I was thinking maybe 6. Do you have a recommendation?

Expert Reply:
The best hitch solution for your 2012 Jeep Wrangler to carry a bike rack would be the etrailer part # e98856 as it has the longest hitch tube which allows bike racks to have the best clearance past the rear spare. Based on the dimensions of the Backstage part # RKY10002 and dimensions we've taken when we've installed the hitch you would have clearance to use this rack.
