Can I Open the Tailgate of a 1995 Chevy Tahoe With Swagman XTC2 Folded Down

Question:

I have a 1995 Chevy Tahoe. With the rack folded down will the tailgate open all the way down? Or, can I have the measurement from the 2inch hitch top to the top of the folded down rack and uprights. My measurement from top of 2inch hitch to bottom of open tailgate is 9

Yes, I went out into our showroom and measured one of the Swagman XTC Bike Racks part # S64670 and found that from the top of the hitch opening to the highest portion of the bike rack when folded down measures 8 inches so you should be able to open the tailgate of your 1995 Chevy Tahoe since you have a distance of 9 inches from the bottom of the tailgate to the top of the hitch opening.
