Recommended Hitch-Mounted 4-Bike Carrier For 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

We do offer a great bike rack that will hold 4 bikes on the back of your 2015 Jeep Wrangler unlimited.

I recommend the Swagman XTC4 4-Bike Rack, part # S64665. This is a platform-style carrier that is easier to load and unload than the hanging bike carriers. This carrier has a 4 bike capacity at 35 lbs each. The carrier can be folded up when not in use, and when empty you can fold down the upright masts allowing you access to the rear cargo area of your Wrangler. This carrier will handle bikes with up to 2-1/2 in wide tires and wheelbase from 27-1/2 to 61 inches. The distance from center of hitch pin hole to the closest edge of wheel hoop when carrier is folded down is 12-3/4 inches. I have attached a product review video for this carrier.

Another bike carrier that has the option to carry 4 bikes is the Swagman Quad 2+2 Bike Rack, part # S64691. This 2 bike base rack includes the 2 bike add-on, so you have the versatility of a smaller bike carrier when needed. This rack has a locking hitch pin and cable lock included. The carrier can handle bikes with wheel diameters between 20 and 29 inches and a maximum wheel width of 3 inches with a wheelbase between 15 and 51 inches. When unloaded this carrier has the folding upright masts that allow rear cargo area access. The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest wheel tray is 17-1/4 inches. I have attached a product review video for this bike carrier.

When considering a hitch-mounted bike rack you will want to take a quick measurement to make sure the bike rack will clear the back of your bumper or rear mounted spare tire. I have attached a helpful article that shows you how to take that measurement you can take a look at.
