Thule Passage Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Review - 2013 Jeep Patriot

Today, on our 2013 Jeep Patriot, we'll be doing a quick test fit of the Thule Passage Trunk-Mounted 2-Bike Rack, part number TH910XT. We'll begin our test fit by placing the rack up onto the rear hatch, or excuse me, the rear bumper. Now, the bottom portion of the rack does need to be placed on the upper tier of the rear bumper here, and then we'll just make sure that the rack is centered onto the back windshield. Then the first thing I'm going to do is just use the top hooks and clip them to the top part of the rear hatch. This is just going to help make sure that the racks stay in place while I continue to move around the rack and install the other clips. Now, I'm not going to tighten these all the way. I'm just going to get them nice and snug, again, just to help me keep them in place. Now, the side strap and the bottom strap is all connected, so I'm going to do the side first, then come down, and actually I'm going to do the bottom. more

Thule Archway Trunk Mount Bike Rack Review - 2013 Jeep Patriot

Today on our 2013 Jeep Patriot we'll be test fitting the Thule Archway Truck Mounted 2-Bike Rack, part number TH9009XT. We'll begin our test fit by placing the bike rack up onto the upper tier of the rear bumper. You just want to double check and make sure that the pads are fitting right onto the bumper. Switch this one around just a little bit just to make sure it sits right. The pads are kind of elongated so if you don't have them sitting right, the rack is going to be kind of crooked and you don't' want that. Then what we'll do is we're going to take the top straps and hook them to the top part of the hatch. We'll tighten it just a little bit. more
