It's part number is TH934XTR. To begin our test fit, we're going to slide the shank of the bike rack right into the receiver tube of our hitch. As we do this, we'll want to line up the threaded hole in the shank of the rack with the pin hole in the receiver tube of the hitch. With those lined up, we're going to take our anti-rattle bolt, and thread that in. We can then use our wrench to tighten that down. more
