Thule Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2014 Ram 1500- Video
Today, on our 2014 Ram 1500, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Gate Mate. This is a padded tailgate cover that'll also act as a bike rack. Its part number is TH824. To begin our test fit, we're going to place the Gate Mate right up over our tailgate. This is the one designed for the wider width, so it's 62" wide. As you'll see, we're going to have 3 straps hanging off the front of it. These straps need to be fed around the underside of our tailgate, and we'll fit them into the clips that are on the backside. more

Swagman Pick Up Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2014 Ram 1500- Video
Today on our 2014 Ram 1500, we're going to be test fitting the Swagman Pickup, this is a bed mounted two bike rack. It's designed with the fork clamp style bike holders. It's part number is S64702. To begin the test fit, we first need to roughly size our bike rack. To do this, we're going to pull out on the side here on the passenger side. It's a ratcheting style system, so as you pull it out, the small catch here is going to catch in and hold that position in for us. Slide it out far enough to where it makes contact with the bed rail, then we'll find a fixed point to use on both sides to be sure we have both of the bed rail holders in line with one another. more
