Today we have a 2014 Chevy Tahoe, and we'll be test fitting the Hollywood Racks Traveler Hitch-mounted Hanging 5 Bike Rack, part number HR9200. We'll begin our test fit by sliding the shank of the bike rack into the opening of the hitch. We'll need to line up the pinhole in the shank of our rack with the pinhole in our hitch. Once we do that, we'll thread in our anti-rattle bolt. The anti-rattle bolt is just going to help prevent any wiggle or wobble within the hitch. Once we get that finger tight, we'll then tighten it down using a wrench, give it a good shake, and then we'll secure it with a clip on the other side. With the bike rack secure, we'll go ahead and give you a couple of clearance measurements. For ground clearance, we have about 22-1/4 inches. Closest part of the rack to the closest part of the vehicle is going to be about this angled piece right here. more
