Thule Apex 4 Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2012 Ford Explorer- Video
Today on our 2012 Ford Explorer, we'll be test fitting the Thule Apex 4 Bike Carrier, part number TH9025. Now to begin our test fit, we'll slide the shank of the carrier into the opening of the hitch. Line up our pin holes, insert our spring loaded pin to the pin hole, and turn the black knob to engage our anti-rattle device. Now with the carrier secured to the vehicle, we'll go over a few clearance measurements to see how the bike carrier and its vehicle will fit together. There is about 15 inches of ground clearance. The closest part of the carrier here at the anti-rattle knob to the closest part of the vehicle at the rear bumper is about 2 inches. more
