Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2007 GMC Yukon XL- Video
Today on our 2007 GMC Yukon XL we're going to be doing a test fit of the Thule Vertex Hanging Style Four-Bike Rack, Part No. TH9029XT. As you can see, we've already got a bike up here in place so you can see what it's going to look like once you have it fully assembled, the cradle arms out, and a bike in place on your vehicle. Let's start off by getting our shortest distance measurements here. Our closest distance is going to be about 3-3/4 inches to the front side here. Overall distance that we've added to the vehicle from the back side of the bumper to the back of the cradle arms at about 38 inches, and our ground clearance is going to be about 20 inches. All right, let's talk about how the bike is secured to our rack. We're going to have two straps coming over the top, as well as one around the side. more
