Thule Helium Aero Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited- Video

So we have our 2014 Jeep Wrangler. We're going to be testing the Thule helium aero. This is a folding and tilting 2-bike rack. It's designed for use in both inch and 1/4 and 2-inch hitches. It's part number is TH9042. Now to begin the test fit, we're going to slide the shank of the bike rack right into the receiver tube of our hitch. As we do, we'll hold out on the attached pin, line up our pinholes, allow that pin to go into the hole and I always like to pull back slightly on it just to be sure we give ourselves as much clearance room as we can. more

Today on our 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited we're going to be test fitting the Saris Freedom Superclamp 2-bike platform-style rack designed to fit 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, part number SA4025. We're going to begin our test fit by sliding the shank of our bike rack into the receiver tube of our hitch. As we slide this in there we'll want to keep an eye out for our pinholes to line up with each other. Then we'll take our anti-rattle bolt and thread it through, making sure we start here on the driver side and go through to the passenger side. Once we get the anti-rattle bolt finger tight we can then use a wrench or socket wrench to finish tightening it all the way down. With this bolt tight it's really going to help take out any rattle or wobble that we may have inside of our hitch. more
