Thule Big Mouth Roof Bike Rack Review - 2013 Nissan Frontier- Video
Today on our 2013 Nissan Frontier we'll be test fitting the Thule big-mouth roof-mounted bike rack, part number TH599XTR. With the Thule Rapid Traverse roof rack system already assembled onto our vehicle we'll begin our test fit by placing the bike rack up onto the vehicle's load bars. We'll then bring the front two brackets on the underside of the front bar and hook in the T-bolts into the designated slots. We'll then move to the rear, remove one wingnut to make the rear bracket go on top of the bar. We'll then move back up to the front making sure our T-bolts are still in position and turn the black wingnuts to secure the front part of the bike rack to the front bar. With everything all tightened down and secured we're ready to load up our bike. We'll undo the front and rear wheel strap and we'll undo the black lever which controls the jaws. We'll place our bike up onto the bike rack maneuvering the frame clamp up or on the sprocket and on the bottom portion of the frame. We'll then clamp down the black lever to secure the jaws to the bike frame. We'll then secure the front and rear tire with straps. And now that our bike is all loaded up that will complete today's test fit for the Thule big-mouth roof-mounted bike rack, part number TH599XTR, on our 2013 Nissan Frontier. . more
