Anyone know where I can buy one of them racks to carry mountain bikes that I see on the back of some Jeeps?

 

Quadratec has a hitch mounted Allen bike rack that will is designed to clear the rear mounted spare.

I think if you call them or search their site you'll find it.

Can't recommend any of the tire mounted ones as I've not tried them.

B.S.

 

Hitch mounted is what I was thinking of - Thank you.

Any bike shop would have them. Even websites like Quadratec have them. I suggest one that attaches to your spare, so you can open the back easily. I have one that with a 2" reciever that I like, but my next rack will go on the spare.

 

I did an obsessive amount of research looking for a bike rack. I ended up getting a North Shore Rack (North Shore Racks) and LOVE IT. It will fit 4 50 pound DH rigs no problem. It is rock solid and clears aftermarket spares with ease. My buddy has a Saris Trax Pro 4 bike one and it is good too. . .you would need an aftermarket extension if you have bigger tires.

 

While this clears the spare, does it allow you to open the back? That was the biggest problem I had when I was looking and decided to get a roof rack and put the bikes up there. Not as easy, but I can fit 7 bikes if needed.

 

oh yeah, and I can drop the rack down with all bikes on it and fully open the tailgate.

 

Yes definitely need to open the back, Maybe I need to look at the tire hookups then
