Today on our 2013 Ford Edge we'll be test fitting the RockyMounts TieRod Stretch Roof
Mounted Bike Carrier, part number rky1011. Now with our roof rack system already assembled
on our vehicle we'll begin our test fit by placing the carrier onto the vehicle's
load bars. We'll then remove the black plastic cap, bring the rubber-coated steel
straps around the load bar and hook them into position.We can go ahead and tighten them
down tightening the silver bolt. We can then move to the rear where we'll bring the
bracket around the underside of the rear load bar. We'll then thread the bolt back into
the bracket and tighten it down securing the rear of the carrier to the rear load bar.Now
that our carrier is secured to our vehicle we'll loosen up the rear wheel strap and
place our bike onto the carrier. We'll slide the forks of the bike into the open
skewer and tighten it down.
