Today, on our 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, we'll be test fitting the Hollywood Rack Sport Rider
SE2, Two-Bike Carrier, Part Number HR1450.Now to begin our test fit, we'll slide the
shank of the carrier into the opening of the hitch, line-up our pinholes, insert our pin
through our pinholes and secure it with a lock on the other side. We can then turn the
black handle at the back of the shank to engage our anti-rattle device.Now with our Hollywood
Rack Sport Rider secured to our Jeep Grand Cherokee, we'll go over a few clearance
measurements to see how the two fit together. We have about 19 inches of ground clearance
to the rear of the carrier. Closest part of the carrier to the closest part of our Jeep
is here at the rear bumper about 10 inches away. We've added about 27 inches to the
overall length of the vehicle.We can now pull the three pins at the base of the carrier
to fold down the platform as well as the mast. As you can see we can easily gain access to
our vehicle's rear hatch.To load the bike, we'll make sure the mast is in its
upright position.
