Today, on our 2012 Chevrolet Equinox, we'll be test-fitting the Hollywood Racks Traveler
four-bike carrier, part number HR8500. To begin our test fit, we'll slide the shank
of the carrier into the opening of the hitch, line up our pinholes and the thread our anti-rattle
bolt through the pinholes and tighten them with a wrench.Now, with the carrier secured
to the vehicle, we'll go over a few clearance measurements. We have a ground clearance of
12 inches. The closest point of the bike carrier to the closest point of the rear of our vehicle
is about an inch. With the bike rack in its folded position, weve added nine inches to
the overall length of our vehicle.We'll pull the pin at the bottom of the mast to
activate out tilt feature. As you can see, we can easily gain access to the cargo
area of our vehicle.
