Today on our 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we'll be test fitting the Kuat NV Aluminum
Platform Style 2 Bike Rack for 2" Hitches, part number N101. To begin our test fit, we'll
slide the shank of the bike rack into the receiver tube of the hitch, line up our pin
hole, and insert our pin and secure it with the lock on the other side. We'll use
the hand *** to secure our bike rack to our vehicle and engage our anti-rattle device.
Now we'll go over a few clearance measurements. We have about 16" ground clearance. The
closest point of the bike rack to the rear of our vehicle is about 5-1/2", and we've
added about 16" to the overall length of our Chevrolet Silverado. We'll pull
the orange lever at the base of the bike rack and allow it to unfold to the loading position.
With the bike rack in this position, we now have
a ground clearance of about 24".
