Today on our 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan we'll be test fitting the RockyMounts TieRod Roof
Mounted Bike Rack, part number RKY1014. Now, our vehicle is equipped with the Thule AeroBlade
Roof Rack System and our bike rack is preassembled so we are ready to go ahead and fit it to
the vehicle. We'll start by setting the head of the bike rack on the front crossbar. We'll
bring the rubber coated steel straps around and underneath the crossbar and secure it
back to the head of the bike rack. We can then move the rear mounting point over the
rear crossbar. We'll bring the rear clamp underneath and tighten it down with the wing
nuts. We can then tighten down the front head using
the included Allen wrench with the bike rack. With that we can install our front head cover
and that will secure our bike rack to the vehicle. We're now ready to load our bike.
We'll need only to undo the rear wheel straps. We can then set the front fork of the bike
into the skewer and tighten it down.
