Ford hitch, 1up bike rack, 1up extender, Sasquatch - works great!

FYI the make a part so the rack will sit below the tire so you can fully open the door with the rack in the flat position.

Do you have a part number for the reverse end plates?
I don't see it on their site.

I wasn't satisfied with the available anti-rattle options and wanted something that was tool-less, so I drilled & tapped a hole in the receiver and put in a 3/8" bolt with a knob head. Super easy and fast to put my bike rack & hitch extension on now.

I also ran into trouble with my 1up rack making it inconvenient to open the tailgate and it didn’t allow for towing a trailer or having other tailgate accessories (like a basket). So I made this adapter plate and tailgate limiter. If anyone is interested shoot me a message.

Wow excellent work that is extremely cool. Doesn't block the door, no departure angle issue and doesn't make the parking sensors go crazy nor block the camera?! I'm a little concerned about the amount of leverage applied though by how far the bikes hang away from the door

Thank you! The backup camera is clear, which is why I didn't make it lower. I have a tailgate reinforcement bracket which I recommend. I have had two bikes on it plus all my body weight and I was able to shake the whole bronco without any flex on the tailgate or rack.

Dang! Call me curious. Did you make a run of these?

As a green 2-door owner with 1UP racks (I have the Kuat pivot), well done, especially bypassing the camera and sensors. Now the obvious question: Will it fit in your garage with the bikes mounted?

Thank you! I haven’t measured, but it’d be close. I don’t have the pleasure of parking in the garage, the wife won that battle.
