@Michaewh - can you fold up the rack when it's empty? I looked at 1up's drawing and i think it says that there's only 3 1/2" of clearance from the end of the hitch to the rack when stowed and my truck needs at LEAST 4 1/2".I use a 1-Up hitch rack. I prefer the lower height. Though, it does block the license plate area from view when bikes are loaded or the rack is folded up when not transporting a bike(s). Also, I have to fold it down if I want to open the tailgate.
The afterparty is great1
The regular pin works fine if you skip a washer
I just fold it up as close as possible (probably exceeding the spec, but when empty its not much of a risk). You also have the option of folding part way, so it up out of the way, but not fully verticle.@Michaewh - can you fold up the rack when it's empty?

How did you make this work? Did you use a hitch extender? I really like the 1up superduty but I think I couldn't fold it up while on the truck.
Thanks!
I believe that is correct.Rivian's guide shows mounting the bike facing backwards. I'm assuming because larger bikes would rub against the spoiler?
