Customer Question: I have a 2004 Jeep Liberty. I’m interested in a rear mount rack for bikes and skis. I’ve looked at the Thule Spare Me rack, and it seems to fit my needs. However, I’m concerned about access to my trunk area when the rack is in use. The back window on the Liberty swings up and the door swings out. Will I be able to have the window swing up and clear bikes and skis on the rack?
Racks for All Solution:The 963 Spare Me is a great rack, we sell plenty of them to Liberty owners. The Spare Me is a bike carrier only, however. It is not, to my knowledge, convertible to carry skiis.
We sell a combination bike/ski rack that will work with a hitch:
