Bike Rack

Hello, can anyone tell me if the part number STC50063 fits the standard armature (I've already got the square tube, plate with slots/tubes on) It's just some posts are talking about part number: bike rack (VTG500020) Pictures look the same. Thanks.

No - that one is different

STC50063 is for a RRS or Disco and bolts onto a drop plate tow ball.

VTG500020 is for the FFR and bolts into the 50mm square armature. It's designed to allow the lower tailgate to open completely with the bikes attached.

The RRS/Disco one doesn't hold the bikes far enough away to open the tailgate and needs the drop plate tow hitch as it uses standard tow ball bolts to mount.

This is what a VTG500020 looks like -



The STC50063 is just this piece -



And I believe (though am not certain) that the offset is less meaning the tailgate won't completely lower.

Many thanks Alistair, all is clearer now, I need the rack part of the VTG50020, have got the bit that goes into the armature. Phew, nearly bought the wrong part off eBay yesterday! Thanks

It may well fit with your mounting piece - they certainly look compatible - the slots in the mounting piece line up with the bolts on a standard tow ball.

I just think the offset is slightly less so you wouldn't be able to fully lower the tailgate.
