I have a basic 2006 Caravan. I forget the model but it's the 4 cylinder and the seats don't fold down. I was wondering if it was possible to install some kind of bike mount to the back of the van so that I could mount 2 bikes when we go camping.

Is it possible to do this and if so, is it something I can do myself? There is currently no hitch.

 

Until someone pipes in...you have a few options.

• Bicycle Carrier, Roof-Mount (If you have a roof rack)

• Hitch-Mount Bicycle Carrier (If you install a trailor hitch)

NOTE: You can do much better (price) by searching...

 

I was able to install the hitch myself a few months ago and it works well. I will tell you it was a huge PITA to get the thing in and I would HIGHLY recommend you have a second set of hands to help hold the hitch as you are installing it. The installation wasn't technical at all, it was more a matter of patience. It requires you to fish a metal wire through an area of the vehicle and have it magically come out of a small hole a few inches away.
