Today we're taking a look at a replacement long standoff extension adapter. This fits the Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Rack, part number TH963PRO. It simply replaces a lost or damaged extension adapter. It's made from a durable steel construction. It is a direct replacement part straight from the manufacturer. And with this part number, you get one replacement adapter and when you're installing, you can see it has this hex shaped design.
That's because you can use a wrench or a socket to get it fully installed.You can use a five-eighth inch or a 16 millimeter wrench or socket on this adapter.That's going to do it for today's look at the the replacement long standoff extension adapter. Again, this fits the Thule Spare Me 2, part number TH963PRO.

This metal part fell out of the cheap paper envelope it was packed in. I had to call and have another shipped out which caused me to not be able to use the rack for the trip I purchased it for. I didn’t install the “second” new part until over a month later since I didn’t have a second trip planned until then. During installation, the bolt broke off in the receiver which means I now need another new part that I’ve already ordered twice AND a new receiver so I’m out $85 more AND still can not use the rack for my second trip. Customer service said “Sorry, we can’t help you”. What a HORRIBLE way to do business…

If this would have snapped while the rack was on the vehicle, it could have caused a lot of serious problems not just for me but anyone else on the road!

I did hear back from my contact at Thule. They advised that when installing the rack, you would need to make sure that rack is sitting flush as well as the knob. There should not be any gaps as if there are, it will cause the rack to move about. You should also be using the tie down strap to also minimize movement of the rack.
I highly recommend etrailer.com for their excellent customer service. I spoke with Jean very late in the day about two parts needed to make my Thule bicycle rack compatible with the larger spare tire on my jeep. She went beyond the call to get it shipped on the same day, and it arrived sooner than expected. I was able to get the parts installed with relative ease and am one happy customer. Thanks!
This and the long mounting bracket were exactly what I needed to make my bike rack fit in my oversized spare. Fast shipping too, couldn't have had a better experience.
The product I ordered was great, however the real credit for the order goes to etrailer. I called the manufacture direct who stated we will call you back to see if the item is available and if we can sell it to you, never called back. I have ordered before from etrailer and had excellent results , so I was excited when I found I could do so again. the parts I needed were unique and hard to find, but etrailer had them, and at a more than reasonable price. Btw. I got the parts and they work perfectly.

I still use the bike rack and the part works great. I would have had to discontinue use of the bike rack with out this part.
Exactly what we needed to use the bike rack on a vehicle with a larger spare tire. We did need the long mounting bracket as well. Bike rack is solid!
Great attachment for over-sized tires when using the Thule Spare Me bike rack. But I hope you benefit from my mistakes ... I should have checked my bike rack prior to purchasing. Ends up even with my over-sized tires, the standard mount worked!!
My new spare tire is wider than the old one, so the bike rack's threaded rod no longer reached the post. I ordered this standoff extension and the Long Mounting Bracket 752-1425-002 on a Monday night and it they arrived that Thursday. Both were simple to install in a few minutes, and I hauled bikes on the bike rack Friday morning. Quick, easy, and solid: the perfect fix!
I ordered a stand-off and long mounting bracket for my Thule spare me 2 bike carrier. great price, great product, great fit. E trailer shipped it out at lightning speed and I am pleased with the product and E trailer.
I have been using a Thule Spare Me on my 2005 LJ for the last year. Unfortunately, when I upgraded to 31x10.5 Duratracs, my bike rack no longer fit on the spare tire. Before spending a ton of money on a new hitch rack, I did a quick google search and found these products. By combining the long mounting bracket and the long standoff extension adapter I was able to keep using my original bike rack. Installation was a breeze and shipping was insanely fast. I rarely leave reviews like this, but I will be a long-time customer if this kind of service keeps up!
Used this to mount the Thule rack on my large spare tire. This should help those with larger tires like me. Also, I put my body weight on it and it was solid, didn't move the bike rack at all. Glad I found this part, I recommend this to all fellow fat tire Jeepers out there.
The long mounting bracket for my Thule Spare Me bike rack was delivered in great time. The part was exactly as described an just what I needed to fit the bike rack onto my oversized spare tire.
I was looking to modify my existing Thule Spare Me bike rack to fit my oversized spare Jeep tire. This Long Stand Off extension adapter along with 752-1425-002 Long Mount Bracket worked. Shipped fast. No issues.
I recently changed tires on my jeep and my Thule bike rack no longer fit. Ordered this extension and it works perfect!
Product received was just as advertised. It added the length I needed to mount the Thule bike rack on the spare tire on my wife's Jeep. She is happy, I love it.
Works exactly as needed. Very durable. The extensions worked due to a larger rear tire for the Bike rack to be mounted.
Exactly what I needed and shipped quick ly
The products arrived quickly, well before my trip departure date, which I was a bit worried about since I ordered them only two weeks out. I had planned to order online, but called to be sure it could be delivered within a week and the man I spoke with was very helpful. He also let me know that phone orders are transferred to the warehouse a little quicker than online orders so I put the order in by phone. The parts are all in great shape and fit right in to my bike rack. Thanks for the great service!
the parts were exactly what i needed to make my spare tire bike rack fit over my over sized jeep spare tire. in five minutes i had my parts switched out and the bike rack installed. very quick delivery!!
Fast shipping, exactly what I ordered and high quality. The products seem higher quality than the Thule parts that came with the rack. Prices were competitive and very good communication.
Item as described and shipped promptly, thanks
I needed this part to go with my Thule spare tire bike rack in order for it on a bulky tire. The part is just what I needed. Shipping was fast too.
Arrived super quick. Part is exactly what I needed to make my rack work with an oversized spare tire. Always great service with etrailer!!!
I switched out my bike rack to a newer Jeep I bought and the rack did not fit. This piece made it fit like a charm and was way cheaper than having to buy a new tire rack fro my Jeep.
This coupled with the long mounting bracket is still not long enough for a 35 inch spare tire.

I wanted to reach out to you about your experience with the replacement Thule parts. I wanted to see if you would be willing to send a picture of the broken bolt.
