Hi all.

Any ideas to relocate the camera higher?

I was thinking maybe the tailgate spiloiler and a patch cable.

I leave my bike rack on pretty much all the time and the View is pretty blocked.

Thx.

Did you ever figure out if this is possible? I bought a relocation kit for my 2021 ranger that worked great plug and play with the built in screen. Haven’t had any luck finding any such kits for the 6G ranger.

I dont have a solution for you but am curious about clearances. I have the single tray version and when laid out flat the Ford logo hits it and doesn't allow full opening of the tailgate...do you have this issue? (mine is not a Raptor and that may make a difference...)

Same. The hitch is really high up to the bumper compared to my previous Honda Ridgeline where I could open the tailgate with the rack flat. I think the only option is to buy a drop hitch extension of some kind.

Also I have not had time to look into camera relocation but still want it.

I ended up using a swingout for mine.

Santa Cruz soon to be Ranger XLT
I just mounted my 1up, and I am not happy that in a single bike,my tailgate hits the rack. With the 2nd rack, unless I lay it in drop mode, my tailgate is off limits... I think I am going to have to get the RakAttach

The thing I like about the RakAttach is the ability to drill an additional hole in the receiver in order to push it all the way in.
