Trailer Hitch or Trunk Mount Bike Racks for a 2009 Pontiac Vibe GT- The spoiler on the 2009 Pontiac Vibe GT is going to be the limiting factor for installing the KingJoe or QuickBack bike racks on your vehicle. If it is the same spoiler that is installed on the standard Pontiac Vibe then either one of these bike racks will work, and will be adequate for normal freeway driving. You will need to check to be sure the spoiler is not configured differently on your vehicle.
Your second suggestion is the one I would choose. A hitch and hitch mounted bike rack are av

- According to Yakima, the item you selected, Yakima QuickBack 2 Bike Trunk Rack # Y02621, will fit your 2010 Mazda 3, 5-door. The 3 bike version of this rack, QuickBack 3 Bike Trunk Rack # Y02622, will also fit your vehicle.

- Will the Yakima QuickBack 2 Scratch my Bike Frame and Will it Fit a Ford Escort ZX2
- The Yakima QuickBack bike racks have plastic shielding on the arms, soft pads at each of the cradles, and soft rubber straps to secure the bikes in the cradles. As long as you keep the cradle and strap free of debris, you should not have any scratching problems. There are no metal surfaces that the bike would come in contact with if loaded properly.
It should fit your Escort ZX2 with the factory spoiler. In order to know for sure, I would need the year. If you write back with the year, I will

- Are There Trunk or Hatch Mounted Bike Racks Available for a 2005 Honda Odyssey

There are other options available. The most versatile being a hitch and hitch mounted bike rack. A hitch will allow you to not only put a bike rack on your Odyssey, but also cargo carriers and many other hitch mounted accessories. We have several hitches available for your Odyssey. I recommend using 2 inch hitches as there are more accesso

- Can I Get a Replacement Key for a Yakima Roof Rack Q-Tower
- You can get a replacement key for your Yakima rack. Since the number you referenced is A138, you will need replacement key # Y8772-A138. Replacement keys are sold in quantities of 1. I recommend getting a couple and storing one in a safe place. To order more than one of the same key just change the number in the quantity box.

- Hardware Size to Install the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack
- The hardware for the Yakima BlockHead bike rack, # Y01117, is not included. Basically you can use any hardware that will fit and that is appropriate for the surface you wish to mount the rack on. I recommend a fastener that requires an uncommon tool to help deter theft. The instructions mention using 1/4 inch (6mm) bolts or screws, washers, and locking nuts. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.

- Will a Five Bike Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Actually Hold Five Bikes

The cradles can move along the arms to adjust the space between the bikes. I have included a link to a video review and a link to the installation instructions for you.
The Thule Vertex, # TH9030, offers more space on the rack arms to fit the bikes. The arced shape of the arms provides more space and makes loading bikes easi

- Will the Yakima SpareTime Spare Tire Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara
- The Yakima SpareTime spare tire mount bike rack, # Y02598, includes two extensions which allow it to fit various tire sizes. As long as the spare tire on your 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara has a width of P195 to P318, the bike rack will fit. The width will be the first part of the tire size number on the sidewall of the spare.
It looks like the 2006 Grand Vitara uses either a 225/65-17 or 225/70-16 tire size so either one is compatible with the SpareTime bike rack.

- Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2010 Ford Fusion
- If you click the provided link, you can see all the trunk mounted racks that are a confirmed fit for your Fusion.
All of the racks shown are compatible with factory spoilers. Of the racks shown, I would recommend taking a look at the Thule Raceway, part # TH9001. Because leaving the rack permanently installed on the vehicle is not recommended, having a rack that is quick and easy to install and remove is an important feature. Instead of the 6 buckle-adjusted straps used by other racks that ha

- Will the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 Clear the XM Antenna on a 2013 Honda CR-V EXL
- To determine if the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14, # Y07192, will clear the XM antenna on your 2013 Honda CR-V, you will need to take one measurement. Measure from the center of the factory bar back 44-1/2 inches. If the XM antenna is further back than 44-1/2 inches then the box will not interfere with it.
The back of the box will stick out at least 12 inches from the center of the rear bar.
If you determine there will be interference then the next box down in size, the RocketBox Pro 12, # Y0719

- Trunk Mount Bike Rack, Trailer Hitch, and Hitch Mount Bike Rack Recommendations For a 2011 Acura MDX
- We do have several 3-bike trunk mount racks that will fit your 2011 Acura MDX, see link, however they all require the use of the glass hatch hook accessory (included). This will limited the capacity of the trunk mount racks to 2 bikes.
To carry 3 bikes I recommend installing a trailer hitch, # 13354, and using a hitch mount bike rack. The most popular 3-bike rack is the Swagman Trailhead, # S63365. It includes anti-sway cradles, the ability to tilt and the arms can fold down. I have included

- Roof Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara with Factory Roof Rack
- Based on the picture you sent of the roof rack on your 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara it looks like you have bars that are very similar to Thule Rapid Aero or AeroBlade bars or Whispbars. We do have several roof mount bike racks that will fit these bars.
For roof mounted bike racks, there are basically 2 styles: those that require removing the front wheel and those that do not. Out of all the options (which I have linked individually below) I recommend the Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103 if you do not

- Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a Carbon Frame Bike and 2012 Ford Escape
- Most owners of carbon frame bikes shy away from hanging style racks for the reasons you are concerned about. It is possible with any rack that it could scuff or otherwise damage the carbon frame. If you are going to go with a hanging style bike rack I recommend the Thule Helium Aero, # TH9042. It has advanced cradles with road dampening technology and soft surfaces that are much less likely to damage a carbon frame. The straps have been re-designed to prevent over tightening which can also damag

- Can Yakima HullRaiser Kayak Carriers be Mounted On a Cargo Trailer
- You will need to mount feet on the side rails of your trailer using Yakima LandingPads, # Y00227. Then you can add Control Towers # Y00214. For bars, it really depends on what width you need to reach across the trailer. There are 48 inch bars, # Y00408, 58 inch bars # Y00409, 66 inch bars # Y00410, and 78 inch bars # Y00411.
With the crossbars installed you could then mount the Hullraisers, # Y04039. I have linked a video review of the HullRaiser for you.

- Recommended 4-Bike Rack for Ford F150
- All of the bicycles you mention would be compatible with either rack. I checked out some online images of the bikes you referenced, and noticed that they have steeply-angled top tubes. Because of this, the bikes would be carried at an angle on the rack, which could possibly compromise your ground clearance or place the tire of the rear-most mounted bikes in pretty close proximity to the exhaust pipe.

- Trailer Jack Recommendations for a Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer
- I think your best option would be to get a Fulton Snap-Ring Swivel Marine Jack # F1410050149. This should attach to your 2 inch by 2 inch trailer frame and provide you with a light weight jack for your Yakima Rack and Roll trailer.
You should be careful not to exceed the weight capacity of your trailer, I am a little worried that you might be since you need a trailer jack on such a lightweight trailer.

- Trailer Hitch Mount 4-Bike Rack for a 2007 Toyota RAV4 and Traveling Long Distances
- The Thule Vertex # TH9029 actually measures 12 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the upright bar on the rack so there will be plenty of clearance. I have included a link to a video showign the rack on a 2009 Toyota RAV4. on the Apex, # TH9025, there is a little less clearance to the back of the upright bar, 9-1/2 inches.

- Bike Rack Recommendation for 5 Bikes While Towing a Pop Up Camper
- The Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount # D210 would be an excellent choice to be used in conjunction with towing your current pop up trailer and a hitch mounted bike rack that has a carrying capacity of 5 bikes.
The # D210 is compatible with and an existing 2 inch hitch and provides a 2 inch receiver for accessory use. This hitch has a tongue weight capacity of 750 pounds total, and a receiver capacity of 350 pounds. Therefore the combined weight of the bike rack and bikes cannot exceed 350 pounds.

- Trailer Hitch Mount Swing Away Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2011 Acura MDX
- If your genuine Acura hitch has a 2 inch receiver then we have several swinging bike racks that you could use including the SwingDaddy that you have referenced # Y02422.

Both racks feature anti-sway cradles and the arms can fold down when the rack is not in use. I have included some links to videos showing the racks for you.

- What is the Interior Width of the Yakima MegaWarrior Roof Mount Cargo Basket
- On the Yakima MegaWarrior, # Y07080, the overall width is 48 inches. The larger tubing on the basket is 1-1/8 inches in diameter so the internal width would be 48 - 2-1/2 inches to equal 45-1/2 inches. That would leave 14-1/2 inches of width after your 31 inch spare is in the basket. This would be enough width for one bike but probably not 2 without facing the bikes in opposite directions.
Another issue is the weight of a basket, spare tire and wheel, and 2 bikes. You will need to make sure t
