Question:
I have a 2011 Subaru Outback with the factory installed 1 1/4 inch hitch. Will the Yakima DoubleDown 4 bike rack fit this setup? Thanx, Chris

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Yakima DoubleDown 4 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack, item # Y02424, should work with the hitch on your 2011 Subaru Outback, as long as the hitch is a Class II hitch. You will need to verify the rating of your hitch with your owners manual or the vehicle dealer. Sometimes the hitch class is stamped in the hitch or indicated on a sticker on the hitch cross tube near the receiver.
You may also need the Yakima Tube Top Bike Adapter Bar, item # Y02531, if you will be carrying womens or childrens bikes on the DoubleDown.
