Question:
The lock on the bottom part of my bike rack where it pivots is broken and I cannot pivot the rack down. If I buy a replacement lock how do I remove the old and install new one?

To replace the lock in your Swagman Bike Rack you will need the Replacement Foot and 2 inch Shank for Swagman Tilting 3 Bike Carriers, 1999-2008, # P132.
There is not a replacement lock or keys available for this bike rack.

Not having a way to replace the locks without having to buy the whole part seems short sighted and says something about these products. Most other reputable products containing lock, especially those that are numbered, would make one think that there should be some way to replace them. If not, the seller should offer replacement parts at a reasonable cost.

Swagman chose to not make the lock on that shank user replaceable. The design was changed back in 2008 and no longer uses a lock at the folding point. Swagman lock cores are not available to us as replacement parts.
