Hi Mike; the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633 you ordered does come with an integrated cable lock. If you're wanting to add an extra cable for additional security I'll give you a few different options. Keep in mind, any would be thief will ultimately be able to defeat the locks and bike rack with enough time and determination.
For a simple keyed locking cable you could use the etrailer Cable Lock - 10' Long - 5/16" Diameter - Steel # e98891. For a heavier cable and a combination lock the Master Lock Quantum Self-Coiling, Combination Cable Lock - 1/2" Diameter x 6' Long # 8122D would be a good choice. For a 1" thick cable with a built in alarm we also have the # TMX58FR. Personally I would get the Master Lock based on the price.

Thank you for the advice Robin. The etrailer 10’ lock, keyed alike looks the easiest way to go. I we be ordering shortly. Mike
