You can replace the locks in the hooks with the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders TH450200. This will supply you with two lock cylinders and replacement keys that are keyed the same. These locks will likely not be keyed the same as other lock cores on your bike rack. If you know the code for the other locks on the rack, you can order the same code lock core. For example, if you had key N168, then you could order the cylinder part THLOCKN168 that would be keyed the same as the other locks on your rack. I have also linked all of the Thule locks available for you.

To swap out the Thule Lock Cores that come in the replacement upright for the original lock cores that came with your bike rack, you will want to use a Thule Universal Change Key # 853-1251

$12.19. I have linked a video showing how this change key works to swap out lock cores.

Thule Roof Rack 853-1251 Review - Video

James got my order all set and it was delivered quickly. Forgot to save my lock sets before I tossed out the damaged center post. New post fits perfectly. O lt suggestion would be to include in the description a reminder to save your old lock sets. 680596

Replacement lock cores are available if you need to replace the cores in this Replacement Upright. A kit like # TH450400
Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4
$59.95 would allow you to replace all of the locks in your Thule Doubletrack bike rack. Or if you know which key number you have, you can replace just the two missing lock cores by using THLOCKNXXX. For example, if your bike rack uses key N109, you would want # THLOCKN109
Replacement Lock Cylinder for Thule Racks and Carriers - N109
$12.91 and the change key # 853-1251
Universal Change Key for Thule Locks
$12.19.

This is an exact replacement for the original upright for the 990 Double Track Bike rack. If you are replacing a damaged bar on your existing rack be sure to have a Universal Change Key for Thule Locks (Item # 853-1251). One was provided with the original rack but if you can't find it be sure to order one along with the upright or you won't be able to swap your original locks over to the new bar which does not come with lock cylinders. Swapping the locks over is very simple, just unlock your old locks with the regular key and then using the change key wiggle the lock cylinder straight out of the old rack then install it in the new one. There are short videos on YouTube that show how to remove the locks and install them if you forgot how. Just look up replacing Thule locks on the search bar in YouTube. The upright base on our rack became bent beyond repair after encountering a severe dip in the road for some railroad tracks at highway speeds. The poor bike rack was no match for some really poor road engineering but it held together and kept the bikes safe for another two hundred miles till we got home. Very impressed in the redundancy of the wheel straps and support bar to keep the bikes safe even under severe conditions. We have driven thousand of miles with this rack, over highways and dirt roads and even up to the tops of a few mountains that have toll roads and not once did I ever feel this rack wasn't up to the job. Absolutely a great product and etrailer.com is a great place to deal with. Always ready to answer questions, super service as well as great prices. 5 stars once again! 444611

We ordered the double track bike carrier and Pat expedited the delivery to us. When we put it together a small part of the rack needed to be replaced. We contacted Pat and she got the part to us right away. We had it in time for our trip to Canada to visit the grand kids. We were impressed with the service we received from etrailer every step of the way. They are our go-to-place for any trailer needs. 267645

ecently purchased the hidden hitch class III round tube receiver and the Thule platform bike hitch model 990XT. While assembling the platform bike hitch I noticed the upright tube and hook assembly release clip would not release and allow the upright tube to go lateral. I called etrailer and they sent the replacement part quickly. The Thule hitch and the platform bike rack are high quality products and I strongly recommend that if you are in the market for a bike rack you visit etrailer online and watch the video and then confirm with a sales rep which bike rack will be best suited for your vehicle. Thank you etrailer for excellent service and a great product at a reasonable price. 233914

The product when first received had a few issues but etrailer customer service ( Madison) was able to resolve all of the issues satisfactorily. Enclosed please find the final product installed. 228711

I have never met with a more responsive and attentive group of people and organization. They helped me every step of the way, and when a part arrived with some damage they were very quick to respond to address the issue. Thank you etrailer and to your employees. 227548
