• How Does Old Lock Core Install Into Yakima Replacement DoubleDown Shank
  The DoubleDown Shank part # 8890340 comes with a knob that has an opening for a lock core to insert as well as a change key. What you will want to do is unlock your current knob on your rack and then insert the change key into it. With the key inserted you will be able to pull the lock core out. With the change key still inserted into the core you then will want to insert the core into the new shank. Once you pull out the change key it will be installed in the new knob.

• Replacement SpeedKnob and Wedge for Yakima DoubleDown Ace Bike Rack
  I checked with Yakima and the SpeedKnob and wedge is not offered separately for the Yakima DoubleDown Ace Bike Rack. Instead, it would need to be purchased with the Replacement Tongue Assembly for Yakima DoubleDown Ace Bike Racks part # 8890340 which is a complete assembly. We have spoken with Yakima in the past and the reason for this is because if the SpeedKnob and wedge were damaged then other components inside were likely compromised as well.

• Difference Between Yakima Replacement Shanks
  The difference between the two parts are the Yakima racks they accommodate and the parts they include.
