The Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Actuator #DX56FR you have is designed to be mounted on the end of the trailer frame as seen in the image below. Based on how your actuator was mounted the Actuator #DX89FR would best install like your current actuator. If you…

Hey Bruce, you'd want to make sure the tongue of your trailer is 3 inch wide to verify for sure that the Dexter actuator part #DX29FR fits. This is also designed for 2 inch hitch balls and the brake type needs to be disc.

Thanks so much for your purchase of the Inno Tire Hold 2 Bike Platform Rack #INH120. And that is a good question about how the rack is secured to your hitch, as it doesn't have a traditional hitch pin that goes all the way through, so I'll do…
For sag from towing a trailer the best recommendation I can make is actually a weight distribution system. Suspension enhancement will help level your truck while towing. But the advantage to a weight distribution system is that it levels the vehicle…
It sounds like the anti-rattle hitch bolt in your old Yakima ROC'nGate is causing issues by not tightening up all of the way. Assuming the bolt itself is what is bad you can just replace it with #Y8890200. When it comes to replacement parts for…
I do have a solution for you, however we do not have a dual hitch receiver like the Malone #MPG544 that you were looking at that has the kind of capacity you are needing to pull your 4,500 pound trailer. Your best option will be with the Curt…
The Inno bars like part #INB127 that you referenced have the same dimensions as the Thule square bars (7/8 by 1-1/4 inch). MOST Yakima accessories that are designed to fit their round bars will also fit the square Thule bars so you should be fine.…
The lower level of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer part #Y08129 wound be a great place to store a fishing kayak. I'm sure you could devise a way to attach some bunk boards but I really don't have any options for this so instead…

I love fishing, but getting my rods to the lake without them getting tangled or broken is a pain. Any good solutions?
nothing’s worse than showing up with a mess of rods or a snapped tip. A vehicle rod carrier is a game-changer. If you’ve got a roof rack, you can mount a Rhino-Rack Fishing Rod Carrier up top. If you drive a truck or SUV, something like the RodBunk Deluxe lets you suspend rods inside so they don’t get knocked around. Keeps everything neat, safe, and easy to grab when you’re ready to fish!
What about on my boat? I always feel like my rods are just rolling around everywhere.
A flush-mounted rod holder is a great way to keep them secure and within reach. You can install them right on the side of your boat so your rods are always ready. If you want extra protection, add backing plates or vinyl liners so they don’t get scratched up.Check out our Best Boat Accessories for Fishing FAQ to see the must-haves for any angler, from rod holders and livewells to trolling motors and depth finders.
Any tips for keeping my rods from getting tangled when I’m not using them?
Rod sleeves are the way to go! They’re these flexible covers that slide over your rods to keep them from getting all twisted together. Plus, they help protect them from scratches. If you leave hooks or lures attached, the sleeves keep everything contained so you don’t snag yourself when grabbing a rod.
I feel like I’m always scrambling for my gear when I head out. Any must-have fishing accessories to stay organized?
A good tackle box or gear bag is a lifesaver—having a spot for everything means no more digging around for that one lure you need. Also, if you do a lot of night fishing, grab a headlamp so you’re not fumbling around in the dark. And don’t forget a good cooler—keeping drinks cold and your catch fresh is a win-win!
