Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today, we're gonna take a real quick look at this Thule Replacement Hitch Bolt. This is going to replace one hitch bolt that secures the shank of the Goalpost load bar or the hitch-mounted bike rack to your trailer hitch receiver. Now, on your screen, I am including all of the Thule products that this is going to fit. So as you can see, this is going to fit the Goalpost hitch-mounted load bar, and then the Parkway bike racks, and then the Vertex 5 bike rack, and then the Vertex 4 bike rack, and then finally, the Vertex Swing 4 bike rack, and I've included all of the model numbers there for you for your reference. And as you no doubt know, this also is going to install with a washer and a lock washer, so if you are also in need of those items, I am including our item numbers there on your screen for you. You can just take the item number and put it in the search field of our website, and it will take you to those items if you are in need of them.

So this hitch bolt is exactly like the one that you are needing to replace. It is directly from Thule, so you can trust that it's going to fit right in place of the original, you're not gonna have to worry about compatibility issues or anything like that. So if you are needing to replace one hitch bolt that secures the shank of the Goalpost load bar or hitch-mounted bike rack to your trailer hitch receiver, this is going to be exactly what you need. That's gonna conclude our brief look today, I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.

Genuine Thule product. Part was delivered quickly. Pictures and descriptions helped me determine it was the correct part for an older bike rack.
by:
Perfect match for the bolt that was lost. Order was shipped promptly. However, it took several days to get through the Denver USPS center- NOT Etrailers fault
by:
Worked and did great for Thule sweeden bike rack
by:
Thisnis the wrong part. I have called and lwft messages and emailed many times for return info and help locating the correct part. At forst I got some call-backs but i was working. Since then Ive left about 5 messages that noone returns.
by:
Everything worked well. Thank you.
by:
Exactly what I needed
by:
Received part quickly and it fit perfectly.
by:
I ordered these parts to modify my Thule 916 to carry an Elliptigo in addition to my two road bikes. Ordering was quick and easy plus shipping was upgraded at no charge. Do yourself a favor and order all your racks and parts from these guys. I know I will!
by:
The bolt and washer are fine, but $30 for the bolt, washer and shipping is a bit pricey.
by:
Item was sent fast. Very good Price. Would recommend !
by:
Exactly what I needed for my older T2 rack
by:
The bolt I needed was very hard to find but it was in stock and I received it very quickly. Good and reliable service.
by:
Got a good product just as advertised
by:
Wrong size. Standard measurement equivalent would have been helpful.
by:
Just 3 inches shorter than what was required- my fault though and have reordered another, consistent, with the required length!

Thanks for the concern and follow up.

Semper Fi!
by:
Good product, fits perfectly. Delivery was fast and e-tailer did a good job communicating the order status. I will do all of my trailer shopping with this company!
by:
I received an email encouraging me to write a follow up review one year out from my purchase. Well, one year out, and I STILL have not received the item. Nor have I received a refund. eTrailer was more than happy to blame everything on USPS, even though USPS claims etrailer requested the package be returned to sender. So now I'm out the price of the item, the shipping cost, and the money I paid USPS to reroute the package (because eTrailer's "Return to Sender" request superseded my request to reroute). Next time, I order elsewhere.
by:
Excellent service and timely delivery of product! I was desperate as I lost the screw that attaches my Thule bike rack to the hitch. Thought I could run to the hardware store and grab a screw. Nope! etrailer came to the rescue. Thanks!
by:
Had a great experience with etrailer. Needed a bolt for my Thule Bike Rack Hitch. No one else could get me one. They delivered quickly and on time as I had a trip coming up and wanted to take a couple bikes.
by:
I live in Upstate New York and owned a Thule bike rack for a long time...but during a recent move I lost the bolt holding the rack to the hitch. I tried to find a replacement at local hardware and bike stores, but no luck (and a few wasted $$$). Then, I saw the internet your internet site with the right bolt right there on the screen. I placed an order for two of them (to be safe....one long and the other short) and they arrived at my house forthwith in a couple of days. Happily both bolts fit perfectly. I am most impressed with the quality of your service...you emailed me about my order, the delivery date, and my satisfaction.....All EXCELLENT. My bike and I are on the road again...thanks.
by:
Replaced my late 90's Jeep Cherokee Sport with a new Toyota 4Runner. The Toyota has a 2" receiver, so I needed a solution for my older Thule Hitching Post Pro 4-bike rack. Ideally, it would be nice to get this bolt about 3/4" longer, so it could go deeper (maybe all the way through) the 2" receiver and the adapter to the other side. But it worked good enough as-is. My old bolt was showing some age. Once I inserted the Thule adapter and the bike rack, I tightened it down and the rack did not jiggle around at all while driving. Problem solved!
by:
The BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE I have ever experienced!!!
A friend asked to borrow our Thule 5-bike hitch for their summer vacation...as I pulled it out I realized it was missing a bolt. I found etrailer on line and called their customer service...They were amazing ...expedited the bolt the same day :)
by:
This was a simple purchase for a replacement bolt that I lost on my Thule bike rack. Service was great and I will remember your company in the future
by:
The missing bolt for my Thule bike rack worked perfectly and allowed me to use my mike rack on my car. An excellent product that is hard to find in bike stores but easy to lose.

Thank you
by:
This bolt was just what I needed for my Thule bike rack. I should have ordered the washer and lock washer at the same time, penny wise dollar foolish. live and learn. Thanks for all the help.
