The red knob on my Frontloader stripped and caused my rack to be inoperable. This fit perfectly and was easy to install. Rack is good as new. Be sure to keep the original nuts as this only comes with the red knob and washer.

One year review. Replacing the knob has my older bike rack looking new.

by: Roger S. 08/08/2014

It is a replacement part... So, it does what it should. Make sure you keep the brass nut that goes on the end of the long bolt, as this replacement knob does not provide one.

by: Chris S. 08/23/2013

Fast shipping, product worked exactly as needed! I didn't realize it didn't come with the little brass nut cap, but luckily I still had the old one.
