Hey guys, Zach here at trailer.com. And today, I'm going to be showing you the Yakima HoldUp hitch hardware kit. Now, this is a great replacement if you've lost or damaged any of the hardware for the hitch mounting portion of this bike rack. So we lost our pin here in the shop and while we we're trying to find the one that worked, we stripped out the anti-rattle threads on the inside of this shank. So I'm going to walk you through how to just do the whole replacement.And before we get started, I'm going to show you everything that comes included with this. So it's going to come with a new anti-rattle bolt, a clip, a lock washer, and a new nut that's going to go on the inside of this piece here, that slides down in the shank.
And that's what our bolt we'll thread into. And the only tool I'm going to need today is just a small flat-head screwdriver. And if we come in close, I'll show you how to get this old one out.On each side of the shank, there's going to be these small holes. And essentially what we're doing is we're going to push this piece in, and we're just going to pry it until we can get it up out of those holes. All right, I've got it loose.
Just keep prying it up. Let's see, I broke that one coming up, but this was already stripped out anyway. So next, we can take our nut and this plastic housing here, and I'm going to drop it in, put it in place. And then I'm just going to put it down in there, and then we'll squeeze this top right here so it gets inside the shank, and it's pretty tight. That way it holds itself in place.
Might take a little bit of pressure there. There we go. And then that's just going to lock in place and then we can take our bolt, put that lock washer on there, it's just going to thread right in.And then we can just secure it with that clip on the other side. But also, since this bike rack comes with a lock, that's going to work out just fine. So as you can see, I got this bike rack up and running in just a matter of minutes, it's going to save you a ton of money, so you don't have to buy a whole new bike rack.
And we did this on a two-inch version, but we also have the inch and a quarter version of the anti-rattle bolt replacement, if you need that.But overall, this was really quick and easy to get this back to normal. All I needed was a screwdriver. If you need just the nut or the plastic housing that goes on the inside of the shank, we sell that by itself. But I think just getting the whole kit is a good idea, so you at least have a spare bolt just in case the original comes up missing.Yakima makes a lot of different replacement parts for this bike rack. We offer stuff like the straps, and cradles, and cable locks. So if you have any kind of issues with it, we're here to help you out. Yakima builds these with the intention of you holding onto them for a long time. So if you have any questions on getting your bike rack fixed, just let us know. But that's going to do it for our look at the Yakima HoldUp replacement hardware kit for your hitch.
