Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. And today, we're gonna take a brief look at this replacement anti-rattle hitch bolt for your Yakima bike racks. This is going to replace the threaded anti-rattle hitch bolt for your Yakima BigHorn 4, DoubleDown, FlipSide, HoldUp, or SwingDaddy bike racks. And this is also going to work with your Yakima DryDock boat support carriers as well. On your screen, as you can see, I have included the item numbers for you for your reference.
And as you no doubt know, this bolt secures your hitch mounted bike or boat carrier to your vehicle's hitch receiver. And it includes everything that you see here. You're gonna get one half-inch hitch bolt, two washers, and one clip. So, whenever you're going to put this into place, you just want to make sure that you put the split washer under the head of the bolt and then follow that up with the flat washer. And then you're gonna tighten this down using a 3/4 of an inch or 19 millimeter wrench.
You, of course, wanna make sure that it's nice and tight. And put the clip into place and you are in business. Well, 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..

Perfect replacement of lost hitch pin.
Very quick standard shipping. Perfect fit replacement part for threaded bolt/pin that went missing from our 15-yr-old(ish) rack. Thanks!
Perfect fit for my Yakima ridgeback tiltaway bike rack!
Bike hitch pin was exactly what I needed. Excellent website for efficient purchase coupled with outstanding customer service ensured that I will remain a customer.
Fast shipping and high quality parts and way CHEAPer than Yakima. Thank you etrailer for great service.
Fits great on the new car. The receiver is wider than our other car.
Efficient and accurate. Thank you
Key is too small to engage the threaded sleeve in the hitch; looks like me Yakima swing-away rack was discontinued in 2008, and needs a key close to the 11mm range.
Pics attached of the Yakima Spine, I am guessing you will be off for the Holiday weekend and have been great help, thanks and let me know . I have taken pics indoor lighting and direct sunlight
the fit is great for what I was using it for (Yakima 2 timer hitch bike rack). the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the clip on the end to prevent the bolt from coming out completely if it comes loose is kind of weak, and given that it is a safety feature I think it should be stiffer/harder to get off the end of the bolt.
Perfect fit great quality
Bolt is exactly what I needed
Excellent service and exactly what I ne eded!
Fit perfectly!
Exactly what I needed to get my bike rack secured, delivered quickly. Thanks y'all.
Worked perfect on my Yakima bike rack.
Great service and quick shipping.
Not much to say for a bolt other than, it works! The part fit as expected for the now ancient Yakima bike rack (Double Down) we have.
Ordered part I needed and response said it would be delivered on Friday and Friday it was delivered! Great communication with NicoleK@etrailer. Very satisfied with product.
This is a great product. It fits the bike rack perfectly, just like the original one we lost. Just used it on a trip to Yosemite.
This bolt is good quality, but unfortunately the wrong size for my Bighorn 4 rack. Yakima told me that my rack took a 1/2" bolt. Apparently my Bighorn 4 was manufactured between 2003 and 2006, and takes a 5/8" bolt. Luckily etrailer is excellent to work with and made my return simple and quick.
A bit pricey but it's hard to find anywhere else and less expensive than buying directly from Yakima. Customer service was great and it arrived as stated.Fit Yakima Doubledown with no issues.
Jeremy H provided excellent customer service, taking the extra steps to insure that I received the correct part for a specific application.
Exact replacement for my bike rack hitch bolt.
Perfect fit for my Yakima Hold Up 2 bike rack. My rack is a 1.25” but I used a spacer to make it fit into a 2” hitch. This pin works Perfect and keeps the rack nice and snug. Took forever to find the right fit. Wish I had tried etrailer first.
