• Bearing Buddy to Replace Tie Downs Turbo Lube Oil Bath 48394 Cap?
  
• Yes, Bearing Buddy # BB2441T-SS replaces Tie Down's Turbo Lube oil baths. I ran out to the warehouse and double checked that the outer dimension of the threaded portion matches the 2.33" of your Turbo Lube 48394 cap. You will want to remove the oil from the hub using shop towels and a mild detergent. Let them dry completely before packing them. Bearing Buddy also recommends using a High Performance Silicone Gasket Maker like Loctite's # LT37467 for the installation.

• Center to Center Spacing of the Car Top Kit U-Bolt for Older Yakima Cargo Box
  
• The U-Bolts that come in the Car Top Kit # CTC-18PARTS and the Rhino-Rack Kit # S280 measure 4" apart on center. It is possible to use a mounting kit like this on an older Yakima box if there isn't anything else available although you may need to drill new holes and seal the old ones with something like part # LT37467. There may be a replacement mounting kit from Yakima depending on what you have. If you can let me know the name of your Yakima cargo box and/or send me a picture of...

• Best Bulb and Socket Kit for Flat Towing 2018 Chevrolet Equinox
  
• I do have an opinion for you but the RoadMaster Bulb and Socket Set part # RM-155-2 is not a confirmed fit for you 2018 Chevrolet Equinox. For a bulb and socket kit that will work with your vehicle, I recommend using the Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs part # RM-155 for incandescent or part # RM-152-LED for LED. As long as you do not have the Premier edition then either of these kits will work well for you In order to install either kit you can also going to need a silicone...

• Replacement Mounting Hardware for a Sears Sport 20-SV Cargo Box
  
• They do not make any specific replacement parts for the Sears Sport 20-SV anymore however, you can certainly make the Replacement Mounting Hardware part # CTC-18PARTS work for you. The holes may not align perfectly but you can always drill new ones and use part # LT37467 to cover the old ones. This is a very popular option for the older Sears cargo boxes like what you have.

• Recommended Placement and Sealant for Installing Polar Multi-Purpose Ventilator PLR20
  
• The Polar Multi-Purpose Ventilator # PLR20 has a lever to close the vent when there is risk of heavy rain (please see the linked photo) but the vent will block most water since it also has down-facing louvers on the outside. The lever lets you choose how much airflow you want. Using one at each end of the trailer is a good way to provide cross-ventilation and for the most cooling I suggest placing the rear vent up high (so it can expel more hot air from inside the trailer) and the front...

• Can Yakima RocketBox Mount to 2016 Subaru Crosstrek With Factory Crossbars
  
• There is not a conversion kit available, but I reached out to Yakima in regards to attempting to mount this RocketBox, and they told me the following: "That is an older box but their (2016 Subaru Crosstrek) can carry it if the mounting holes are 4" apart. Have them measure the distance between the holes where the mounting hardware goes." What this means is that if your '16 Crosstrek has crossbars that are less than 4", which it should, then you should be able to use use this cargo box.

• How to Install a Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket?
  
• The Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part # 59504, is an attachment for roof bars that are attached to the car. They do not require any additional drilling to assemble. If you do not have raised side rails, I recommend the Thule WingBar kit, consisting of - 47 inch WingBars, part # TH711200 in silver or # TH711220 in black - Podium Roof Mount Feet, part # TH460R - Thule Fit Kit, part # THKIT3068 If you do have raised side rails, I recommend the same WingBars except you need the...

• Alternate Mounting Hardware for Yakima SpaceBooster Cargo Box on 2015 Subaru Outback Wagon
  
• It is not a huge deal to add a few new mounting holes to the bottom of an ABS plastic cargo box like the Yakima SpaceBooster. A cordless drill and appropriately-sized drill bit will make short work of it. I would avoid using a heated implement for making the holes since it could be a bit messy and could make it harder to control the size of the hole. The things to keep in mind are that you want to drill no more additional holes than absolutely necessary so measure, check and re-check....

• Replacement Mounting Hardware for Subaru Factory Cargo Box
  
• To replace the mounting hardware for your Subaru/Thule Cargo box, you'll want to use the Replacement EasySnap Mounting Hardware # TH05820 . The U-bolts in this kit are 3-1/4 wide x 3" long x 1/4" diameter and will fit on most factory and aftermarket crossbars. If your existing U-bolts are a different dimension, please let me know what the measurements are and I may be able to find a more suitable replacement. The other option to make those work in the event that they don't line up with...

• Replacement Locking Hardware for Thule Frontier 668 Rooftop Cargo Box
  
• I reached out to my contact at Thule and the bars you are seeking are not available as a replacement option. They have discontinued those style locks so you will be forced to improvise or upgrade. If you choose to improvise, I recommend installing the Replacement Bottom Lock Bracket for SportRack Explorer Cargo Box # SR00841 and the Replacement Lock Core and Key for SportRack Explorer Cargo Box - Qty 1 # SR03807. This will give you the lock and the latch needed to secure your box,...

• How to Mount Yakima SpaceCase Cargo Box to Factory Crossbars on 2020 Subaru Forester
  
• I do have a solution for you, however I reached out to my contact at Yakima and he said the Universal MightyMounts # Y03590 aren't compatible with your older SpaceCase Cargo Box. The mounting hardware for the SpaceCase is a bit different and you won't be able to properly attach the MightyMount clamps. Your best route for mounting the SpaceCase to the wider aero-style factory crossbars on your new Forester is to replace its existing hardware with part # 8870098. This kit consists of...

• 1991 Yakima RocketBox Replacement Mounting Hardware Compatible with Aero Bars
  
• Your old Yakima RocketBox has mounting holes that are 4-1/2 inches on center, so there isn't a direct fit we carry. Instead I recommend using the Replacement Hardware Kit for Searsbox Cargo Box # TH05603. This will fit your Malone Aero bars like # MPG215 on your 2015 Toyota RAV4 as well as the factory bars on your 2008 Honda Pilot. I recommend using the gasket maker # LT37467 to seal the extra holes in your box to prevent water entry at the unused locations.

• Recommended Roof Rack and Cargo Carrier for 2013 Toyota Corolla
  
• For your 2013 Toyota Corolla, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2, the 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and the Custom DK Fit Kit # DK152. This is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. I also recommend the metal lock cores # RRVA-LEC4 for when you use the T-channel mounting for accessories that have that mount that fits in the slot on top of your crossbars instead of wrapping around them. Then for your rooftop cargo carrier, I recommend the Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo...

• Replacement Lock for Sears Sport 15-CAV Rooftop Cargo Box
  
• Your Sears Sport 15-CAV rooftop cargo box was made by Thule. Thule used several types of locks over the years and the best option that is still offered is part # SR03807. This may not be identical to the original but it is the best option we have. This kit is shown in the linked video and it consists of a lock mechanism and a key. If you have open holes in the box these can be sealed up with a silicone sealant like # LT37467. This will help protect the contents inside the box.

• Replacement External Lid Hinge for Yakima RocketBox Rooftop Cargo Box
  
• On cargo boxes like the Yakima RocketBox series the external hinges and most other components that are riveted into place at the time of manufacture are not user-replaceable. So this just means you might need to drill out the rivets on the bad hinge, remove it completely and install a new one using more conventional nuts-and-bolts hardware. We do offer two replacement hinges, parts # TH13227 from Thule and # SR03396 from SportRack, and one of these will work fine on another brand of...

• Replacement Locks and Keys for Thule Ski Box with Key Broken Off Inside Lock Cylinder
  
• With a key broken off inside the lock, your only option is to drill out the lock and replace the core. For the replacement cores and keys for the matching set, I recommend the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 2 # TH450200. With the key broken inside the lock, the master key won't work, so carefully drilling or calling a locksmith to drill for you are the only options. You may be able to drill into the key directly enough to get a bite so you can pull the broken key out and...

• You can absolutely remove the factory tail lights and replace them with a style you prefer like the Sealed, Streamline LED Trailer Stop, Turn and Tail Light, 3-Function, 11 Super Diodes # STL79RB. These are designed to be used as a replacement light and not simply an additional light, but they can be used for either purpose. I've attached a video of this installation for you to assist.

• Alternate EasySnap Mounting Kit TH05820 Compatibility with Thule Summit Cargo Box 631
  
• Back 'atcha, Georgetown. The original mounting hardware for the Thule Summit rooftop cargo box 631 is similar to the current QM3 kit # TH04997, but our Thule contact said it is possible to update the hardware to the EasySnap Mounting Kit # TH05820. The alternate EasySnap hardware will be a tighter fit than the stock hardware but it does work. Any extra holes in the bottom of the box that will no longer be needed for the new hardware kit can be sealed up using silicone sealant # LT37467. You...

• Can the Curt T-Connector be Permanently Mounted on the Outside of a 2019 Toyota Highlander
  
• Yes, you definitely can mount the Curt T-Connector # C56217 next to your hitch receiver so that it is readily available. We haven't had any customers come in and ask for it to be installed that specific way yet (January 2019) so I don't have a video, but there should be a grommet in the rear cargo area of your 2019 Toyota Highlander that you can push the 4-Way Flat connector through. If you need to cut the grommet to push the connector through then you can use some sealant like the...

• What is the Diameter of the Crosstube on the Draw-Tite Hitch for a 2018 Dodge Journey
  
• The inner diameter of the crosstube on the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 76225 is 1-1/2". Therefore, a trailer hitch cover designed for a 2" receiver tube opening like the Rubber Hitch Cover part # 22282 will not work for this application. With that being said I am certain you could find something to work for this application with just a bit of modifications. I have attached a sample install video for you as well.

• Ground Clearance on Curt C12225 vs Draw Tite 36241
  
• We had the opportunity to test fit hitches on the Pontiac Grand Prix and found that the hitch with the greatest clearance was the Draw-Tite hitch, # 24660. From the bottom of the receiver to the ground was right around 9" on this hitch. The other two hitches, Draw-Tite # 36241 and Curt # C12225 both had just 7 1/2 inches of clearance from the bottom of the receiver to the ground. So, your best bet will be Draw-Tite hitch # 24660. For the installation, it will be helpful to have a nylon...
