  • Is There a Replacement Key for Rola TX-104 Bike Rack?
  • For your Rola TX-104 4-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches - Tilting # 59401 does not have a specific lock core it uses. If you know the key number you had, then I've linked all our replacement options to help. If you do not know the key number, I can't help because the core doesn't' have a corresponding number on it. An option to keep using your bike rack is to simply use a cable lock like # e98891 and looping the cable through your safety chain loops on the hitch.

  • Tire Chains for Use on 2016 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE i-AWD
  • It is always wise to check a vehicle owners manual for any guidance or restrictions regarding use of tire chains.

I reviewed an online edition of the manual for your 2016 RAV4 Hybrid and it indicates low-profile S-Class chains can be installed on the front tires only. Check your printed owner's...

  • Can the Yakima SKS 8 Pack of Lock Cores Be Made to Match Existing Locks
  • There isn't going to be a set of 8 like the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07208 that is keyed to match your lock cores. This kit includes new keys, 8 lock cores and the change key so you'd essentially replace all of your older lock cores with this kit and the included keys would open all of the locks. Your lock cores that you mention are only available as singular replacements; so for your A132 lock core you'd need # Y8771-A132, for your A147 core you'd need # Y8771-A147,...

  • Hey Mark! Yes, we do have replacement keys for a LockRack roof rack (like the LockRack Series-X Universal Adjustable Watersport Carrier # LR24VR), and the replacement will depend on the code on the inside of your original key.

  • Difference Between Titan Chains TC2327 and TC2533 for P275/55-R20
  • Since tire chain fits are pretty specific and there's such a wide range of tire sizes there ends up being a bit of overlap for some sets of chains. This is the case for the two Titan chains you mentioned of # TC2327 and # TC2533 mostly but there also is a link thickness difference. The # TC2533 has a link thickness of 5.5 mm and the # TC2327 has a thickness of 3.7 mm. They will both fit equally as well and neither would have more rim protection than the other.

  • The key may not be in the right position or there could be something wrong with the ignition switch/lockout feature used to unlock the steering when the key is in the right position. I suppose it is possible that with a heavy enough key chain it could turn the key or damage the ignition cylinder there where the key is inserted. I would take the Golf to a Volkswagen dealer and explain what is happening and have them check things related to the steering lock/unlock mechanism when the...

  • Securing Trailer and Hitch Mounted Accessories to 2022 Subaru Crosstrek EcoHitch Receiver 306-X7365
  • I have a solution for you as EcoHitch does not offer any type of lock for the removable receiver for their EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7365. As you will be towing a trailer you can use a Padlock # ML140DLH to secure the tire chains to the receiver chain hoops. As most trailer chains are welded to the trailer frame this will require a lot more effort for the person looking to steal your trailer. For hitch mounted accessories like a bike rack you can use a Cable Lock...

  • Will BOLT Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches Fit a 2022 Toyota Tundra
  • The BOLT Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches part # BL7023584 will fit a 2022 Toyota Tundra so long as it does not have a center cut key. If you have a push to start then you'd just need to use the emergency key in the key fob. I have attached a photo below to clarify. That said, the locks when installed are coded to a specific key so you can't take it with you to a new vehicle even if it's the same make/model. If you find yourself needing a longer pin, you can reach...
