  • Will Softride Shuttle Pad Tailgate Pad Protect Tailgate When Down Using In-Bed Camper
    Hey David! That isn't the main purpose of the Softride Shuttle Pad Tailgate Pad # SR26457 but it will protect your tailgate while it is down. Keep in mind, you probably won't get 100% coverage, particularly on the sides. This is 61" wide so I would compare that to your tailgate to see if it works for you. The only one that is wider is the Yakima # Y38AR at 62" but it is shorter so you will have less protection overall. What kind of camper do you have?

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack For Electric Bike With Fat Tire
    We have ways to carry ebikes in your truck bed, but not with the Swagman rack. What you can use instead - if your bike weighs no more than 50 lbs - is the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack # TH93VR, which can carry bikes with tires up to 5 inches wide. If your bike weighs more than 50 lbs you would need the Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad # Y38AR.

  • How to Carry Ebikes on 2021 Toyota Tundra Towing a Camper Trailer
    Hey Todd, So the only solution we can offer for your 2021 Toyota Tundra, since you need to transport electric bikes, can't use your trailer frame, and can't use a front hitch, the best thing to do would be to use a tailgate pad that allows you to transport your bikes in the bed of your truck. For that use the Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad # Y38AR.

  • Does the Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad Have a Weight Capacity
    The Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad # Y38AR does not have a weight capacity for the exact reason you mentioned. The truck will handle all of the weight. When it comes to the straps those don't have a weight rating either because they just help to keep a bike from shifting on the pad. When you start to get into heavier E-Bikes it's always a good idea to use an actual bike rack for those because they are nicer bikes and you won't want them to be resting on the frame like that - at least for...

  • Recommended Tailgate Bike Pad For 2018 GM Sierra 3500
    I recommend the Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad and Bike Carrier for Full-Size Trucks - 62" Wide, part # Y38AR. It is Yakima's full size truck tailgate pad. The carrier is padded on the top to protect your bikes with a felt like underside of the carrier to protect the finish of your truck. In addition, there are six padded cradles that will keep your bikes secure via their down tube while protecting the finish of your bikes. It has a stow away HindSight flap that will allow you to have use...

  • Can Tailgate Access Flap of Yakima Tailgate Bike Rack Have Camera Access at all Times
    Hey Laurie, if you wanted to have the tailgate access flap open all the time on the Yakima Tailgate Bike Rack part # Y38AR you would need to fold it back and tuck it under the top portion of the cover to allow your rear camera to see behind you.
