This is an old bike rack, early 2000s, I think. The Thule Cradle replacement part number is 753-2757. I need Replacement cradle # 853-7887 and the strap to replace it, right?? would buy two for matching cradles

Expert Reply:
Originally, your Thule 947 Hitching Post bike rack used cradles that had straps built into them. Thule doesn't make those cradles any more, but the Thule # 853-7887 would be the closest replacement, assuming that the bar on your bike rack is 1 inch in diameter. For each bike, you would need two # 853-7887 cradles and two # 852-3006-001 straps.
