I have a solution for you but the Replacement Hitch Adapter # Y8890174 will not work for your Yakima Holdup # Y02445.

We have the 2-inch replacement tongue you can install on your bike carrier. It is part # 8880580.

Or, if you prefer to replace the spine and tongue on the bike carrier we also have that available. That is part # 8890277.

In order to converter a Yakima HoldUp for 1-1/4" to a Yakima HoldUp for 2" you will need the Replacement Tongue for Yakima HoldUp Bike Racks part #8880580 and the Replacement Hitch Bolt part #Y8890200. The lock core housing can be reused.
