Changing from 2” to 1 1/4” On A Bike Rack

Updated 04/07/2021 | Published 04/05/2021

Question:

I have an older model Yakima bike rack 5 years? that I’ve been using on my wife’s SUV. It has a 2” hitch. I’d like to use the bike rack on my smaller Toyota, on which I’m installing a 1 1/4” hitch. It appears the 2” adapter on the bottom of the Yakima bike rack just needs to be removed si it fits into a 1 1/4”. Is that it? It appears to require a large Allen wrench that I don’t have, but I’ll figure that out. Attached a picture of the bottom of the bike rack. Also mistakenly attached another random picture that you can ignore. ??
