In order to use an anti-rattle device like # F-315 the shank of the accessory has to be hallow. Most 1-1/4 inch shanks are solid. Also, the 1-1/4 inch Yakima HoldUp uses a threaded pin, # Y8880129, which acts as an anti-rattle device. There is a weldnut inside the shank of the bike rack and when the bolt is threaded through and tightened it pulls the shank tight to the side of the receiver.

If additional anti-rattle protection is needed you can use # MPG908. When tightened this device wedges itself between the receiver and the shank of the rack.
