Without the extension piece installed the Yakima LongArm Bed and Roof Load Extender # Y01149-1150 sits 9" out and 46-3/4" up from the center of the hitch pin hole (see attached photo). The extension piece adds between 7-1/2" and 21-1/2" to the height so with the extension you're looking at 9" out and then 54-1/4" min to 68-1/4" max up from the center of the hitch pin hole.

If the lock core is not accepting the key the problem lies with it and not the latch like part #Y8880348. If you can get the flap of the core to slide up you would want to use a spray lubricant like WD-40 and use the straw of it to direct the…
