Will Replacement 2" Hitch Shank for Yakima HoldUp Fit Older HoldUp Bike Racks
Updated 01/12/2026 | Published 09/01/2024 >
Question:
I have an older model hold up rack and the tilt pin mechanism is broken and I don’t see any replacement parts That fit the existing quick release location as this has a welded on area and the replacement pins on your website have a threaded/ pin. I was going to simply replace the entire section but was unsure if it would fit.

Hey Alex,
I checked with Yakima for you and the older Yakima HoldUp bike racks are able to use the replacement shank, which is the following part number:
- Replacement 2" Hitch Shank for Yakima HoldUp Bike Racks # 8880580
Per Yakima, this will work for the HoldUp racks from 2008 onwards.

Hey Alex, did the replacement shank for your Yakima HoldUp rack end up fitting the older model like Yakima confirmed? Knowing how it worked out could help others with the same rack design. Your update could make it easier for the next person facing a broken tilt pin.
