3:30 Critical tip while installing bolts! The offical Yakima installation video did not mention it! THANKS!

Can you show a demo with this same or similar setup on a vehicle with a rear mounted spare tire 🛞? I’m very curious to see if it’ll have clearance

Hello. We may not get the opportunity for this type of video in the near future, we'd encourage a visit to one of our stores to discuss the fit with one of our experts, maybe even arrange for a test fit. Thanks! www.rackattack.com/stores/

Yakima makes a hitch extender that allows for clearance and is compatible with the EXO. Extends 7.25”.

Can you switch the way it swings out.? If I want it to swing out to the left rather than right. I have a trunk door that swings to the right already.

Hello. Currently the SwingBase is only offered in a passenger-side swing. Thanks!

I ordered the exo base . But it looks like it's in the way of the exhaust. I'm reading that people have their stuff melted or catch on fire from the exhaust. I have a 2018 kia sorento and and the hitch is a bit recessed. Would you recommend that I buy an extender that raises it up ?

Hello. The Yakima EXO SwingBase is compatible with the the Yakima StraightShot which will provide 7-1/4" of extension but no rise: www.rackattack.com/hitch-bike-racks/yakima-straightshot/ Thanks!

You did not show how to remove the EXO GearLocker from the SwingBase! That's why I watched!

@rackattack Жыл бұрын

Hello. You're right, we lifted it off in the beginning but didn't show that first it must be unlocked and the turn knobs loosened, basically the reverse from the step where it was placed back on and the knobs tightened and locked. Thanks!

I generally live by the buy once, cry once motto but this is way overpriced! Great demo though.

Hello. Yes, this is a system for those who can benefit from the multi-use aspect, if used as a standalone, single use carrier it may not represent a strong value to some. Thanks!
