Both of the hitch pins are industry standard sized pins, so all the holes on all receiver hitches should fall under the sizes of these two pins. By chance if your receiver hole has been drilled out or modified then this would be the only time I would worry about. You can google the two sized holes if you are concerned about the size and see if your bolt diameter is the size of one of the pins.

This is a lockable version of the cross-pin that is used in a hitch receiver.

That will work, although I'm sure it's not recommended by the manufacturer. You can do it, but be sure to position the jack such that the bike is properly balanced. It's best to at least use a stationary wheel chock while using the jack.

That is something I do not know clearly about. The best way to figure this out, would be to search this rack's fitting capabilities to your individual bicycle via the internet.

Yes, I believe you can. What is important is the length of the cage. A short cage as in most of todays road bikes probably won't work, but a long cage as in most of todays mountain and hybrid bikes should. The length of the cage allows it to shift up onto that big sprocket. Good luck

Obviously I cannot promise anything, but if the bike has a traditional front brake (that pinches the rim) versus a disk front brake it should work. The rack mounts to the front forks using the mounting points also used for a traditional front brake. I hope this helps.

It is sort if a universal fit. Mark the locations of where you want the u bolts to go and drill the holes. This does need to be mounted on a rack though not to the plastic.

Yes, but I modified it on my Disc Trucker a bit to space it out from the fork to make more room for the disc brake and to better hand these panniers I use for getting beer. I don't know how to attach a photo here, but if you send me yours I'll send you a pic. I used steel sleeves I bought at Home Depot and longer bolts. It will bolt up without the modification, but I prefer it spaced out a skosh.

I wouldn't see why not. I had to reverse the bikes on the rack to get the lay side by side. It is a nice sturdy rack

No. There is no reason youbwould need them with this style if bike rack. take a look at the last 2 picrures on the manufatures web site o of th 18086 4 bike rack. http://www.curtmfg.com/Category/282/Tray-Style%20Bike%20Rack

Hi! Unfortunately this rack will not fit on the bike you are referring to. Thanks.

Yes. Although with the bikes in the rack it may be hard to reach the footswitch that allows that.

Hi. Yes, I don't see why not. The nuts you see at the top of the triangle are wide enough to fix or hold on to the bike. My bike has levels to remove the wheels quickly. I did not bother with removing it, instead, I applied a strong grip and the bike holds just great.

I would say yes as I have done this by rotating the U-bolt and cradle but it also depends on the frame design and diameter of the tubing.I will try to attach a picture if possible

No. If you're replacing a big chainring, you can use the existing bolts. If you're adding the Guard to a 2x setup, you may need to get longer bolts to accomidate the guard's extra width.

Yes you can, however the rack moves around a lot. It's safe, but if I were to buy another rack, it would be from 1up USA bike rack. I barrowed one, best rack I have ever used.

you can...i did the same thing with mine and it works fine. you cant tell by the pictures, both ends of the bar have hole in them so you can bolt the bar to the brackets to keep the bar from spinning. I only bolted one end of my bar and it works perfect.

Yes you can. You have to drill and tap holes on the top of the receiver, but it can be done. I would go this route as I am not a fan of adding saddles to the receiver as you have to replace the pins and use the ones that come with the saddle. This can lead to a couple of issues, over tightening which can lead to bunching and locking when trying to rack, or the possibility of having the pins strip or fail. Using this rail with some BLUE (not RED) LockTite, would almost guarantee a permanent install.
