Yes, if your 2019 Mazda CX9 has a 1-1/4" or 2" hitch receiver, you should be able attach the Yakima RidgeBack 2 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting, part # Y02457, to your vehicle. This hitch bike rack has three cradles to secure your bike during transport. It has an anti-rattle mechanism to reduce movement between the hitch receiver and the hitch bike rack. This rack can also be locked to your vehicle. When the rack is not in use you can fold down its arms and reduce how far the... view full answer...
You will need to start with a 4-way on your 2009 Mazda CX-9 and then convert it to a 5-way. This is the easiest way since there is a custom fit 4-way wiring harness for your vehicle, part # 56016.
Next you will need to install the part # 20036. This will convert the 4-way to a 5-way so that your reverse lockout solenoid will activate on your boat trailer. The fifth wire will get run to the reverse light circuit of your tow vehicle like the install video I attached for this product demonstrates. view full answer...
For your 2 bike hanging rack, there are 2 options a hitch mount or a trunk mount.
I recommend the Swagman Trailhead 2 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # S63360. This rack has a tilting function so you can have better cargo access with bikes installed. It has an anti-rattle threaded pin included to keep the bike rack tight to your hitch, and anti-sway cradles to secure your bikes with durable rubber straps. I do recommend using a cable lock like # e98891 for further security.... view full answer...
If you have what we call a naked roof, meaning no raised rails or flush rails, you cannot choose where to place the rack on the roof of your 2018 Mazda CX-9. Here is a setup for your car on a naked roof. The rack would consist of three separate parts;
Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 50" Long - Qty 2, part # Y00425,
BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4, part # Y28TR,
BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers - Qty 2, part # Y06138,

I recommend a Class lll trailer hitch like part # 75531 for your CX-9. A Class lll hitch offers many more options with a 2-inch receiver opening. Any time there is a choice between the 2 inch and th e1-1/4 inch we recommend the 2-inch for the very reason you mentioned.
Since you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also... view full answer...
If you were to run the power wire of the Curt Vehicle Wiring # 56016 to anywhere but the positive post of your vehicle battery you would void the warranty of the harness and could potentially damage the wiring of your CX-9 in the event of a short on the trailer wiring.
The purpose of the battery wire being run to the battery is so that it bypasses the delicate vehicle wiring and eliminates the potential threat of the trailer wiring damaging the vehicle's wiring. It draws all of the power... view full answer...
According to the owner's manual for your 2016 Mazda CX-9, tire chains/cables cannot be installed on 255/50-20 tires. Instead, they recommend that you replace this size with 255/60-18 tires. Therefore, I cannot recommend you use cables or chains on the 255/50-20 tires. However, more than likely you will be just fine using the Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains part # TC2324 which are a fit for the 255/50-20 tires because they are class s compatible which means they are specially designed... view full answer...
The Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 3 Bike Carrier # HRF2-3 is a confirmed fit for your 2009 Mazda CX-9. This unique carrier works especially well on vehicles with spoilers, thanks to its innovative arched design.
For women's, children's or alternative bike frames that do not have a top frame bar that is parallel to the ground, I would recommend the Yakima Bike Adapter Bar # Y02531. This adapter bar will allow you to carry those types of bikes level on the bike rack.

I did some research and found that your 2007 Mazda CX-9 is rated for 3,500 lbs towing capacity. We recommend weight distribution when the trailer weight is more than 50 percent of the weight of the vehicle doing the towing. Installing a weight distribution system with sway control will help keep the trailer level and prevent sway when in windy conditions or on winding roads or when big rigs pass you on the highway.
To determine if you need a weight distribution system we will need to... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite and Curt are top quality hitches as far as strength. As far as fitment on the vehicles, most manufacturers today try to make the hitch as least unobtrusive as possible when designing around the vehicle design.
When we recommend hitches we usually try to take into consideration how it looks on the vehicle. Like the hitch does not hang too low or that it does not stick too far out from the rear fascia. Also if the installation is easy to do or if it requires modifications.

The bracket on the Draw Tite hitch part # 76020 is welded to the hitch and would not be removable. If you really wanted to remove it I am sure you could, but I would avoid cutting on the crosstube of the hitch and stick to just the bracket only. You'll want to paint over the exposed metal too. If you check out the picture I attached though you'll see that it's not really visible so leaving it alone might be fine too. view full answer...
I've got just the chrome 1/2 inch wheel lug nut you need. The Redline # 12CLN will work on your # 8-173-16UC3 1/2 inch wheel bolts. They are sold individually, so you will want to update the quantity to 8 for one axle.
I have linked the chrome lug nut to this page for your purchasing convenience. view full answer...
To install your Tekonsha brake controller and activate the 12 volt accessory circuit you would need the part # ETBC7. This kit comes with everything needed to convert the 4-way to a 7-way and install the brake controller. Most likely your Fleetwood uses a 7-way and not a 6-way since the RV world almost exclusively uses 7-ways and the agricultural world uses 6-ways. When you counted the pins did you count 6 on the outside and then a center pin? If so then you have a 7-way.
In the off chance... view full answer...
First let's start with a hitch for your 2018 Mazda CX-9. For that the Draw Tite part # 76020 is the best option. It has a 2 inch hitch opening which you'll need so that you can install and use a folding cargo carrier. This hitch also has a concealed crosstube and the best price.
Then for a folding cargo carrier the Curt carrier part # C18151 would be what I recommend. It has a 500 lb capacity, it folds like you need and it has a rise built into the shank for added ground clearance. view full answer...
The Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK220 is a really solid choice for a roof rack for your 2012 Mazda CX-9. For a kayak carrier that will do an excellent job carrying both of your kayaks the Thule Compass part # TH890000 would be a really great choice.
I attached a picture that shows two kayaks carried on this rack as well as a review video for more info as well. view full answer...
I attached an FAQ that details how to pick out the correct ball mount. Picking out the correct ball mount will allow your trailer to sit as level as possible. Basically you will first measure the height from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on the hitch while on level ground. Next, you will measure the coupler height from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler when the trailer is on level ground.
Next, you will need to compute the difference. If the hitch height is... view full answer...
Based on my research, it does look like you are correct that the minimum crossbar spread on your 2010 Mazda CX-9 using the fixed mounting points will be around 42 inches. We only have a few cargo boxes available that are compatible with this large of a spread.
The most economical box we have that will work with up to a 42 inch crossbar spread is the Yakima SkyBox 12 # Y07334. This cargo box provides 12 cubic feet of space and a dual-side-opening lid that allows you to load/unload cargo... view full answer...
Sometimes in shipping the install brackets of a hitch can get slightly bent. As long as there are no flex marks on the hitch or chipped paint from the hitch flexing you can bend the hitch back to get it to line up.
Otherwise it can be helpful to start with all of the install bolts loose so that you can first get them all started. Once they are all started you can then torque them down to spec. view full answer...
