Expert Answers about Toyota RAV4


  • Am I Able to Use the Full 165 Pound Capacity of the Malone AirFlow2 on My 2015 Toyota RAV4?
  • If you purchased the Malone AirFlow 2 # MPG215 for your 2015 Toyota RAV4, the 165 pound weight limit is the maximum weight limit of the rack as long as your roof weight limit of your vehicle allows for such weight. Since your roof can only accommodate up to 103 pounds of maximum weight capacity, this applies to any weight of any kind that is on the roof.

The shank on the Thule Pro XTR Bike Rack # TH83JV is 7 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the curved bracket.
