Expert Answers about Mazda CX-3


  • Fit of Inno Shaper80 Rooftop Cargo Basket INXA568 on Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack
  • The Rhino-Rack ROC25 aero roof rack that fit your 2016 Mazda CX-3, part # RR46XR, uses elliptical crossbars whose dimensions are 3-1/8-inches wide x 1-3/16-inches tall. The Inno Shaper80 Rooftop Cargo Basket # INXA568 is compatible with the T-slot channels in the Rhino-Rack crossbars. Just take a quick measurement of the spacing of your bars, from the center points of both the front and rear bars, to confirm they are at least 20-inches apart as required by the Inno basket.

  • Is It a Problem if Yakima Hitch Bike Rack Tilts Slightly to One Side
  • On your Yakima Hold-Up Bike Rack # Y02445 and others with an anti-rattle feature the anti-rattle device in the shank applies pressure to push the rack's shank against the inside of the hitch receiver tube. This pressure can cause some slight tilting of the rack, especially if the hitch tube is not perfectly level. This in itself is not a problem. Your hitch has no adjustment capability; it has one place to install and no user-adjustments are possible.

  • How to Carry Thule Tepui Rooftop Tent with 2017 Mazda CX-3
  • Thank you for reaching out! For your application we need to look at an alternative to a roof rack on your 2017 Mazda CX-3 because the Thule Tepui Explorer Ayer 2 Rooftop Tent, like the part 901201 in blue, is not supposed to be installed on a roof rack that uses clamps to install on the vehicle. This is because the weight of the tent could damage your roof. Any rooftop tent that I've looked at the instructions for have this same instruction - they are only supposed to be installed on roof...

  • Recommended Class I Bike Rack for a 2021 Mazda CX-3
  • I have a solution for you and a great bike rack but it looks like your 2021 Mazda CX-3 only has a class I 1-1/4" hitch so the Yakima RidgeBack item # Y02457 won't work because it requires a class II. Instead you will want the Kuat Beta Bike Rack for 2 Bikes item # B202-114. I like this bike rack because the Beta uses an innovative anti-rattle device which greatly reduces the movement of the rack in the receiver. It is one of the most economical bike racks we offer. This rack is sturdy...

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2018 Mazda CX-3
  • Curt trailer hitch # C11418 is a fit for the 2018 Mazda CX-3. I have linked a video showing an example installation on a 2016 and the process will be basically the same on your 2018. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch. Curt also says you have to use stabilization strap # 18050...

  • Roof Box Compatible with 2019 Mazda CX-3 with Factory Installed Cross Bars
  • While the SportRack Horizon Rooftop Cargo Box # SR7011 will fit the factory installed roof rack on your 2019 Mazda CX-3, it's just a little too long to allow you to fully open your rear hatch. For the hatch to fully open with the # SR7011 installed, there must be at least 52-1/2 inches measured from the center of the front crossbar to the line where the roof and hatch meet (see photo). If you can live with that, the roof box will otherwise fit nicely around your factory cross bars and will...

  • Will Swagman Bike Carrier Fit Trailer Hitch On 2016 Mazda CX-3
  • The Draw-Tite Sportframe trailer hitch, part # 24933 will work great on your 2016 CX-3. This is a Class l hitch and it has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. I am not sure which Swagman bike rack you have, but the bike racks we have made by Swagman like the Trailhead, part # S63360 has a measurement of 11 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the bike carrier. The Titan, part # S63400 has a distance of 11-1/4 inches, and both of these would work great for you....

  • Does Curt Still Require Stabilizer Strap When Carrying Hitch Mounted Accessories
  • Actually Curt stopped requiring the stabilizer straps with bike racks and other non-supported hitch accessories with their hitches like the # C11418 that fits your 2019 Mazda CX-3. It was an extra precaution they took back in the day but recently found it's not needed.

  • Comparison of Curt or Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver for Carrying Bikes on a 2016 Mazda CX-3
  • Both the Curt # C11418 and Draw-Tite # 24933 trailer hitch receivers install into the same location as each other on your 2016 Mazda CX-3. However, the Draw-Tite does not require the use of the support strap # 18050 like the Curt does. Both racks are Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitch receivers so I doubt you will have a much different ride using the Draw-Tite instead of the Curt. Have you tried an anti-rattle device on the bike rack? If you can tell me the make and model of the bike rack we...

  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2020 Chevy Blazer
  • The best trailer hitch receiver for your 2020 Chevy Blazer is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13418. The reason the Curt is the best is because it has a concealed crosstube which ensures only the receiver is showing, and is a much easier installation than the Draw-Tite model, which requires the removal of your Blazer's bumper beam; the Curt hitch does not. I have added a link to a video install for you to check out as well of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13418. Additionally,...

  • Recommended Hitch Confirmed to Fit a 2021 Mazda CX-3
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11418 is confirmed to fit all models of the 2021 Mazda CX-3. This hitch is made in the USA, has a bolt-on, no-drill installation and will provide you with a Class 1, 1-1/4" hitch receiver for using hitch mounted accessories such as bike racks, cargo carriers and ball mounts. When using hitch mounted accessories with this hitch you will want to make sure it is rated for use with a Class 1, 1-1/4" hitch. Something like the Thule Apex XT 2 Bike Rack # TH9024XT...

  • What Supports Bumper Fascia After Curt Trailer Hitch is Installed on a 2016 Mazda CX-3
  • With Curt hitch # C11418 installed on a 2016 Mazda CX-3 the lower fascia is still attached elsewhere on the vehicle and it will also be resting on top of the hitch receiver. There isn't room to replace the brackets that were removed to install the hitch. It does not appear to be an issue with Draw-Tite hitch # 24933 and I have linked that video for you as well. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory...

  • Comparison Of Swagman And Rhino-Rack Platform-Style Hitch-Mounted Bike Carriers
  • Both of the bike carriers, part # S64686 and part # RRRBC048 are nice carriers. They both have many features that are the same such as ratcheting hooks to hold the bikes in place, and tilting even when the bikes are loaded for rear cargo area access. They have the same weight capacity and can be used in 1-1/4 and 2-inch trailer htich receivers. The Swagman carrier uses cable locks in each arm while the Rhino-Rack has a cable that is used with the hitch pin lock. The Swagman has a distance...

  • Which Bike Racks are Compatible with Class I Hitches for 2016 Mazda CX-3
  • Sounds like you have a Class II bike rack by Yakima and would like to install it in the Draw Tite hitch part # 24933 which is a confirmed fit for the 2016 Mazda CX-3. Nearly all Yakima 1-1/4 inch hitches are Class II only so there's no way I can recommend a hitch that would work with your bike rack since all of the hitches for your vehicle are Class I. Only solution would be to go with a bike rack that is Class I compatible. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed...

  • Could Electric Brakes Install on Stand-Up EZ Haul Tow Dolly
  • The picture you submitted does show a trailer spindle that has a brake flange mounted to it. Based on that it is possible you could install brakes on your tow dolly. It really comes down to what spindle your trailer has though. That will dictate whether we have a hub/drum we can fit on it that will have brakes. In order to pick out the correct hub assembly for a trailer you are going to need know a few key pieces of information. The first thing you will need to know is the bolt pattern...

  • Recommended Propane Hoses and Adapters for 2005 Thor Wanderer Toy Hauler
  • The MB Sturgis Quick Disconnect Propane Hose for Small Appliance - Disposable Cylinder Port - 6' # 100476-72-MBS is a great hose to have for your gas grill so you don't need to deplete the propane supply of your trailer tanks. For your gas line, you will want the MB Sturgis Quick Disconnect Propane Connector - 1/4" FPT # 104052-MBS but you would need to find the adapter to 1/4 inch at a local home improvement store.

  • Compatibility of RS 2500 Roof Rack and Thule Force or Yakima RocketBox on a 2016 Mazda CX-3
  • Both the Thule Force Medium Rooftop Cargo Box 624 # TH6356B and the older Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 that you referenced are compatible with the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack # RR46XR that you have installed on your 2016 Mazda CX-3. If you have the room for it then the Thule Force would give you a little bit more room as it has 13 cu-ft of storage as opposed to the RocketBox Pro having 12 cu-ft of storage. You can verify that the back hatch of your CX-3 will fully open with the Force installed...
