  • Trunk Bike Rack For 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart With Large Spoiler
  • I have a solution for you. The Hollywood Racks Expedition 2-Bike Rack # HRF6-2 fits your 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart with spoiler. This bike rack works with most spoilers but if you have a large after-market rear spoiler you run the chance of this not working. This Is the solution when it comes to trunk mount bike racks for cars & SUV's with spoilers. It can carry two bikes with a max weight rating of 35 lbs per bike. I attached a video below about the bike rack.

  • Best way to Carry Bikes on my 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer GSR
  • I have a solution but with the spoiler on the Lancer you will not be able to safely carry bikes using a trunk mount rack. Instead the SeaSucker Mini Bomber Roof 2 Bike Rack part # Item # 298-BM2006 will allow you to carry 2 bikes or the SeaSucker Bomber Roof 3 Bike Rack part # 298-BB3008 to carry three bikes. These are pricey but eliminate the need to also purchase a roof rack system. This rack is very cool and will look great on your GSR. The cups hold it on the vehicle so tight there...

  • How do I Tow My 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer with Standard Transmission?
  • I have a solution for you. I went ahead and looked up your owner's manual for your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer, and I discovered that the manufacturer says you cannot flat-tow your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground. Also, with your standard transmission, you can use a tow dolly to transport your vehicle if you have a front-wheel drive model. For the tow dolly route, I recommend the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes - Foldable - 4,800 lbs # DM9713045. The Kar Kaddy SS provides...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer
  • The trailer hitch for your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer that I recommend using is the Curt Hitch Receiver # C11328. It has a max Gross Trailer Weight of 2,000 lbs and a max Tongue Weight of 200 lbs. There is a note on the warranty saying that all non-trailer loads should be supported with stabilizing straps, like part # 18050, otherwise the warranty is voided. This trailer hitch is not compatible with Evolution, Ralliart, and Dual Exhaust models. Keep in mind that you will need to check your...

  • Can 58 Round Bars be Used Instead of 48 Bars for a Yakima Roof Rack on a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer
  • Even though the recommended Yakima round bar roof rack combination for you 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer includes the 48" bars # Y00408, you can still use the 58" bars # Y00409 along with the BaseLine Towers # Y28TR, Round bar adapters # Y03536, and BaseClips # Y06180 (you need two sets) for a complete roof rack. The only stipulation when going with longer crossbars is that they are no longer than the side mirrors on your vehicle. If you measure from the edge of one side mirror to the edge of...

  • Reverse Light Bulbs for a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII

  • 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer ES Sedan Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Fitment
  • The Rhino-Rack 49" Vortex Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 and DK Fit Kit # DK289 will fit your 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer only if it's the 5-Door Sportback. Since you have the ES Sedan you need the following parts: 49" Vortex Crossbars - # RRVA126B-2 2500 Series Legs - # RRRLKVA Fit Kit - # DK289 If you let me know what you plan on using this for I'd be more than happy to make some recommendations for you!

  • Could 14 Foot Hobie Pro Angler Fit on CE Smith Multi Sport Boat and Kayak Trailer
  • You could maybe fit a 14 foot long Hobie Pro Angler on the CE Smith Multi Sport Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks # CE48810 but the reason it is designed for 12 foot long boots and shorter is due to the length of the trailer not being quite long enough to balance the weight of the longer boats. That is why for longer boats like what you have you'd want the longer CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks # CE48870 that you mentioned as well. This will be much safer and easier...

  • Is Yakima HangOut3 Bike Rack Safe to Use on Vehicle
  • We haven't had any reports of the Yakima HangOut3 part # Y02638 causing vehicle damage. Like with all trunk racks the important thing to do is to keep the vehicle pain clean when using the rack and to always stay under the weight capacity of the rack which is 90 lb or 35 lbs for a single bike.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Carrier for a 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer Sedan with Rear Spoiler
  • Since your 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer sedan has the tall spoiler, the Hollywood Racks Express trunk mount bike carrier, # HRE3, will not work. I checked with Malone and you can use the Malone Hanger Trunk Bike Rack for 3 Bikes - Adjustable Arms # MPG2139. I have included links to videos on all of these racks for you. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005....

  • Will the Thule K-Summit Lug Nut Adapter Work with the Dorman Autograde Wheel Nut Lock
  • I did some research on the Dorman Autograde wheel nut lock you mentioned and found that the sides of the nut are smooth to prevent the wheel lock from being removed with conventional tools. You will want to attach the Thule lug nut adapter to one of the remaining standard lug nuts, with 6 wrench flats, that hold the wheel on your vehicle. Only one standard lug nut is required for attachment of the K-Summit tire chains. I posted a video showing these chains being installed that should...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2015 Mitsubish Lancer 4 Door with Naked Roof
  • The Rola rack you referenced is for the 5 door version of your 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer. Since you have the 4 door you'd instead want the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK126 which is a confirmed fit and would work well.

  • Trunk Bike Rack Recommendation for 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Limited with Spoiler
  • For your 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Limited that has a spoiler the Hollywood Racks Expedition part # HRF6-2 would be your best option. This rack is specifically designed for use on vehicles with spoilers like yours so it would be a great choice. It is also a confirmed fit. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution w/ Spoiler
  • By 'fairing', I'm assuming you're speaking of the tall spoiler on the rear trunk lid. The spoiler is what creates the fit problem that rules out almost all the bike racks I've looked at, but I've found an option that my Saris representative tells me will fit, the Saris Bones # SA803 will work. . This rack has enough height to reach over the spoiler and attach securely. The Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Rack you referenced, part # HRE3 isn't a fit on Lancer models equipped with the spoiler. If...

  • This CURT Trailer Hitch # 11476 will work on all models of the 2005 Mitsubishi Lancers except Evolutions and Ralliarts.

  • Trailer Hitch and Accessory Fits for 2016 Lexus NX200t
  • On occasion a hitch will fit more than one vehicle but usually this is not the case with vehicles that comes from two different manufacturers, in your case Mitsubishi and Lexus. I checked the hitch fits for the 2013 Mitsubishi Lancer and all are for light-duty Class I hitches. The 2015 and 2016 model years of the Lexus NX 200t take only Class II and Class III hitches, as shown on the linked page. Your old hitch will not fit the new vehicle. For your NX200t I suggest you go for a 2-inch...

For a paddleboard carrier you would want the Thule SUP Shuttle part # TH811XT that has been confirmed to fit this roof rack.

  • Can a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Be Flat-Towed
  • I checked out the owner's manual for a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer and according to this, the vehicle can only be transported on a tow dolly. The only models we offer a tow dolly for are front wheel drive as these can be towed from the front with the front wheels off the ground. The other models will either need to have the rear wheels or all wheels off the ground. I recommend checking out page 6-23 if you need further clarification. For a tow dolly, I recommend the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer
  • Since none of the hitches that fit a 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer are a 2 inch hitch what you would want is a new hitch bike rack that would fit a hitch like the # C11476 which is a confirmed fit. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058 We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for...
