  • Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar Accessories For Mounting Awning And Lights
  • The Universal Awning Fit Kit for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero # RR31111 will attach to the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2. The brackets will mount on the bars and provide you an L shaped bracket for mounting an awning. The LED Light Mounting Brackets # RR43174 can be used for attaching different lighting kits to the top of your crossbars. These brackets can be mounted on the top channel or the bottom channel if desired to keep the top channel free for your other accessories.

  • Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2021 Volvo XC60
  • Anything that will adapt from a 1-1/4" hitch to mate with a 2" accessory will also extend the mounting point to some degree. I suggest the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 80303 as this is the shortest option available. This will extend the hitch pin out 6" from current but will allow you to use 2" accessories with your 1-1/4" hitch. Please note that use of this, or any other similar adapter, will reduce the hitches max weight capacity by half.

  • Availability of Snow Chains for 2016 Volvo XC90 Tire Size 235/55R19
  • We carry a few different style chains that fit tire size 235/55-R19. However, according to your 2016 Volvo XC90 owner's manual. Your vehicle has a clearance issue between the wheel and tire and the wheel well of the car. Your owner's manual states that only single-sided snow chains can be used on this vehicle. The manual suggest that some of the strap-on tire chains will not work because the chains will interfere with brake components on the vehicle. The only tire chain we carry that...

  • Trailer Hitch Mounted Enclosed Cargo Carrier Recommendation
  • The Stowaway Max is an enclosed cargo carrier, but we do not carry it. We do have the Yakima EXO enclosed cargo carrier, # Y62VR, for a swing away version. I have included a link to a review video for you. We also have the 24x48-3/4 Carpod Walled, Folding Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches - w/ Lid, Bag, Rise Shank - 450 lbs # M2205-01-02. This is a different type of enclosed carrier that will fit Class III or IV hitches. It is basically a cage with a cargo bag in it. I have linked a video review...

  • Is There a 1-1/4 Trailer Hitch Receiver Available For a 2024 Volvo S60 Recharge?
  • It appears that none of the aftermarket manufacturers have a hitch option for your 2024 Volvo S60. I recommend visiting a local fabrication shop in your area to determine if they can help you with a Weld-On Receiver # E-912. If they determine there is no way to install a hitch below your chassis you will want to consider using another means for transporting what you need. If you need to haul bikes the Yakima FullBack 2 # Y02634 or 3 # Y02633 bike rack which will mount to your trunk. These...

  • Standard Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2016 Volvo V60 to Allow Use of 1-1/4-Inch Bike Rack
  • Bosal does offer adapters for their unique hitches to allow U.S.-style hitch bike racks and other accessories to be used but they no longer distribute here in the United States on a retail basis (OEM only). They elected to pull out of the U.S. market entirely. But... We do offer aftermarket hitches for your 2016 Volvo V60 that you can see on the linked page, in case you want to avoid future compatibility issues with accessory items. We offer both 1-1/4-inch Class II and 2-inch Class III...

  • Availability of a Vertical Receiver Hitch for a 2014 Volvo XC 90
  • The Curt vertical receiver adapter, part # C45013 is designed to work only with the Curt Stealth Hitch, but it might possibly work with other vertical receivers. We currently don't offer a vertical hitch receiver, only an adapter. The crucial dimension will be distance from the center of the hitch pin hole on the vertical tube to the end of the receiver. If this distance is more than 7/8 of an inch, the Curt adapter # C45013 will not work for you. See the diagram to the right. If you...

  • Availability Of a Trailer Battery To Tail Light Flasher When Trailer Is Disconnected
  • While there is not a single item that will do what you are looking for you can build one quite easily. First you will need a 7-Way # C58155 which will allow you to connect directly to the trailer 7-way. Then you will need either the Custer Single Function LED Strobe Driver # STR-QRLY if your trailer has LED tail lights with up to 420 milliamps of draw, or you will need to source a flasher from a local auto parts store if you have incandescent tail lights. From there wiring is straight forward...

  • Availability of Class 2 Hitch with 2 Inch Receiver for 2007 Volvo XC70
  • The available trailer hitches for a 2007 Volvo XC70 are all class II hitches with 1-1/4 inch hitch receivers. These trailer hitches have a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 pounds and a tongue weight capacity of either 300 or 350 pounds. You could go with an adapter like the Brophy # HTAD which converts a 1-1/4 inch receiver to a 2 inch receiver. However, I do not recommend it because it will reduce your tongue weight capacity by half. If you decide to go with a Class II hitch,...

  • Which Folding Kayak Carrier Will Fit The Thule Wingbar Evo Crossbars?
  • We do in fact have several folding kayak carriers that will fit your Thule Wingbar Evo Crossbars on your 2013 Volvo XC90. I recommend looking into the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - J-Style - Folding - Side Loading # MPG114MD. This is a folding carrier that will allow your roof to remain low-profile when no kayaks are on top of it; I attached a photo to show what this looks like in the folded down position. This carrier will simply clamp onto the Thule crossbars, but...

  • Trailer Hitch for 1993 Volvo 240 Sedan
  • The hitch you're needing is the Curt Class II, part # C12207, which we do offer. If you were wanting to use the hitch for towing purposes (as opposed to using it as an attachment point for a bike rack or cargo tray) you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like part # 119178KIT, a ball mount like part # C45017 and a trailer ball like # 19256 for a 1-7/8 ball or # 19258 for a 2 inch ball.

This includes the towing kit which has the ball mount and wiring harness. You can also add the towing kit later using the # SH36FR.

  • Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier for 2022 Volvo XC60 with Flush Rails
  • For your 2022 Volvo XC60 that has flush rails you'll need a roof rack with longer crossbars to fit your two kayaks side by side which for that we have the Thule Wingbar Evo Rack part # TH711420, # TH710601, and # TH186028 which will give you a really quiet and high quality rack with 53 inch long crossbars. Then for rear loading carriers you could use the Thule Dockglide part # TH896. The rear saddles are felt lined which allows the kayak to easily slide forward up to the front saddles.

  • Load Stop Recommendation for Thule Aeroblade Crossbar
  • We actually have loadstops that are designed specifically for the Thule Aeroblade crossbars. For that you'd want the part # 753-3761. This would be the better route to go. Most likely the Rola would fit as we've found most of the channel dimensions are the same, but Thule will recommend you use their load stops.

  • Is There a Hitch For a 2023 Volvo S60 Hybrid to Carry Bikes or What Options Are There
  • I have a couple other options for you, but there is not currently a hitch that fits your 2023 Volvo S60 hybrid. Instead you would need to look at a roof rack or trunk mount style. The easiest and most cost effective way is the trunk mount style like the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack # TH45JV. This involves a lot less parts, you just need to install the rack and you can carry 2 bikes weighing up to 33 lbs. per bike. For a roof rack option, there are a couple routes. There are vacuum sealed...

  • 4-Pole Wiring Harness for 1998 Volvo V70 for Motorcycle Trailer Lights
  • We do offer 4-pole wiring harness kits for your 1998 Volvo V70 and these are all hard-wired types displayed on the linked page. These kits wire in to the leads at the Volvo's taillights. None of these is a plug-and-play option which might be available from a Volvo dealership, albeit at a premium price, IF it is available. Of the available options I suggest the reliable Tekonsha # C59496 for its combination of reasonable price and high 7.5-amp taillight circuit current capacity which will...

  • Is There a Trailer Hitch Receiver Available For a 2020 Volvo S60?
  • While I do not see any aftermarket manufacturers with a trailer hitch receiver for your 2020 Volvo S60, you may still be able to have one fabricated at a nearby fabrication shop. The Weld-On Receiver # E17 may help them to create a custom hitch on your Volvo. I recommend also installing the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56224 when you have the receiver fabricated. This will give you a 4-flat connector which connects to most small trailers. It will also allow for Auxiliary...
