Expert Answers about Toyota RAV4


  • Parts for Roof Rack to Use Thule Hullavator Pro on 2020 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
  • In order to attach a Hullavator Pro, part # TH898, to the roof of your 2020 Toyota RAV4 you need a complete roof rack. The answer page you came from is recommending a roof rack system that does include three parts; cross bars, feet, and a fit kit. A lot of roof racks are made up of multiple parts in order to use some of those same parts on different vehicles. For example those Thule crossbars, part # TH711200, and feet, part # TH460R, fit a lot of different vehicles if you use a different...

  • Recommended Low-Profile Crossbar Suggestion For A 2019 Toyota RAV4
  • Without knowing which Thule setup you currently have on your 2019 Toyota RAV4 I won't be able to tell if you if a certain new setup will be shorter or not.

When installed, this setup measures 5-5/8" tall, has a maximum weight capacity of 165-lbs, and is 50" long x 2-3/4" wide. I have attached a product review video...

  • Is There an Adapter Needed to Use the Thule Spare Me with Mountain Bikes
  • The Thule Spare Me # TH963PRO doesn't require any adapter for mountain bikes. The only adapter you need is a frame adapter bar like the Kuat Ubar # UB01. This is used to create the horizontal top cross tube on bikes that don't have one like a women's bike. It creates the contact point for a hanging rack and helps keep a bike level.

  • Rola Hanging Bike Rack Weight Capacity and License Plate Relocation Options
  • The Rola TX-104 4-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches item # 59401 does have a lower overall capacity at 100 lbs but this is also the only hanging bike rack that has a tilting function with the bikes loaded. If you are in need of a 4 bike hanging bike rack that has a higher capacity then you will want to take a look at the Thule Hitching Post Pro item # TH934XTR.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2020 Toyota RAV4 with Flush Mounted Side Rails
  • Both Yakima and Thule have roof rack fits for the flush rails on your 2020 Toyota RAV4. I personally like the Yakima roof racks more because they have some adjustability in the legs to get the most custom fit. Thule is nice as well and might be a little easier to install initially but that's just because there isn't any adjustability in the legs. Here are the parts you'll need either way: Yakima (recommended): 50" JetStream Crossbars - # Y00425 SkyLine Towers - # Y53TR Landing Pad 23 -...

  • Parts Needed to Use a Brake Controller in a 2011 Toyota Rav4 with 4-way Connector Present
  • You are already on the correct track. In order to install a 7-way on your 2011 Toyota Rav4 you have to have a 4-way installed first. Since you already have a 4-way you can use the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 to adapt your 4-way into a 7-way. You would still want to run the second power wire to the battery. The wire for the 4-way is only 10-amp while the 7-way wire is 40-amp and they are serving different purposes. I also recommend picking up the Curt...

  • The hardware included with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13149 are M12-1.25 x 35mm bolts and 1/2 inch conical toothed washers. I couldn't find an order from us.

  • Hitch and Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 2020 Toyota RAV4 Adventure Series
  • Both the Curt # C13416 and the etrailer # e23ZR are confirmed fits for all models of the 2020 Toyota RAV4. Both hitches are a concealed design, which means that the crossbar of the hitch is hidden behind the bumper, the only visible portion is the receiver tube and the safety chain hoops. Both hitches are very similar in appearance with the Draw-Tite model having a slightly higher capacity. If the extra capacity isn't a consideration, I'd choose the Curt model because the hitch is manufactured...
