Hello neighbors, Steven here with etrailer.com. Today we're looking at the replacement end cap for the Yakima Front Loader or forklift roof bike racks with steel wheel trays. So folks, again, this is just the replacement end cap for those two racks I mentioned. Ill throw a picture up real quick. The far left of that image is where this is going. The end cap, so again, this only works with the steel wheel tray, so the front loader and the forklift.
If your bike rack has an aluminum tray, you would need part number Y 80140 and you can test if yours is aluminum or metal by putting a magnet on it. And if it sticks to it, it's metal. And if it doesn't, it's aluminum. Now this is just gonna be one, quantity one replacement end cap. As you can see, it's highly molded plastic.
Nice firm, very sturdy. Again, very simple, but direct replacement from Yakima so you can ensure it's gonna fit the front loader and the forklift. Again, with the steel wheel trays. Folks, I'm Steven. Thanks so much for watching, have a great day.

Replaces the wheel tray endcap for your Yakima FrontLoader (Y02103) or ForkLift (Y02098) roof bike rack with steel-tube wheel trays.Excellent service and site. So many more parts available and product explanations than on the Yakima site whose delivery was estimated to take 3 weeks instead of 3 days with etrailer. Etrailer kept me informed from the day the order was placed until delivery. Well done, excellent customer care both in making sure that the product ordered is the one needed (detailed explanations and videos) and in delivering.
This was an exact replacement part for my Yakima FrontLoader after the original flew off my car after I didn't lock it into place. Arrived quickly; no issues!
It took over 5 months to deliver. That's pretty bad. The description leaves some doubt as to whether it is the correct part and since it is facing the back of the product, you cannot see the word "Yakima" painted on the front. In this case, it is the part I was hoping for, but I bought two (2) different parts because I was unsure which was correct.I can't tell the difference between this part (Item No. Y8880188) and this part: Item No. Y80140

I can see where the confusion between the two caps is coming from because they certainly resemble each other. The difference is that this part is meant for steel trays, while part # Y80140 is used with aluminum trays.
ETrailer had the replacement parts needed. Supply chain delays outside their control, they offered alternative options. I maintained original order and it eventually arrived. Installed and working great!
excellent service; delivery exactly on time and as promised; very helpful emails on status. Also-- etrailer was recommended to me by Yakima which I love and have used for years so if Yakima recommends etrailer I knew they would be good and they were!! They got bike rack part even Yakima did not have in stock...
Not sure if this is authentic Yakima or a knockoff. Part did not fit well and does not have the Yakima logo on it like the end cap that came with the rack originally.

Yakima makes two different replacement end caps, the correct cap will depend on what material the wheel tray is constructed of. If your FrontLoader or ForkLift has the steel tray, this particular part would be the correct replacement. If your rack has the aluminum tray, youll need a different end cap, part # Y80140. This information is provided in the product description. We do indeed source all our Yakima replacement parts directly from Yakima.

My OEM endcap fell off and I used this one to replace it. Multiple trips on the highway and down bumpy road with no issues. Fits great and stays in place!

Works Great
Perfect fit!! High quality
They don't say Yakima nor should you care. These little end caps fit exactly as they should no slop, no slip, all great.
Had someone not been a tool and "borrowed" both of mine (may they get a flat on a mountain top during a hail storm) at the trailhead I never would have been able to try these out.
Good luck to you I hope you never need these but, if you do they are the bomb.
Just what I needed. eTrailer is the perfect place for odds and ends in fixing and maintaining trailers/bike carriers etc. Good selection and reasonable prices.
What to do, where to go when you lose a very important part of safety equipment. Thankfully, I found a perfect replacement end cap for my frontloader bike rack online for through ETRAILER Corp. Less than half the price and minimal shipping. Love this place.
Lost the end cap- this replacement worked. BYW, this one is exactly the same product as Item #Y80140 but it does not have the Yakima logo on it.
Exactly as expected. It's great having a company that provides spare parts for these racks! Etrailer is affordable and always has fast shipping.
Did not fit my old Yakima forklift out of the box had to use a dremil and mallet to get it in but it's in and working
It looks great but it doesn't fit well. The plastic is too soft and the clips doesn't latch on to the rack. I was able to pull it out with little effort. I bent the clips out so that it would stay better; hopefully that will do the trick.
Once again etrailer.com had the replacement part I was looking for and sent it to me in a timely manner. I am really impressed.
Great communication. Staff was very helpful assisting me on the replacement part that I needed. I got exactly the part that I needed, which was very hard to find.
Perfect replacement peice
Great service and very fast delivery. I would not hesitate to purchase again.
Fit right and excellent quality

It’s been in place since installed a year ago, no sagging or deformed. Meets or exceeds OEM quality
Product was exactly what I needed. Received it quick. Would use this company again. Thanks Etrailer.
Exact replacement end cap. Does not have any logos, and that doesn't matter one bit.
JUST PERFECT REPLACEMENT. NICE!!!!
Exactly what I needed
