Expert Answers about Scion


  • Hitch Choices for 2004 Scion xB
  • We do have hitches available for your 2004 Scion xB, like the Curt # C11487 but they are a Class I with a 2000 lb towing/200 lb tongue weight capacity. The capacity of the hitch will be limited by the towing capacity of the vehicle, if it's less. I noticed you had looked at the hitch adapters like # 80303 that would allow a hitch accessory with a 2 inch shank work in a hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver. These adapters are only compatible with a Class II hitch, which has a higher weight...

  • Are Just Mounting Brackets Available for a 2005 Scion xA
  • I spoke to my contact at Roadmaster and they do not offer replacement vehicle side mounting brackets for vehicles. You will have to purchase the complete Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit, # 1170-1, for your new vehicle. The reason is a safety concern, and a fit issue. For safety they want to make sure no parts that were in an accident are reused, and the drawbars may not be correctly sized to fit in a new base plate receiver.

  • Roof Cargo Basket Availability Larger than Pro Series Big Sky
  • For a larger cargo basket I would recommend the Thule Canyon XT Rooftop Cargo Carrier with Extension # TH859XT-8591XT. This basket measures 41" Wide x 71" Long x 5-3/4" Tall.

  • Availability of U.S. Navy Hitch Covers For 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch
  • The two most common sizes of trailer hitch receivers are 1-1/4 inch x 1-1/4 inch and 2-inch x 2-inch. The U.S. Navy Trailer Hitch Cover, part # AUT2-NAVY-C, is the only US Navy cover we carry for a 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver. I have many more U.S. Navy hitch covers available, but they will only fit into a 2-inch size trailer hitch. I am including a link to the product page for the 2-inch size hitch covers.

  • Method to Secure 2012 Scion iQ in Toy Hauler Trailer
  • If your transport is a one-time or occasional event you might consider a pair of basic rubber chocks like the # 337WC8127 for stabilization along with a cable lock to secure the vehicle by its axle. We offer the Master Lock Quantum Self-Coiling, Combination Cable Lock - 1/2" Diameter x 6' Long # 8122D that is 6-feet by 1-3/16-inches thick. This could wrap around an axle and be secured to a simple bolt on D-ring like # LRB1 (hardware is not included). This arrangement would allow the cable...

I am including three links to product pages that will list the hitches available for each model of Scion. Also, I am including a link to a video of a hitch being installed on a Scion xB. If you can let me know the exact...

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch for 2011 scion xB RS 8.0
  • Due to the center exhaust used on the RS 8.0, I'm sorry to say that the hitches we offer wouldn't work. However, if you were wanting to use the hitch to carry bicycles, we do have a solution that would help you with that. We have numerous trunk/hatch mounted bike racks that are compatible with your xB. I really like the relative simplicity of the Thule Gateway Pro, part # TH88VR for the 2 bike model or # TH78VR for a 3 bike. Thule is one of the premier bike rack manufacturers, their products...

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch for 2015 Scion xB
  • Both the 2014 and 2015 model years of the Scion xB are part of the vehicle's second generation and so will share many design and construction features. My technical contact at Curt confirmed for me that their hitch that fits the 2014 model year xB, part # C12490, also fits the 2015 model year.

  • How to Add Ground Clearance to Allow 2004 Scion xB to Be Used with Hitch Rack
  • The hitch made for your 2004 Scion xB is a light-duty Class I type, such as Curt # C11487. The type of item you're looking for, a hitch adapter that gives you a height increase for better ground clearance at your bike wheels, does exist for larger 2-inch hitches. Such an item is # MPG544, as an example. The problem is that an equivalent item is not made for your light-duty 1-1/4-inch hitch. The best option I can offer you is the Brophy hitch adapter # HT5R . This will give you a 2 inch...

  • Available Trailer Hitch for a 2007 Scion xA
  • In my research on the Scion xA, Toyota only shows manufacturing this vehicle from 2004 to 2006 model years. They did not make a 2007 year model Scion xA. So, we must assume that your vehicle is a 2006 year model xA. We do carry a Curt Trailer Class I Hitch, # C11488, that is confirmed to fit the 2006 Scion xA. This hitch is designed to custom-fit the 2006 xA and requires no drilling for installation. The hitch has an 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver opening. I have included an installation video...
