Expert Answers about Scion


  • Recommendation for Carrying a Pronto M91 Electric Wheelchair with a 2006 Scion xB
  • With the 2006 Scion xB having a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds, I am going to suggest a different option to pull the Pronto M91 electric wheelchair. You will need to start the same way with a trailer hitch, like the Curt # C11487, but you will need a few more parts to complete this set up. From here you will need a ball mount, like # C45521, a pin/clip to keep it in the hitch, # F-4, and a 2" ball, # A-82, to install in the ball mount. You will also need a wiring harness,...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver, Wiring Harness and Ball Mount For a 2008 Scion XB Release Trim
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12490 is confirmed by Curt to fit all trims of your 2008 Scion xB including the Release. They were unable to confirm the fitment with your Ken Style body kit but said as long as it doesn't lower the bodywork you shouldn't have to do any trimming. Curt recommends using the Ball Mount # C45521 for your Scion. This will need to be paired with either a 1-7/8" Ball # A-80 or 2" Hitch Ball # A-82 to match your trailer coupler. For the trailer lighting the...

  • Tow Bar, Base Plates and Accessories Recommendation for the 2010 Scion xB
  • The Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit # 1187-1A, is a complete base plate kit and the draw bars are not interchangeable amongst base plate kits. If you need a tow bar for towing a 2008-2010 Scion xB, with the # 1187-1A base plate kit, I would recommend the RoadMaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar - 6,000 lbs, item # RM-520. This is our most popular tow bar and is easy to connect and disconnect from the towed vehicle. You will also need wiring, a power cord and safety cables to complete your towing setup....

  • Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2011 Scion tC
  • Hitch mount cargo carriers are not tested to fit to specific vehicles. Instead, they are designed to work with specific classes of trailer hitches. The Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier, # M2205, that you referenced was designed to work with Class III and Class IV trailer hitches with a 2 inch receiver opening. I have some options available for you, however, I do not recommend using the Carpod carrier with your 2011 Scion tC. All of the trailer hitches available for the tC are Class I trailer...

  • Which Hitch will Fit a 2014 Scion tC
  • I have a similar hitch I can recommend for your Scion tC, but the hitch you mentioned is not listed as a fit so it would not be the correct one for you. Instead, you would want the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11375 which has been confirmed as a fit for your 2014 Scion tC and actually has a much better price.

  • Will the Thule Helium Aero Hand Locking Knob Interfere With a Draw-Tite Hitch
  • Thanks for your recent purchase! The Thule Helium Aero hitch mounted bike rack # TH9042PRO hand locking knob will not interfere with your Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24827. The trailer hitch part 24827 is Class-I rated and has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and the rack is compatible with a Class-I trailer hitch. The Helium Pro lets you lock your bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle for complete security. So, once you have tightened the rack in place you simply lock it with a key...

  • Custom Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2014 Scion iQ and Parts Needed For Towing a Trailer
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11291 is custom fit for your 2014 Scion iQ. It will bolt on with no drilling required but, you may need to enlarge the access holes to get the square hole spacers to fit inside your frame. I recommend installing the Upgraded Circuit Protected Tail Light Converter # 119178KIT when you install the receiver. This will give you a 4-way flat connector that can be used when towing most small trailers. It will also allow for Auxiliary Lights # C53201 if you...

  • Which Roof Rack Will Fit My 2014 Scion iQ Using 1547 Fit Kit?
  • Thule does not have a roof rack for your 2014 Scion iQ so I can't say for sure if the 1547 fit kit will work for you, but if you do decide to use that fit kit then I will give you some options to complete the roof rack. The older Thule Traverse Fit Kit 1547 is compatible with Rapid Traverse Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roof - Qty 4 # TH480R. You don't want to install crossbars that are wider than your vehicle due to safety and state laws; it looks like your 2014 Scion iQ has a width...

  • Fit of Yakima Trunk Mounted Bike Rack on 2013 Scion tC
  • The Yakima HangOut 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack, part # Y02638, is indeed compatible with your 2013 Scion tC. To avoid possible scratching, always make sure that the area where the feet of the rack will touch the vehicle are 100 percent clean and free of grit. To carry women's bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # Y02531 is recommended. The adapter spans the distance between the seat post and the handle bar gooseneck, and provides...

  • Will Yakima FullBack Bike Carrier Fit 2007 Scion tC With Rear Spoiler
  • The Yakima FullBack # Y02634 will work well on your 2007 Scion tC. This bike carrier will work with the spoiler on your vehicle. The bike carrier has four straps to secure the rack to your Scion, and the cradles hold the bike frames at three points. It also comes with locks for the rack and the bikes.

  • Will Rhino Rack RMCB Cargo Basket fit Inno Square Crossbars
  • You bet they will! The Rhino Rack Cargo Basket, part # RMCB will fit crossbars as large as 3-1/2 inches wide x 1-1/2 inches tall. Your Inno # INB117 crossbars are only 1-1/4 inches wide x 7/8 of an inch tall, so they'll fit perfectly with room to spare. I've linked you to a product demonstration video featuring the Rhino Rack # RMCB cargo basket.

  • Does The Thule Outway Platform Trunk Bike Rack Fit a 2016 Scion iM
  • I checked with Thule and although they don't show the Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes part # TH65JV as a fit for a 2016 Scion iM, they do have many others like the Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack part # TH88VR which is what I recommend. The Gateway is lightweight at 27 lbs so it's easy to get on/off and has locks for security.

  • Hitch Cargo Carrier Recommendation for 2009 Scion xB
  • While we do have a great choice for a cargo carrier that will fit and work with your 2009 Scion xB, the one you mentioned won't work because it is a fit for 2 inch hitches only. The problem with that is your '09 xB only has 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch receivers available, with the best being the Class II Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12490. For a cargo carrier that will work with a 1-1/4 inch hitch and your Scion, I recommend the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18145. This carrier - which you can...

  • Will SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box Fit a 2009 Scion xB with Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack
  • If the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series roof rack you have for your 2009 Scion xB has the Euro-style square bars, # RREB137B, then the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box - Roof Mount - 18 cu ft - Black Item # SR7018 will fit for sure. If you have the Vortex bars, # RRVA137B-2, then it will likely fit though it will be a little tight and you may have to move the position of one of the crossbars a smidge.

  • Can I Use HR79 Brake Assembly with 02475 OB if Fifth Wheel has 14125A Bearings and a #42 Spindle
  • I reached out to my contact at Kodiak and they advised me that the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit 7,000 lbs # K2HR712D takes ½” studs only. When you go to 9/16” studs, the 7k axle kit # K2HR79DS comes with an 8K hub that takes that only takes the # 02475 bearing. Because you cannot fit 9/16” or 5/8” studs in a 7K hub Kodiak switches it to a 8 K hub. The 6K, 7K, and 8K spindle is the same spindle, the only difference is the outer bearing changes.

  • Will Boone No-Rattle Trailer Hitch Wedge Work With Brophy Hitch Adapter # HTAD
  • I pulled a Boone No-Rattle Trailer Hitch Wedge, part # 93347 from our warehouse and took a measurement for you. I have attached a photo of the wedge and have noted the dimension of the wedge that fits in the 3/4 inch opening you said you will have between the receiver opening and the back of the Brophy # HTAD. Using an adapter like HTAD will decrease the towing capacity of your trailer hitch by 50 percent. The 93347 wedge measures .454 inches so it will fit just fine between the receiver...

  • Compatibility of Hitch from 2009 Scion xB with 2005 xB
  • The Curt Class I hitch you've looked at, part # C11487 is a fit for your 2005 xB. Since the 2005 xB and the 2009 model are from two different generations, the hitch from the 2009 will not fit your 2005 model.

  • What Vehicles does Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C11420 fit?
  • I am sorry to hear about your car accident! The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11420 is a confirmed fit on a 2016 Scion iM, and 2017-2018 Toyota Corolla iM. If you plan on reusing the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11420 on another vehicle you will need new hardware # RHK. Make sure to include the item number for your trailer hitch receiver and manufacturer. If you are in need of a trailer hitch receiver for your new vehicle, let me know the Year/Make/Model and I'd be happy to help find...

  • Compatability of the Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier Trunk Mounted Bike Rack On a 2008 Scion xD
  • Yes, the Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier Trunk Mounted Bike Rack, item # TH910XT, will work on your 2008 Scion xD. There are a couple of concerns to keep in mind when using this carrier. You should not use the rear wiper when the carrier is installed and you should remove the carrier when not in use because the rear fascia (plastic over bumper) will deform if the bike rack is left on the vehicle for extended periods.

  • Comparison of Curt and Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receivers on 2010 Scion xB
  • I can't be completely sure but the hitch in the video review of the Curt Cargo Carrier # C18145, that I've attached, looks be the Curt Class II Receiver Hitch # C12490. There are only two hitch receivers available for your 2010 Scion xB, and the other, the Draw-Tite Class I # 24815 does not have a collar at the opening of the receiver tube like the one used in the video. The Curt is a Class II and has a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds with 350 pounds of tongue weight. The Draw-Tite Class...
