  • Lowest Profile, Easiest Roof Rack For Carrying A Bike On Our 2021 Volvo XC60
  • Your best option when it comes to an easy roof rack to install would be this Rhino Rack system. You'll get the Aluminum Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 with the SRB rails # RRSX046. These just clamp on to your current rails and won't sit up too high. We do not have anything like the Thule # TH7602-TH7602 roof rack you were looking for that will fit your 2021 Volvo XC60. I like the Rhino-Rack Hybrid # RRRBC050 because it clamps on to your roof rack and then has a wheel hook to get the bike secured...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2020 Volvo XC40
  • The Stealth Trailer Hitch part # SH77FR is a great option for a 2020 Volvo XC40. It will not void any warranties as per the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. It comes with everything needed for the actual hitch portion. If you are towing then you'll also need a wiring harness and for this I recommend the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - 2" Ball # SH36FR. It comes with wiring and will not interfere with any of the integrated sensors or cameras.

  • Options for Carrying a Wheelchair with 2007 Volvo XC70
  • If your 2007 Volvo XC70 has a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver, the hitch-mounted wheelchair carrier I recommend is the Flint Hill Goods 30x50 Cargo Carrier with 48 Inch Long Ramp # FHG77ZR. This carrier will help you easily load your wheelchair with the attached ramp. This carrier has a weight capacity of 500 pounds and is made from a sturdy steel construction. I have attached a review video of this carrier for you. If the trailer hitch on your XC70 is a Class II trailer hitch with a 1-1/4...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1999 Volvo V70
  • For your 1999 Volvo V70 the Draw Tite hitch part # 36262 is a confirmed fit and what I would recommend. It is confirmed as a fit for all models of your vehicle so it will work with yours being front wheel drive. I like this one over the Curt because it does not require a stabilizer strap with a non supported load like a bike rack like the Curt does.

  • Recommended Roof Rack For Rooftop Tent On 2014 Volvo XC70
  • I was able to find that the Roofnest Condor XL rooftop tent requires crossbars that have a weight rating of at least 150lbs. For your 2014 Volvo XC70 with the factory installed raised rails that run back to front I recommend the Thule Roof Rack System which uses 53" Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420, and Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 which offer a maximum weight capacity of 165lbs which exceeds the minimum crossbar weight rating Roofnest requires. I included a video of the Thule...

  • Bike Rack Solution for 2018 Forest River Viking 1706
  • My favorite bike rack recommendation for campers like yours that have an a-frame is the Jack-It part # LC429756 which attaches to the mounting flange for your trailer jack and gives you a 2 bike rack that sits up above the propane tank area. This is a 2 bike solution which is normally about as many bikes as you'll fit in this area easily. Another option is the Bike Bunk part # CC-275 which installs in same area but attaches to the trailer frame instead and gives a hitch opening you could...

  • What Roof Rack Do You Recommend For My 2022 Volvo XC40 To Carry A Thule Hullavator And Kayak
  • My roof rack recommendation for you will consist of a Yakima roof rack and the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading, part # TH898. The Hullavator will not work unless there is between 4" and 8" of crossbar extension beyond the towers/feet. Yakima roof racks are easier to setup with that extension. Your Yakima roof rack will consist of the following items: Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 53" Long - Qty 2, part # TH711420 Evo Flush...

  • Recommended Roof Box Size for a 2008 Volvo S80
  • The Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH629906 (22 Cu. Ft.) will fit a 2008 Volvo S80 but it would be extremely large. Instead, the Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH629706 (16 Cu. Ft.) would be a much better size and what I recommend using.

The Blue Ox SwayPro is an excellent option, one that I am sure you will be happy with as it provides great support and anti-sway features. If this is a system you like, I'd go for it as it is very highly reviewed.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch And 4-Bike Carrier For 2012 Volvo XC70
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch, part # 13266 will work great on your 2013 XC70. This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening. I have attached a link to an installation video for this hitch you can check out. The distance form the center of the hitch pin hole to the rearmost part of the bumper is 5-3/4 inches. I recommend the Yakima FullSwing 4 Bike Rack, part # Y02465. This bike carrier has a swing-away feature and also has anti-sway cradles that keep the bikes from banging...

  • Using a Yakima SKS on Other Products
  • I have a solution for you, however, Yakima's SKS cores are only compatible with Yakima's products. You can't cross use them Yakima does offer an SKS compatible hitch lock for its bike racks as part # Y07235 that is compatible with all Yakima pins, if the bike rack doesn't already have some form of locking hitch pin. If you want to add an anti rattle device, the replacement 2 inch kit is available as part # Y8780022

  • 3 Bike Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2007 Volvo XC70
  • For 3 bikes, we do have some options from Thule. I recommend the OutWay 3, # TH56BV. This bike rack uses only 2 retractable cables rather than 6 straps to secure to the vehicle so it installs and removes faster than any other bike rack I have seen. The cables can be locked into place to deter theft. The rack also features a cable lock to secure the furthest out bike to the rack preventing the theft of all the bikes. If you will be carrying women's, children's, or alternative frame bikes,...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2007 Volvo XC70 for Towing Jet Ski Trailer
  • A Jet Ski trailer would not put a tongue weight of 500 lbs on the trailer hitch. We have a Curt hitch part # C12318 which is a confirmed fit for your 2007 Volvo XC70 which has a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs which would be more than enough for a Jet Ski trailer. For trailer wiring you'd want # C59496, then for a ball mount you'd want part # C45016, hitch ball # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2 Velec Electric Bikes
  • For your 2 Velec electric assist bikes that have low frame tubes common on E-bikes the best option we have is the Thule EasyFold part # TH903202 . I attached a picture that shows this rack used on a pair of very similar bikes as yours as well. For a trailer hitch you then would want the Draw Tite part # 75916 which is confirmed as a fit for your vehicle and would be a strong and sturdy mounting point for the bike rack.

  • Recommended Bike Rack for Trek Verve 3 with Step-Through Frame for a 2004 Volvo S40
  • The Swagman Chinook # S64683 is a great bike rack that can be adjusted to hold kid's bikes so I don't think that the hook being able to come down far enough will be an issue. My only concern is that the 3rd point of contact will be lower so I am not sure how secure a bike with a low step-through frame will do. To ensure that your wife's bike will remain secure in the bike rack there are 2 options. You could either use an Adapter Bar # 64005 which is typically used for hanging style...

  • Adapter to Use a 1-1/4 Inch Thule Bike Rack in a 2 Inch Hitch on a 2017 Volvo XC60
  • I have a solution for you but adapter # 853-7489 does not fit the older Thule Helium bike racks. What you can use is # HT02. This is a reducer sleeve that will allow you to use a 1-1/4 inch accessory in a 2 inch trailer hitch. Because it is a reducer sleeve it will not reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch.
