  • Can the Yakima Kayak Carrier # Y04083-04082 Fit on My Factory Rack on My 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser?

  • Can Chains be Connected to Curt Hitch Extender
  • There is not a place for safety chains to connect to the 18" Curt Extender for 2" Receivers # C45796 so you would need to get new safety chains as well; I have added a link to our selection of safety chains for you to check out such as the 60" # C19749. Keep in mind you will need Pin and Clip # C21510 in order to attach the extender to your current hitch, and that an extender is going to reduce the capacity of your current trailer hitch by 50 percent.

  • Spare Tire Bike Rack For 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser
  • Yes, The Hollywood Racks SR1 2-Bike Carrier part # HRSR1 fits spare tires up to 15" wide so your LT265 75/16 tires on the 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser will work fine. The bike rack itself will not damage the rear view camera but it will be partially blocked by the bikes. If you will be carrying bikes with a slanted cross tube like a women's or children's bike I recommend a bike frame adapter bar part # 64005. This adapter bar will give the bike a horizontal cross tube to hang the bike from.

  • I called my contact at Firestone about your 2009 FJ Cruiser with the three-inch lift. They told me if you have changed out the factory springs to a different spring that has a different diameter then they will need the inside diameter of the spring with the vehicle weight on the springs. This will tell them what size bag should be ordered with the # F4135 Ride-Rite kit. If you did not change out the coil springs then the # F4135 kit will work for your vehicle.
