• How To Carry a Pedego Tandem E-Bike With a 2019 Lincoln MKC
• Due to the weight(75lbs) and length(102.5" with 75.5" wheelbase) of your Pedego Tandem E-Bike we do not have a way to carry it on your 2019 Lincoln MKC. The Thule Tandem Roof Mounted Bike Rack # TH558P you found is only rated for up to 55lbs. You would need to have a small Utility Trailer # K2MMT5X7 you can tow behind your MKC. It would require you to have a our etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e79KR and T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118284 to connect the trailer lighting. You will then...

• Recommended Ski and Snowboard Carrier for a 2015 Lincoln MKC With a Panoramic Sunroof
• The only crossbars that'll work with your 2015 Lincoln MKC, is the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B. These crossbars measure 48" long and has a max weight capacity of 150 lbs. You could always install a hitch like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75943 if you don't have one already and use the Thule Tram Ski and Snowboard Carrier Adapter for Hitch Bike Racks # TH9033 for the Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # TH934XTR.

• Solution for Carrying E-Bike and E-Trike With 2016 Lincoln MKC
• The only solution to carry your e-bike and e-trike with your 2016 Lincoln MKC is to use a trailer like the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer # K2MMT4X6. I know this might not be ideal, but there are no bike racks or cargo carriers able to accommodate the size and weight of both. You will also need something like the Ratchet Tie Down Straps # ETBMB-05852 to secure them in the trailer.

It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver....

• Trailer Hitch for a 2015 Lincoln MKC that Does not Require Deactivating Hands-Free Liftgate
• Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75943 is a great choice for your 2015 Lincoln MKC. This hitch has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle and only the hitch opening will be visible since the cross tube will be behind the rear fascia. All of the hitches available will be just like this with only the hitch opening visible. The foot activation of your rear lift gate would still work, but you would need to go to either side of the hitch opening so that the sensor will pick up the movement. If...

• Hitch Installation Effects on Hands-Free Lift Gate Feature on 2018 Lincoln MKC
• A factory-installed hands-free lift gate feature will still function after you install an aftermarket hitch but often just the center-positioned sensor will not function. However, the other sensors near the corners of the vehicle will still operate normally. So in practical terms you'll just need to swing your foot near to one of the outside sensors to trigger the lift gate feature. This will be the case for either of the hitch types offered for your 2018 Lincoln MKC, both the 1-1/4-inch...

• Determining The Correct Tow Bar For A 2017 Lincoln MKC
• The tow bar you need to tow your 2017 Lincoln MKC is going to depend on the baseplate you install/have installed. You can mix and match some brands but you'll likely need an adapter if so. All that being said the manual for your vehicle states that front wheel drive models can not be flat towed with all four wheels on the ground so you'll need to dolly tow instead with the front wheels off of the ground. To do this you'll need the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly w/ Disc Brakes # DM9713093....

• Which Ballmount for Curt C13194 Class III Hitch on 2019 Lincoln MKC
• When we installed the Curt Class III hitch, part # C13194 on a Lincoln MKC, we found that the inside top edge of the receiver sat 12-1/2 inches above the ground. The the bottom edge of your boat trailer sits at 16 inches with the trailer level, you'll want to use a ball mount with a rise to raise the trailer ball by about 4 inches. That way, once the trailer is hitches up, the rear of the vehicle will squat a bit which will place the trailer very close to level. I'd recommend the Curt...

• Recommended Trike Rack for a 2019 Lincoln MKC
• I have a great option for you to transport your JC26X tadpole-style recumbent trike, but I do not recommend using the Softride Hang2 2-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SR27041. Setting aside the potential issue of ground clearance hitch height with your hitch, the Softride Hang2 requires front handlebars to mount to the clamps at the top. Since we have not fitted a recumbent-style bike on the clamps there is no way to confirm whether the clamps will adequately secure at any point of...

• Wiring Recommendation for a 2015 Lincoln MKC Towing a Boat Trailer with 5-Way Connector
• Since your 2015 Lincoln MKC didn't come with the factory tow package you need the Tekonsha T-One # 118284 for the basic trailer light functions. Then typically when a boat trailer has a 5-Way wiring harness that means it has a hydraulic actuator with an electric lockout. If this is the case then all you need to complete your wiring is the Tow Ready # 20036. This plugs into your 4-Way and then includes an extra wire that you connect to your reverse wire. If you still wanted to install a...

• Recommended Bike Rack for Trek Verve +2 and Lectric XP Electric Bikes
• The Thule # TH903202 EasyFold bike rack you'd looked at would actually be the perfect choice for your bikes. I've looked up the specs of both your bikes, and both would come in under the 65 lb per bike capacity of the Easy Fold. The only other thing you'd need to do is add the separately available fat bike tire strap, part # TH985101 to handle the thicker tires on the Lectric XP bike. The rack would hold both bikes by either the top tube for the Verve + or the seat post tube for the...
