  • Compatibility of Thule Roof Basket with 2019 Toyota Rav4 Crossbars
  • The Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs, Item # TH859XT will fit most crossbars, so that is not a concern. You will need to measure the crossbar spread which is the distance between the crossbars when measured from the center of one to the center of the other. The Thule # TH859XT will work with crossbars that are spread between 20 inches and 37 inches apart when measured from center of front crossbar to center or rear crossbar. Check out the attached...

  • What is the Compressed Length of the Taylor Made 36 Inch Gas Strut
  • The Taylor Made # 3691871-90 has a compressed length of 36" and an extended length of 50" when measured from the center of one ball joint to the other. The 90-lbs compression force means that it will require 90-lbs of force to compress the shock back down, so it's a great choice for holding up a rear hatch on a tear drop camper when you're using 2 of them. There are a number of different compression weights available, so I've linked all of the 36" struts to this answer in case you're needing...

  • Timbren Axle Less kit for 4,000 lb Trailer that has 4 inch Lift
  • The Timbren Axle Less Kit part # ASR2KHDS03 that you referenced is essentially a 2,000 lb axle so it would take two of them for a 4,000 lb trailer. If you have a 4,000 lb trailer axle the most similar option that would work well you'd want the Timbren # T99GR which has a 4 inch lift like the axle you mentioned and has a 5,200 lb capacity so it would work great.

  • Roof Rack For 1994 Toyota Townace Van
  • The only option for a 1994 Toyota Townace van that is imported is going to be a universal SeaSucker roof rack: - SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B Since there isn't a custom-fit roof rack for your van, this would be the only option we know will work for you. It is a vacuum-cup roof rack that will attach directly to the top of your van, giving you a rack system with round bars that will allow you to mount accessories. I have added a link below to a video review for you to...

  • Availability of Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13524 in Europe
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13524 that you referenced is indeed a fit for the U.S. version of the Toyota RAV4 for model years 1996 through 2005. This hitch is designed specifically for the U.S. versions of this vehicle which could easily have different mounting points than the RAV4 made for the European market. Curt designs and test-fits their hitches only for vehicles that were originally intended for the U.S. and so there is likely very limited, if any, demand for this item in...

  • Spare Tire Mounted Trunk rack Recommendation for a 2005 Toyota RAV4
  • The most economically priced spare tire mounted bike rack we offer that would work well on your 2005 Toyota RAV4 would be the Surco Bike rack part # BT300. For an adapter for your bike frame I would recommend the Swagman Adapter bar part # 64005. This is also the most economically priced adapter bar we offer that actually is easier to use than the other brand adapters.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Yakima TwoTimer Bike Rack on a 2018 Toyota RAV4
  • Glad to hear that you are enjoying the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11265 on your 2018 Toyota Corolla! In order to install a hitch on your wife's 2018 Toyota RAV4 you will need a different trailer hitch as the Draw-Tite # 36416 you currently have is only a fit for a 2007 - 2012 Lexus ES 350 or a 2007 - 2011 Toyota Camry. Normally I recommend going with a 2" hitch receiver like the etrailer # e98864 for the RAV4 because it allows you to use a wider variety of accessories, but if you are solely...

  • Could Install of Trailer Hitch Cause Rear Hatch Latch to Not Connect
  • If they torqued the install hardware of the hitch without having the weight of the vehicle on the suspension of the vehicle it could have bound up the chassis a bit and cause the latch to stop aligning. You could loosen the hitch hardware and test this pretty easily.

  • Parts Needed to Install Curt Echo Brake Controller on 2016 Toyota RAV4 with 4-Way Connector
  • We do recommend using the Upgrade Kit # ETBC7L to make your tow vehicle (2016 Toyota RAV4) 4-Way compatible with the Curt Echo # C51180. With that being said, the Curt Adapter # C57674 you picked up will actually work out great! You just need a few more pieces to finish up the ETBC7L kit: 20' of 12 Gauge Wire - # 12-1-1 40 Amp Circuit Breaker - # 9510 3/8" Ring Terminal - # DW05705-1 2 Count of the 3/16" Ring Terminal - # 44-5310A 3 Count of Self-Tapping Screw - # FA1131822 Zip Tires -...

  • Recommended Roof Basket, Bike Carrier and Snowboard Carrier for 2020 Toyota RAV4
  • I have a solution for you, but the Thule Roof Basket #TH859XT isn't going to be the best option. Additionally, most manufacturers do not recommend attaching anything to the cargo basket-and it's really not possible because of the small size of the bars that are used on the bottoms of the baskets. With that said, I recommend starting with the Rhino Rack # RRRMCB03, which has fork mounted bike carriers integrated into the cargo basket. This is a more economical solution than adding two...

  • Does Trunk Mounted 2-Bike Carrier Allow Trunk Access On 2021 Toyota RAV4?
  • All trunk-mounted bike racks, including the Yakima Full Back 2 Bike # Y02634, prevent access to the trunk when installed on a vehicle. This is mainly due to the fact that vehicle trunk/hatch supports are not made heavy duty enough to withstand the excess weight of the bike rack and/or bikes. The bike rack itself is also not designed to carry bikes in that position so I do not recommend trying to do so. This carrier is very easy to install and use! The straps simply clip around your vehicle's...

  • Recommended Adapter To Plug 4-Way Harness On 2008 Toyota RAV4 To 5-Way On Jayco Pop-Up
  • Thank you for the photo of the connector on your trailer. That really helps when we are trying to find a solution for someone. Chances are you have a Jayco trailer, and we have an adapter, part # 30104 that allows you to use the 4-way connector you are installing on your RAV4 and just plug it into the adapter in the photo. If that does not work, I recommend re-wiring the trailer and adding a 4-way harness on the trailer like either part # W787264 or part # W787268. You would then have...
