Expert Answers about Toyota Yaris


  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2015 Toyota Yaris with Manual Transmission
  • A car-mount tow bar like the Blue Ox Adventurer # BX7322 is not vehicle specific but its fit will depend on using compatible base plates or adding adapters if the base plates are from a different manufacturer. Flat towing requires a few components in addition to the tow bar. You'll also need a lighting/wiring solution, safety cables and a supplementary braking system.

  • Recommended Replacement Hitch Hardware Kit for Curt C11480 on 2018 Toyota Yaris
  • The Curt hitch # C11480 that you referenced does indeed fit the 2015 through 2019 Toyota Yaris as long as you do not have the SE. If you do not have the SE, you are okay installing it on your car. Although it was admirable that your friend made the effort to save most of the installation hardware for you it cannot be re-used a second time.

  • Will Steering Wheel of 2008 Toyota Yaris Need to be Locked to Pull With Tow Dolly
  • When dolly towing a vehicle such as your 2008 Toyota Yaris, you will indeed want to lock the steering wheel.

You'll also need to equip your tow vehicle/motorhome with a brake controller. A remote mount brake controller like the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty, part # RED24FR would be an excellent choice....

  • Trailer Hitch and Accessories for Towing Small Trailer With 2013 Toyota Yaris SE 5 Door Hatchback
  • For the 2013 Toyota Yaris 5 door hatchback (which is how Toyota refers to your vehicle), you'll want to use the Draw-Tite class I hitch, part # 24911. For a trailer wiring harness, use # 119178KIT. You'll also need a # 3593 ball mount and # 19256 for a 1-7/8 or # 19258 for a 2 inch trailer ball. I'll link to an install video for the hitch and a video showing a typical trailer wiring harness installation.

  • Installing the Replacement Hitch Hardware for the Yakima SwingDaddy Bike Rack
  • It looks like you purchased the Replacement Mounting Hardware, # Y8890185. This should have come with the square, black shank insert, a square nut that fits inside of the shank insert, a flat washer, a lock washer and a threaded pin and clip. I made a short video showing you how the pieces go together.
