Yes, if you filter through our fitguide system for your 2019 Lincoln MKZ you'll see what roof rack options will fit your vehicle. While we do have a roof rack fit for your 2019 MKZ, the SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # SR1003 does not fall into that category. In fact, it looks like SportRack doesn't have this listed as a fit for any Lincoln model out there.
For your application I recommend checking out the Yakima CoreBar roof rack as it has a simple yet attractive design... view full answer...
Yes, you can use a different branded weight distribution shank with your Equal-i-Zer WDS!
Since your Ford F-350 has a 2-1/2" receiver, and you're wanting to stick with Equal-i-Zer if possible, take a look at:
-The Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4900.
This shank has a maximum rise of 10", a maximum drop of 6", a maximum towing capacity of 16,000lbs, and can be used with a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" trailer hitch. view full answer...
You are completely correct in your reasoning and we aren't sure why more bike rack manufacturers give the green light for flat towed vehicles.
The good news is that more bike rack manufacturers are getting comfortable giving their racks the stamp of approval for flat-towed vehicles. For your application I recommend picking up the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack # KU74FR which carries 2 bikes, fits with both 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, and has a unique U-Shaped frame that makes it easier to load... view full answer...
The type of hitch made for your 2012 Lincoln MKZ is a light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class I type, such as # 24865 and # C11390. Since both install exactly the same way and offer identical capacities I suggest the power-priced Draw-Tite # 24865.
This hitch comes complete with all required hardware and the installation in your car is shown in the linked video.
You'll also need a compatible Class I cargo carrier such as one of those shown on the linked page. The one I suggest is the Curt # C18110... view full answer...
The folks at Hollywood Racks originally determined their trunk-mount Express 3 Bike Rack # HRE3 was a good match to the 2012 Lincoln MKZ but later determined (based on customer feedback) that it was not a good fit. At this point they do not recommend that rack on your car. I confirmed this with their Fit Guide. In fact they recommend no trunk-mount racks for your MKZ due to the potential for the weight of the bikes to damage the trunk lid and/or hinge. We will update our fit guide to reflect... view full answer...
The rubber pads on the Thule Passage, part # TH910XT are designed to protect the vehicle finish but you will want to make sure your 2016 MKZ does not have anything that would mar the finish when the bike carrier is installed. We do recommend adding a coat of car wax to the areas where the bike carrier touches to make sure it does not scuff the paint surface.
I recommend the Thule OutWay, part # TH45JV for your Lincoln. This carrier uses 2 rubber coated straps to secure the rack to the... view full answer...
Yes, I checked with Thule and the Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier # TH910XT that you referenced will fit your 2013 Lincoln MKZ.
If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Thule Bike Adapter Bar # TH982XT to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide... view full answer...
Yes, the automatic transmission in your 2017 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is capable of towing a trailer. According to your owner's manual your vehicle has a maximum towing capacity of 1,000 lbs. Therefore, as long as your U-Haul trailer is less than 1,000 lbs. then you can safely tow it.
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle you will need a trailer hitch, wiring harness, and ball mount/hitch ball. For this, I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24897, the Curt... view full answer...
The Thule Transporter Combi Hitch Mounted Enclosed Cargo Carrier # TH665C has internal measurements of 48-1/2" long x 23-1/3" high x 24-1/2" wide and the cooler you mentioned looks to have dimensions of 43.20" long x 19.20" high x 19.20" wide so it will definitely fit. I don't have any specific coolers that I know will fit but you can use the internal measurements I mentioned to determine if any other coolers you're looking into can fit or not. view full answer...
It was a smart idea to check, and I did verify for you that your 2017 Lincoln MKZ sedan is 100 percent compatible with the Thule trunk rack, which is the following part:
- Thule Gateway Pro 2-Bike Rack # TH88VR
This is an easy-to-use rack that is going to keep your bikes steady because it holds them at different points, which protects the bikes from coming into contact with each other and your MKZ. It also has an integrated cable lock which secures your bikes to the rack, as well as a... view full answer...
Possibly; if your 2019 Lincoln MKZ with the 3.0L engine has FRONT wheel drive then there is an option, from Curt:
- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12091
If your MKZ has the 3.0L engine and ALL wheel drive then the # C12091 won't fit; I verified this directly with Curt for you. view full answer...
