  • Do Yakima SkyBox Roof Cargo Boxes Come with Grease In the Lock Core Housing
  • The Yakima SkyBox cargo boxes, like the NX 18 Rooftop Cargo Box # Y45AV, will come with grease in the lock core housing according to my contact at Yakima. She also did point out that the dry graphite lubricant is good to use on the external part of the lock core as well since it doesn't attract dust and dirt.

  • Purpose of the Red S Clips in Glacier Snow Chains
  • To see a picture of what the red S clips that the installation instructions are referring to check out the picture I attached. If all you have is about 1 inch of extra cable you would be fine not using one of the clips to secure it away. The purpose of the clip would be to secure extra cable back to the chain so that the excess wouldn't hit anything. But with only an inch of excess cable you would be just fine.

  • What is Included with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores
  • The Yakima SKS lock cores, # Y07202, includes the two lock cores, 2 regular keys that match the locks, and a change key to remove/install lock cores.

  • Does Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 14" Wheel Come Balanced
  • The Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 14" White Wheel # AM32161 is not machine balanced - nor are any trailer tire and wheel combos. That said, it will be ready to install when you receive it. What happens is the manufacturers line up the light spot on the tire with the heavy spot on the wheel, which is a type of balancing, although it is not the same as what happens with the tire on a passenger car. While you can have the Karrier # AM32161 professionally balanced if you like,...

  • What is Included With Yakima LongArm Bed and Roof Load Extender
  • The Yakima LongArm Bed and Roof Load Extender for 2" Hitches # Y01149-1150 simply includes the extender with a 60" crossbar, though you can add a lock and crossbar pad if you like. For a pad you can use the Crossbar Pad for Yakima LongArm Load Extender # Y07417, and to lock the LongArm and help protect your investment you will need the Yakima HitchLock # Y07235 I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well of the Yakima LongArm Bed and Roof Load Extender for 2" Hitches...

  • Does Let's Go Aero TwinTube U-Build-It Slide-Out Hitch Rack # HMK901 Include LED Light Kit
  • The Let's Go Aero TwinTube U-Build-It Slide-Out Hitch Rack # HMK901 referenced in your question does indeed come with an LED light kit along with a 4-Way harness that will plug right into a 4-Way on the vehicle. I actually went out to our warehouse and looked through the assembly to verify this. The red caps at the end of the base tubes are just reflectors like you mentioned but there are 2 additional LED lights that can be mounted to the unit as well.

  • Does Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 76227 Come with Hardware to Install on a 2017 Subaru Outback
  • Trailer hitch # 76227 does not come with hardware because it uses nuts already on the 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon. The bumper beam on this vehicle fits over 8 studs in the vehicle frame and is held there with 8 matching nuts. This hitch will be sandwiched between the bumper beam and the end plate where it mounts using the same studs and nuts. I have linked the instructions for you to illustrate this. The review you mentioned is actually referring to EcoHitch # 306-X7601 which comes with...

  • 7-Way Trailer Connector Mounting Bracket for 2021 Subaru Outback
  • The EcoHitch # EH34FR doesn't provide an integral bracket for installing a 7-way trailer connector. We offer bracket mounts that usually work pretty well, which will use a pipe clamp to attach to the hitch crossbar, but because the crossbar will be buried behind the bumper cover once the installation is complete, that wouldn't be a good option in this case. The Curt # C58000 Easy Mount bracket would be your best bet.

  • Are There Any Additional Hardware Needed for the Rola Roof Cargo Basket on a 2020 Subaru Outback?
  • I have a solution for you. While the Rola Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 73-1/4" Long x 40-1/2" Wide x 5" Deep - 180 lbs (model 59504 with the 59505 extension) includes all the hardware needed for installation, you will need a roof rack system with crossbars on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon in order to use the basket. If you need a roof rack system that will fit the Rola Roof Cargo basket, the compatible parts depend on if you have factory flush rails or factory raised rails. For a compatible...

  • What is the Difference Between the ETBC7 and Curt 57672
  • The # ETBC7 or # ETBC7L will differ from the Curt # C57672 in that these two parts both come with all of the wiring, breakers, mounting bracket and connectors needed to complete the job; the Curt # C57672 is just the 7 way connector without any of the wiring, breakers or the mounting bracket. Other that than, both connectors are the same.

  • Is Anything Else Needed with the HandRoll Kayak Carrier on a 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • The HandRoll Carrier # Y04082 that you referenced is actually just the part of the carrier that has the wheels. To complete the carrier you also need some saddles like the DeckHand # Y04083. This combination is available for your 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon in the kit # Y04083-04082 and is compatible with round, square, or aero-style crossbars. To add locks to either setup you need the 4 lock core set # Y07204.

  • Does Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire Come Balanced on 8 Wheel
  • Tire and wheel combos we carry, like the Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" Galvanized Wheel # AM30070 you're asking about, don't come balanced since trailer tires don't need to be balanced. If you'd like for them to be balanced you can either use the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads for Tandem Axle Trailers # CA68VR or you can have a shop balance the tires for you.
