  • Can I Purchase a Larger Bike Saddle for My Fat Tire Electric Bikes on My Yakima HoldUp # Y02445?
  • I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, I confirmed with my contact at Yakima that they do not make fat-tire cradles for the Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" Hitches # Y02445. The only other option for transporting your fat bikes is to purchase a rack that has cradles that are wide enough to fit your 4-1/2 inch wide tires.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2010 Chevy Colorado Crew Cab Behind a Motor Home
  • First, you are going to want to check the owners manual on your 2010 Chevy Colorado to determine if it can be flat towed. I did some research and found that if you have a 2 wheel drive model with the 4L60E transmission, you would need a transmission lube pump kit from Remco to flat tow the truck. If you have a 2 wheel drive manual, the vehicle cannot be flat towed. And if you have a 4 wheel drive automatic or manual it is flat towable as is. Make sure to consult the owners manual to verify...

  • How to Connect Truck Topper 3rd Brake Light on 2020 Chevy Colorado
  • I have a solution for you, but there is not a plug and play type harness for this application that I'm aware of, so the easiest way is to tap into the tail lights on the truck. In order to power the third brake light on your truck topper via the tail lights you will need the Pacer Performance 3rd Brake Light Logic Module part # PP20-702, since the brake/turn signal circuits are combined. This means you'll need to separate the brake/turn signals or else the third brake light would blink...
