  • How to Carry Four Bikes on 2008 Chevy Cobalt Sedan
  • If your Cobalt sedan is a Sport Model, I would recommend the Draw-Tite Class I receiver, part # 24756. For a non-Sport model, go with the Curt Class I, part # C11430. However due to the very limited weight capacity of the Class I receiver, both the hitch and bicycle rack manufacturers all agree that any bike rack used on a Class I receiver should not be used to carry any more than two bikes. Carrying additional bikes can place the weight of the bikes too far away from the hitch, causing...

  • Hitch Recommendation for a 2009 Chevy Cobalt Coupe

  • Wind Deflector Fairing for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars Roof Rack on a 2007 Chevy Colbalt
  • I recommend the Rhino Rack Fairing Part # RRRF3. This fairing is 44 inches long and will work great with your Rhino Rack cross bars that are 46 inches long. This fairing will deflect the wing around your roof rack for a quieter ride and reduce the wind noise that you hear at speeds. Please take a look at the placement of the attachment hardware on this fairing and compare it to your roof rack. You will want to make sure that the mounting brackets do not interfere with any other carriers...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2008 Chevy Cobalt Sedan
  • First place to check is the how many doors do you have? 2 doors equals coupe and 4 equals sedan. Do you see any badges at the rear of the vehicle on the trunk that say SS or Sport? If you can get back to me with that info I can see what you'd need.

  • Parts Needed to Flat 2010 Chevy Cobalt
  • The Roadmaster Sterling Tow Bar part # RM-576 is a really great tow bar to flat tow your 2010 Chevy Cobalt but you do need a few more other components. Next you'll need a base plate kit which for that we have the part # 523137-1. For lighting/safety cables, locks, and covers for the tow bar we have the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain kit part # RM-9284-2 which comes with all of that as one part number. The diode kit that comes with this allows you to splice into the taillight wiring so...

  • Recommended Roof Rack For 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt With Naked Roof
  • We do carry roof rack systems that will work on your 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt with the naked roof. The roof rack I recommend is the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero system. This system features crossbars that are aerodynamic and extremely quiet compared to other crossbars. For this system you would need to order part # RRVA118B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK181.

  • Can a 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt Sport Tow a Small Trailer
  • Yes, for a trailer hitch that is a confirmed fit for your 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt Sport I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24756 which is a custom fit so minimal modifications are required and it has a 2,000 lb gross trailer weight capacity. Therefore, you could absolutely tow a small trailer with this trailer hitch so long as the vehicle is also rated for it. In order to complete your towing setup you are also going to need a trailer wiring harness, the T-One...

  • Does Thule Passage TH910XT Fit 2009 Chevy Cobalt with Factory Spoiler
  • As long as the spoiler on your 2009 Chevy Cobalt is the factory the Thule Passage # TH910XT is a confirmed fit whether it's a sedan or a coupe. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 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...

  • Choosing the Correct Trailer Hitch and Accessories for a 2008 Chevy Cobalt LT1
  • For the 2008 model year, the Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24756 fits the Sport, Sport Sedan, and SS Coupe models of the Chevy Cobalt. If you have a regular sedan or coupe model you would need the Curt hitch # C11430. The underside of each may look similar but the mounting locations and hitch design are different which is why there are different hitches for each. I have included links to the installation instructions for both hitches for you to view. If you require the first hitch, 24756,...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2008 Chevy Cobalt with Rear Spoiler
  • Hollywood Racks recommends using the Hollywood Express 3-bike rack # HRE3 for a 2008 Chevy Cobalt that has the rear spoiler. You could also look at the Yakima HangOut # Y02638 which in another 3-bike option. The HangOut also works with most factory spoilers. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # HRBA-PRO. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level...

  • Sturdy Roof Rack Recommendation for 2008 Chevy Cobalt
  • For a vehicle like your 2008 Chevy Cobalt I would not want to recommend a track style of rack as the best option. The tracks aren't going to flex enough to fit well and the clamp style racks are much sturdier than one might think so even though that's not the option you listed wanting it would be your overall best option still. Rhino Rack does offer a heavy duty roof rack that fits your vehicle with the # RB1250, # RRRLKHD, and # DK181 if you have a sedan or part # DK182 for a coupe but...

  • Curt Trailer Hitch for 2009 Chevy Cobalt to Use with Wheelchair Carrier
  • For your 2009 Chevy Cobalt you will need either the Curt Class I Trailer Hitch # C11447 if you have the SS model or the Curt # C11430 if you do not. Both of the above Curt options for your Chevy Cobalt feature a 200 pound tongue weight capacity. This will work for your wheelchair carrier only if the combined weight of both the carrier itself and your wheelchair falls below this limit. I have attached the written installation instructions that you can check out as well.

  • Hitch Recommendation for a 2006 Chevy Cobalt
  • Based on the size of the food cart you have the only option I can recommend for you would be to install a hitch on your 2006 Chevy Cobalt like # C11430 or part # 24756 if you have an SS model and tow a small trailer. The dimensions of the food cart are too big to fit on a cargo carrier. The hitch I recommended comes with pin and clip. You will still need a ball mount. For a ball you can use # 19256 (1-7/8 inch diameter) or # 19258 (2 inch diameter). You will need to check the coupler...

  • Flat Towing 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt LS with Roadmaster Falcon Tow Bar
  • That's interesting that they recommended the # RM-025 which only is listed as a fit for the Tracker tow bar. Since you have a Falcon tow bar already what you would need is a Roadmaster base plate kit that fits your 2007 Chevy Cobalt like the # 523137-1. If the tow bar you have does not have a crossbar that comes with it you'd also need the # 910021-00.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt Sedan
  • The trailer hitch that I recommend for your 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt sedan is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11430. This custom-fit trailer hitch lets you tow a light trailer or carry a bike rack or cargo carrier with your Chevrolet Cobalt. For a ball mount you want # 3594 along with the pin and clip # PC2. For a 1-7/8 inch diameter ball use # 19256. For a 2 inch use # 19258. For trailer wiring, use # 118398. I have included links to the instructions for...
