  • Recommendation for Carrying Bikes on a 2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack That Fits 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse SE
  • The Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Carrier - Fixed Arms - Trunk Mount # HRE3 will not fit for your 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse SE model because of the spoiler on it. My research shows that the SE models have spoilers. The Hollywood Racks Express 3 part # HRE3 would only work on Eclipses that do not have spoilers. We do not have a hitch available either, so a hitch-mounted bike rack is not an option. Our only solution to carry a bike, is the Vacuum Cup Mounted bike rack, the SeaSucker...

  • How to Carry Skis on a 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS
  • You might be able to find some way to secure skis to the Hollywood Racks trunk mount bike rack # HRE3 but it was not designed for that application, and I do not recommend it. Or you could install a Rhino-Rack roof rack using: Aero bars # RRVA126B-2 Feet # RRRLKVA Fit kit # DK082 Then you can use ski carrier # RR576. I have included some links on the Tram and Rhino-Rack ski carrier for you.

  • Parts Needed to Install Snowboard Rack on 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  • Before you can add a snowboard rack on your roof you need a roof rack. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero roof rack on your 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse. It's an aero bar design which has a cleaner look and reduces wind noise. You need parts: 49 inch Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 Legs # RRRLKVA Fit Kit # DK082 Once you have the roof rack I recommend the Thule SnowPack # TH7324 for a snowboard carrier. It fits the aero bars, carries up to 2 boards, and includes locks.

  • Hitch Recommendation and Comparison for a 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  • We do not have any hitches to fit your 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse. If you were wanting a hitch to carry bikes, you could instead use a trunk mounted bike rack. We have the Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Carrier - Fixed Arms - Trunk Mount # HRE3 which you can use to carry 1-3 bikes. Please take into account that this rack will not work with spoilers. Check out the attached video to see it in action.

  • Flat Towing a 2004 Mitsubishi Eclipse Convertible and Carrying Bikes on the RV at the Same Time
  • We do not have any options for carrying bikes on your 2004 Mitsubishi Eclipse convertible. Trunk racks do not work with it and there is not currently a hitch available for it. If you need to just be able to flat tow the Eclipse and use your existing bike rack at the same time then you can use a dual hitch receiver such as # RM-077-4 with a 4 inch rise/drop or # RM-077-2 with a 2-1/4 inch rise/drop. These were specifically designed for this purpose.

  • Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack to Clear the Rear Bumper on a 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  • There is not a hitch available for your 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse. If you already have a hitch, there should be enough room to install a platform style bike rack. There were only Class I trailer hitches available for your Eclipse, so you will need a bike rack that is compatible with a Class I hitch and you will be limited to carrying 2 bikes at most. The hitch that was available at one time, had a tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds. The combined weight of the bike rack and bikes cannot...

  • Can 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse V6 with 5-Speed Transmission be Flat Towed
  • I did some checking and it looks like your 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse V6 with a 5 speed can be flat towed as-is. At this time though we only have base plate kits that fit the Spyder/convertible versions of your vehicle. For that you'd want the Blue Ox kit part # BX1964 that you referenced. You'll need a tow bar which the part # BX7420 would be what I recommend as it's very easy to use and also comes with safety cables. For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to...

  • Best Universal Muffler for 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer
  • There are two main things that need to be considered when choosing a universal muffler, fit and sound/performance. You will need to choose a muffler with the correct inlet diameter, and sized so that it will fit in the space provided under the vehicle. Mufflers that are more free flowing increase horsepower, torque and fuel efficiency, thus improving engine performance. However, the less restrictive the muffler is, the noisier it is. The MagnaFlow Stainless Steel, Straight-Through Universal...

  • Blue Ox Base Plates to Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter and Flat Towing a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse
  • In order to use your Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar, # RM-522, with Blue Ox Base Plates, you will need to use an adapter. The correct adapter is Roadmaster Tow Bar to Blue Ox Brackets Adapter, # RM-031. The correct base plates for a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse are # BX1941. If your 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse has an F4A51 or F4A42 automatic transmission, you will need to use a transmission lube pump to flat tow it. If it has a 5 speed manual transmission, it can be flat-towed. If it has...
