Video Transcript for Kuat Cargo Carriers and Bike Racks Replacement Lock Cores Review
AJ: What's up everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be checking out how to replace the lock core in some of your Kuat accessories. Maybe you bought this bike rack, the NV 2.0, separately from you bought the Vagabond roof basket, or maybe you got the snowboard carriers. You bought them at separate times, they all have different lock cores in them. It's a pain to have a big old set of keys in your pocket when you're trying to go unlock things, keep figuring out which one they're all numbered different. You buy a lock core set from Kuat, you can fix that and get them all keyed alike, you can buy them in kits up two, four and six.
Let's see how to replace one.We have a two core system today, I'm just going to show you how easy it is to replace the core on one of your cable locks, and the process is going to be the exact same for all the Kuat accessories and their cores. Coming closer you can see, you want to check the number on there. You see how this one's 1-0-6, that doesn't match what we have already. So I bought this core kit to get it matching. Look at the core replacement kit here.
It's going to be 14. So don't worry, it says that on your keys too so you know what keys to use, but after you replaced all your cores, you can just throw those other keys away.You take your old keys, 1-0-6, matching with 1-0-6 on the core. We'll turn it. And that should, sorry I moved it a little bit, it should line up this little hole here. You take the tool that came with your kit and insert that in that gap, that way it holds the key and core in place.
You can pull out your old keys, put in the removal key, that disengages the locks on the inside and pulls out your old core. We'll get one of our new 0-1-4 for our removal key in there again, when you go to put your new core in there, just make sure you align the tabs with the gaps in there, the core falls back in there and stays flush like that. Then you just put your one thumb on top of the core, pull the key and it's in there. You can also pull the removal tool out as well.With a new core in on this side, I'm going to repeat that on the cable lock on the other side. And if we had bought a four core kit or a six core kit, we could go ahead and replace the rest of our accessories, like a ski and snowboard carrier, or even the Vagabond X.
Go ahead and get them all keyed alike that way you only have these keys on your key ring and they work for everything you got that about. Does it for our look at the Kuat replacement cores. Hope this helps..

view full answer... - How to Replace Kuat NV 2.0 Lock Core Without Key?Kuat used to have specific replacement keys, but now they send you randomly numbered lock cores and matching keys. Before I could recommend that you look for the number on the lock's face of your Kuat NV # NV22B and getting the matching key, but now you need to replace the locks completely. To replace the lock core, it needs to be in the unlocked position. Without a key, I recommend taking your bike rack to a locksmith to try to get it unlocked.

view full answer... - How to Replace the Lock Cores of a Kuat Cargo Carrier or Bike Rack if you Don't Have the KeysI have a possible solution for you. First, though, it's important to note that Kuat does not offer replacement keys or cable locks. Also, since Kuat gives random keys for their replacement lock cores, the odds of you getting the same key with those are very low. Finally, in order to replace the core with a new one yourself, you need the original key.

view full answer... - Replacement Lock Cores/Keys For A Kuat NV 2.0 W/ A Missing KeyI went ahead and checked for a replacement key for your Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # NV22B, and it does not appear that Kuat offers a replacement. Instead, what you can do is use the Replacement Lock Cores for Kuat Cargo Carriers and Bike Rack # LOCO. This kit includes 2 Lock cores, 3 keys, 1 core removal tool, and a burlap storage bag.

view full answer... - Replacing Lost Key For Kuat NV Bike RackIn the past, Kuat would be able to match keys with lock cores based on the code, but now that is not necessary as you would just need to order Replacement Lock Cores # LOCO for your Kuat NV Bike Rack # NV22B. This comes with 2 lock cores, 2 keys, and the lock core removal tool. Keep in mind, if your lock cores are not already unlocked then you will need to go to a locksmith or try drilling out the lock core yourself so that you can install the new set. I attached a video for you to check out.
view full answer... - Can Replacement Lock Cores for Kuat Cargo Carriers and Bike Racks be Ordered With Specific KeyIt had been possible at one point to get specific lock cores from Kuat but that has changed and specific lock cores and keys are not available. What that means is if you need a matching set of lock cores you will need to replace all the cores at the same time. The cores come in sets of Two # LOCO, Four # LOCO4 and Six # LOCO6, so because you need a set of three matching cores your best option is to get a set of set of four, the Replacement Lock Cores # LOCO4.
view full answer... - Needing Replacement Lock Cores For Kuat NV Bike RackAt one time we were able to obtain specific lock cores from Kuat, but they only offer the cores in randomly numbered sets of 2, part # LOCO, sets of 4 as part # LOCO4 or 6 as # LOCO6. If you purchase a set, all the cores will be keyed alike. So your best bet would be to purchase a set and replace all your locks at once. The very good news is that when compared to what Thule and Yakima charge for their replacement lock cores, the one Kuat sells are a bargain.
