Recommendation to Prevent Movement with the Yakima DoubleDown 4 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack
Question:
Hi I purchased a bike rack Yakima model #02424for my SUV 07 pathfinder. I was just wondering if you sell any accessories for this product. In particular Im looking for maybe a wedge to keep the rack from teetering up and down when loaded I saw something similar on a vehicle in a parking lot. Let me know thanks.

The Yakima DoubleDown 4 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack that you referenced has an anti-rattle hitch pin built into the rack already. But to provide more support for the rack all we have that would work would be the Curt Stabilizer strap part # 18050.
This would attach to the top of the rack and then get ran to the upper hatch seam of your vehicle and would provide it with a bit more support. Check out the video I attached.
