For a Swagman Original 4-bike rack we offer part # P113, Replacement Top Plate for Swagman Original Series 4 Bike Carriers from 1999 through 2008.

We do offer a wide range of other replacement parts for many brands of bike racks, including hitch-mount racks that go back a few years. All of our bike rack replacement parts can be seen on the link provided for you.

You may find it easiest to sort the products by brand since this will help narrow down the items shown to those that can fit your rack. Some parts like rubber straps may be interchangeable between brands but metal hardware generally is not.

Please feel free to submit a photo of your rack and any model number information you may have if you cannot find what you need using the linked replacement parts page.
