Converting Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack to Work in 1-1/4 Trailer Hitch
Question:
Hi, I have a Yakima Holdup for 2 bikes that currently has a 2 inch receiver. I have purchase a new vehicle but the receiver is only 1.25 inch. Is there a replacement 1.25inch shank available, or do I need to purchase the whole spine/shank assembly? Many thanks

You can convert your Yakima HoldUp # Y02443 for 2" hitches to work with a 1-1/4" hitch with just the tongue assembly, which is Replacement 1-1/4" Tongue for Yakima HoldUp Bike Racks # 8880581. You will not need any new hardware to install this assembly on your current HoldUp.
