Remove End Caps on Older Yakima Swingdaddy to Replace Frame Cradles
Question:
I see that to remove/replace hangers on my older Swingdaddy, I need to remove the end caps. I have removed the 2 small screws that seem to be fastening the end cap to the rack, but I cant seem to get the cap off. Is there a trick/technique for removing the cap?

Helpful Expert Reply:
You will have to continue to gently pry off the end cap now that you have the screws removed like you mentioned so you can remove the old cradles and install the new ones # Y8890179. A flat head screwdriver and pliers might be helpful as well.
