Yakima ForkLift Roof Mounted Bike Rack Review - 2013 Chrysler Town and Country- Video
Today on our 2013 Chrysler Town and Country, we'll be test fitting the Yakama forklift, roof mounted bike rack, part number Y02098. With the factory roof rack system on our vehicle, we'll begin our test fit by placing the forklift directly onto our crossbars. Here at the front, we'll bring the front clamp around our front bar, drop the T bolt through the appropriate slot, and tighten it down. We'll then need to remove our skewer, place the T slot around our T bolt, and then reinstall our skewer. We'll go ahead and leave it loose, that ways it's set for when we're ready to load our bike. Here at the rear, we'll bring our rear clamp around our rear bar, drop the T bolt through the appropriate slot, and tighten it down to secure it. With the front and rear of our bike rack secured, we'll go ahead and make sure that our rear wheel strap is undone. more
