Yakima BackSwing Hitch Adapter Installation

Now you can rack up the bikes and still access your tailgate. The BackSwing hitch adapter turns your hitch product into an easy-to-use swing-away rack that locks up tight while you’re on the road. It works seamlessly with most 2” bike racks, like the HoldUp EVO - as well as almost any other rack using a 2” receiver - to let you swing your fully loaded rack out of the way so you can easily get to your coolers, gear, and Fido.

Blue Loctite on the spring pin is a good idea. The latch clip that came with mine does not look like the one in the video, I got a E-clip instead. Must have been a change to save a few change.

Yes the "latch clip" is an extremely poor design feature here. Completely unreliable.

Will an SUV (kia Telluride) fit in a standard parking spot with the backswing and Yakima Holdup Bike Rack?

[@jaedukoh673]

Does this wobble at all?

[@GarageProducts625]

Why exactly won’t a 1.25” rack w adapter work w this system?

[@GarageProducts625]

Nevermind, I misunderstood. The rack will work but a 1.25” receiver will obviously not fit

[@skiboot1]

@@GarageProducts625 get a 1.25 to 2 inch adapter

Hello,
Would it be possible for you to send me photos of the bike rack to [e-mail], attention Jeremi? I will need to know which bike rack it is, to know if we have an adapter or not.
Have a great day

As if my rack didn't already stick out far enough.
