Convert original MAXXRAXX for use on modern vehicles with 2-bolt flange tow bars

In order to comply with EU legislation (Type Approval EC94/20) and changes in manufacturing standards, it is necessary to replace the foot and S-tube of your original (Pre 1999) MAXXRAXX for use on vehicles registered after 1 August 1998.

This upgrade kit is for use on vehicles fitted with 2-bolt, flange plate, tow bars. The kit consists of a new foot plate, an upright (depending on the vehicle in use), replacement flange plate bolts, a clamp bolt and 1 auxiliary strap. Original MAXXRAXX bike racks were supplied with 1 auxiliary strap. When carrying more than 2 bikes we specify that you must always use 2 auxiliary straps to prevent shock loading of the tow bar.

Please refer to convert your rack for use with a SwanNeck if your new vehicle is fitted with a SwanNeck tow bar.

If you are unsure about the rack you have (or are considering buying second hand), particularly for use on a modern vehicle, please contact us directly for more information.
