Question:
Hi, Will the part below work on my rack? My rack was purchased in 07/08 at camping World and has grey rubber protectors not the red ones. The knobs on my rack hit the top plate when tightenng making it difficult and a pain to lock the bikes in well. It looks like there may be more clearence with the one with red protectors? I need to replace all six grey protectors as they are wearing through to metal and damaging my bikes. Thanks

The compatible replacement plate for your bike rack would be # P120. The plate includes 3 of the grey pads, if you needed 3 additional pads they are available as part # P0023.
Swagman no longer carries the red pads as an individual replacement part. They are the same thickness as the grey pads according to my contact.
