• Can a High-Low Trailer Hitch Adapter # RM-048-8 be Used To Raise up a Cargo Carrier
  The Roadmaster High-Low Hitch Adapter, # RM-048-8, is only designed for tow bar applications. I do have another, more cost effective solution. You could use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount, # D210. Though it is designed to tow while carrying a cargo carrier or bike rack, you can use it to just carry a cargo carrier. The rise on the receiver is not as high as the High-Low adapter, but the receiver portion has a 350 lb tongue weight.

• Parts Needed To Flat Tow a 2024 Ford Escape
  Since the 2024 Ford Escape is unchanged from the 2023 I see no reason you would not be able to use the Roadmaster Base Plate # RM77GR on the Hybrid trims.

  For your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited you are going to need the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-5. The crossbar integrated into this mount is required due to your chassis. On the newer JL Wrangles the Base Plate # RM-521453-5 you found is designed to fit the chassis has more strength and does not need the crossbar. I recommend pairing this with the Roadmaster Nighthawk # RM-676. The Roadmaster Accessory Kit # RM-9284-2, Wiring # HM56200, and Charge Line # RM-156-25...

• Can a 2015 Chevrolet Sonic LTZ With Automatic Transmission Be Flat Towed?
  While your 2015 Chevrolet Sonic LTZ with an automatic transmission can be flat towed I would recommend using a Dolly # DM9713045 since you are required to stop and run the engine when towing(see owners manual) for extended periods of times. This dolly also fold up which is great when you do not have a lot of storage area. If you do not mind the additional steps while flat towing here is a list of the components you will need.

• Recommended High Low Adapter for a Yakima Stagetwo Bike Rack
  If you've already got an extension that pushes the rack out to clear your spare tire you aren't going to be able to add a second adapter. We don't recommend using two hitch adapters at the same time because not only does it reduce the weight capacity of the hitch even more (more than the 50% from using one adapter), it can also be dangerous for other motorists. I'd recommend just using a taller high low adapter like the Roadmaster High-Low Adapter for Tow Bars # RM-048-8 which has 8"...

• Can the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch Be Used for Flat Towing using a Class IV Hitch and High Low Adapter
  The Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 would work great for your application as long as your Class IV hitch and the high low adapter are both 2 inch hitches. The Roadmaster 8 inch high low receiver that we currently have # RM-048-8 is a 2 inch receiver. For your application you might want to consider using 2 of the Roadmaster Quiet Hitches, one for the receiver at you truck and one for the receiver on the adapter.

• High/Low Hitch Adapter to Keep Nighthawk Tow Bar RM-677 Level for Best Operation
  Roadmaster does specify the 3-inch safe zone for tow bar height differences at the motorhome and toad ends. Really any tow bar will perform better when it is level since there will be less arm tube friction. A level tow bar will also endure less mechanical stress and it will put less stress on the base plates, the towed vehicle's frame and its suspension. Since you have invested in the Nighthawk # RM-677, one of the best tow bars available, I recommend you protect your investment and...

The Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 is the tow bar I recommend using. This tow bar has integrated lights on the bars which will help with hooking up and disconnecting when it is dark. The Roadmaster Accessory Kit for Nighthawk...

• Hitch Adapter to Raise Height of Cargo Carrier for Batter Ground Clearance
  We can help you with a 2-inch hitch adapter that will give you a height rise for better ground clearance with your CargoPod hitch cargo carrier. I suggest the Roadmaster 2-inch High-Low Adapter # RM-048-8. The Roadmaster has a solid steel shank for strength rather than a hollow one like the Malone # MPG544 and it gives you a full 8-inches of rise. This too will reduce your hitch's rated capacity by 50-percent, the same as the Malone, and it also shares the same 400-lb tongue weight (TW)...

• Hitch Adapter and Bike Rack Recommendation for E-Bike and Flat Towing
  To replace your Roadmaster High-Low Adapter # RM-048-8 I recommend using this replacement shank from Gen-Y: - Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-404 I like this option because it's more heavy-duty than pretty much every other adapter, plus it has a receiver above the shank so your bike rack will be at a higher location for better clearance. Then for a bike rack I recommend using the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR and then using the Swagman Ramp and Bridge # S32YR to...

• Which High/Low Adapter for Flat Towing Lifted Jeep
  You'll need a high/low adapter to bring the tow bar within 3 inches +/- of level.
