I was looking for something to join two specific products- 2021 Full size Bronco and the Falcon All Terrain Tow bar I acquired from a friend. So I went on etrailers website and sought that out. After finding something I thought was right, I wanted to be sure by asking their amazing customer service. I got a reply very quickly that the product I was looking at would not work. Kevin, the customer rep, found what I needed(which was actually for a jeep) but fit my application. It was cheaper and easier that what I had picked out too! I received it about a week later and it fits perfectly. I need to wire the Bronco now for lights but I am very excited to take her for a spin. This is not the first nor the last product I will buy from etrailers and I will never hesitate to ask their wonderful customer service! Keep up the great work guys!!

The product still works like it did a year ago. I now have the Bronco wired and the cords dont bind or get in the way at all. The ease of the hook up and disconnect is so convenient that it almost feels like cheating. Great Customer Service and recommendations from this company!!

The adapters seem to have some slop, contacted Etrailer and was told to contact Roadmaster. I have almost 1/4 inch slop, Roadmaster says the gap is not uncommon and to add washers to take up slop. We will see how it works out.

Direct fit on my roadmaster tow bar to connect to my JK DV8 bumper D-rings. Shipping was fast and on time.

They work great. I would highly recomend getting the padlocks to secure because I have had the hitch pins work loose and almost come out.

Great product I bought it for a Excalibur ll towbar hook up.
They do fit the bar but you will need to use spacers if you remove the bar end pieces. However being a machinist I elected to bore .015-.020 from bar end ID which I felt was best. Pic before adding the bored ends.

The USPS said it put the package in a locker. We have no lockers in my neighborhood, only mail boxes. I have complained to the USPS. On the day they said they delivered it, no one on my street received any mail. As far as I am concerned, if you are going to use the USPS for delivery, I cannot do business with you. The USPS is a poorly run operation and the victims have no recourse.

I am sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience with the shipping. We do use other sources for shipping outside of USPS. I am sending your information over to our customer service department for them to get this corrected for you.

Works as advertised. Jeep is lifted with 35 inch tires so had to purchase another adapter to level tow bar. Using these on D-ring tabs on Poison Spyder winch bumper. Easy to install and use.



by:
2010 Jeep Wrangler

O.K. I'll play... Fantastic fit for a casting. I wasn't expecting this to work well, given that I couldn't find one single online explanation nor video of "towing a jeep from bumper eyelets". The weight savings of using the aftermarket bumper D-rings vs. the tow adaptor plate, common with many T.O.A.D. towbar manufacturers is huge. These make the transition to towing the jeep much easier. A perfect retrofit for the arm ends of a Sterling towbar... product from Roadmaster

  • How To Use Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar with Jeep D-Rings
    In order to use the Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar part # RM-422 with aftermarket d-rings on a Jeep you'll need to add the Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts to Roadmaster Motor Home Mount Tow Bars part # RM-035 for 3/4" thick or part # RM-035-1 for 1" thick.

  • Dimensions of the 1" Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter item # RM-035-1
    The space between the ears of the Roadmaster Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts item # RM-035-1 is slightly more than 1" to fit D-Ring tabs that are 1"thick. The hole for the pin is 1" in diameter. The pin itself is 7/8" in diameter. I have attached a diagram I made below to illustrate these measurements.

  • D-Ring Adapter for Aftermarket Bumper and Falcon 2 Tow Bar on Jeep CJ-7
    Are you sure the D-rings on your bumper are 5/8" thick? I only ask because that is an uncommon size so you may just want to verify you have 5/8" as opposed to the more common 3/4" D-rings. If it turns out you do in fact have 3/4" thick D-rings then what you would need is the Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts # RM-035-1, which will work with your Falcon 2 # RM-520 tow bar.

    Yes, there are a couple of adapters that will work with the Roadmaster Falcon 5250 tow bar and connect to the welded rings on your aftermarket bumper.

  • Can Roadmaster Tow Bar Connect to Jeep Wrangler with D-Rings on Off Road Bumper
    Roadmaster has D-Ring adapters for their base plate kits like with the # RM-035 for a 3/4 inch thick D-ring, part # RM65FR for a 1 inch D-ring adapter that is extended or the part # RM-035-1 for a 1 inch thick D-ring standard length.

  • Does The Rampage Rock Rage Bumper Have Add-On D-Rings And What Is Needed To Flat Tow A 1999 Jeep TJ
    The Rampage Rock Rage Front Bumper for Jeep # RA97801 doesn't have a D-ring add-on option so you'd have to have a qualified fabricator weld D-rings in to the bumper if you wanted them. You'd also need to have that fabricator ensure that the bumper is properly secured enough to the frame to be able to tow from the D-rings. If you end up being able to tow from the D-rings then you'll want either the Roadmaster # RM-035 (3/4" thick D-rings) or RM-035-1 (1" thick D-rings) and a Roadmaster...

    I confirmed with Demco that your Demco Commander II Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511012 is compatible with the Roadmaster's D-Ring Adapters # RM-035 and # RM-035-1. Their tech did state that you would most likely need some additional bushings to fill in the gap because the arms of the Commander are a bit thinner and that these would need to be sourced locally at a hardware store. I do also want to highly stress that you must ensure that your bumper is rated to tow from. If it is not stated...

    Before you order that front bumper you should check with the manufacturer to make sure you can flat tow the vehicle using the D-rings on the front of it.

If they are 1 inch thick instead you'd want the part # RM-035-1. I can't post the picture you send up due to copyright issues but judging by the location of them they should work...
