Best 1986 Dodge Ram Pickup Tow Bar Wirings

The Roadmaster Tow Bar Wiring I purchased works great and was reasonably easy to install on my 2012 Dodge Ram 3500. It is a great product at a decent price and I would highly recommend it. Thanks guys.

I installed the kit today. It came as advertised. Good product and would buy it again.

The wiring system installed on my 2016 Ram was easy to install and continues to work perfectly

Always completely satisfied with Etrailer service and products! Jamie B is very knowledgable and courteous!

Very complete kit. My only problem mounting it in a 2014 Chevy Spark is the limited space for the diodes. After much trial and fitting I found a suitable location. See photo.

Finished wiring and first effort to plug in red flex coil to the Jeep and the outside protection cover broke apart; very disappointing. Trying to contact Etrailer for replacement.

Got the kit installed. Using on my toad (RAM Dakota) to be pulled behind my motorhome. My first one like this and easy and good quality product. Highly recommend.

I will tell you what I like about this wiring converter. IT just plain WORKS exactly as it is supposed to. I used quality crimp connectors that seal with heat and the installation was easy and after more than a year and all kinds of weather there have been no issues. I am not surprised as I have bought from etrailer before and have never had a problem with an order or quality.

East to wire up.. made it a lot less headache to do without it

I needed to wire our ‘17 Chevrolet Sonic for towing behind our Motorhome. My local shop wanted over $xxx to install such wiring. Online I found the Blue Ox wiring kit and decided to do it myself. The kit and instructions were very complete and informative and it took me about three hours to complete the installation. The time consuming part was removing and reinstalling trim and panels to hide the wiring inside the car. The thing I like most about this kit is it’s independent of the cars wiring system and I’m very happy with it.

I put this base plate on with the assistance of my wife very easy to install. Do recommend the video to install

Purchased the 10" drop/ rise receiver to make hooking up the tow bar to my jeep level. My jeep has 4" of lift on 33's and the truck is a stock 2013 dodge ram. This receiver leveled them perfectly. The light kit I purchased also works great.

Overall it worked fine. Easy to use. We did encounter some high winds that twisted the light sideways once. Magnet strength otherwise is strong enough.

i used this on my trailer so that i was able to use taillights with separate (amber) turn signals, it works like it is supposed to, BUT it doesn't work with LED tails bc it drops the brake wire voltage coming out of the convertor to 10v causing the brake light LEDs to not function properly; i solved this issue with a voltage regulator (10-32v in - 13.8v out) so if you've got a little wiring knowledge or are using incandescent taillights then it will work great for you.

1 Tail Light Converter - C56196 : i was a little confused, but finely figured it out. 2 Tail Light Isolating Diodes (Qty 4) - 48955 : i was told i would need these (their for towing a vehicle, not a trailer) etrailer salesperson should had known that(they were told) wasted money, cost to ship back

Haven't installed yet but service was excellent

Worked perfect for setting my 2001 Jeep Wrangler up for flat towing behind my Motorhome. The instructions were clearly written, the diode was clearly marked and all the connectors were there to make this wiring job simple.

This place is the best! Placed my order- easy peasy-delivered on time- Watched install video- again made it so easy and saved $1000 installation fee!!! Thanks for being a great company and special thanks to Carol C my order specialist !!!

I installed this myself along with a tow bar from another company at the same time, in about 4 hours. installation was straightforward and worked perfectly. saved about $800 in total labor.

Very handy to have

They work great on my Class C pulling my Honda CRV.

Great friendly service & superior knowledge of the product

Ordering and shipping was fast and easy. Products arrived in good condition. I haven't installed them yet, but it all looks as advertised. Not my first order with etrailer and the customer service was outstanding as always. Why anyone would order from any place other then etrailer I cannot fathom.

The tail light kit was easy to install, but I had to replace one of the lights within three months. The lights don't appear to be very durable. I purchased a different LED bulb as a replacement and it appears to be working good now.

Your products have been perfect, good fits and quality products. The towing base plate for my ford Fiesta fit with little modification and the ability to use standard tools. The instructions were right on. The tail light wiring kit also was easy and works great. Shipping was fast and delivery arrived as indicated. I will continue to do business with you.

Called my local trailer and flat tow company in my area and they quoted me $179.00 for the harness alone. I also got a quote for the install which was $350.00 and the total of $529.00. Called Etrailer and purchased the Hopkins harness that was on sale and paid total of less than $82.00. It took me around 2 hours to install with wire loom protection. Etrailer has always had excellent customer service. Big thanks to Brandon for all his help.

Relatively easy to install, worst part was routing the wiring to the front of the jeep. The rest was plug and play. I also replaced the flat four way plug with a six pin round.

Took a bit to get to the rear lights on the wrx - trim pieces etc. But once there the instructions were easy to follow and the lights work great!

I returned this item in favor of the Curt Bronco flat tow light kit. The Curt kit is far superior to the Blue Ox kit. The Curt kit is totally plug and play no diodes to deal with. I would have bought the Curt kit from you if you sold it. You would be better served with the Curt kit.

Bought to install on vehicle to be flat towed behind motorhome. Installed temporarily on 2016 Ford Edge with LED tail lights by lying wires on ground. When connected to tow vehicle turn and brake lights are fine but running lights only lit side markers not actual rear lights that normally light when Edge controls them. Probably not legal. Must return. Photos show normal operation and kit operation.

Order was processed and shipped quickly. Install was a breeze thanks to website video.. Great experience.

The install on my Ford Maverick is clean and functional, so this is more of a customer service review... excellent customer service! During the 4-day towing set-up install, the forecast was for freezing temps and my rig was not winterized. I called in mid panic and the motorhome was moved indoors. A few months after using the tow set-up, a minor problem developed. I called and the CSR apologized and said, I can see how that might be frustrating, and a replacement cable (slightly longer) was sent free of charge.

The installation ins ructions and video were very helpful. The wiring kit worked perfectly.

Roadsters product worked well. I did not remove the lower dash part, and just did extreme yoga to remove and install the fuse bypass. This was the worst part. I can't believe that Honda put this fuse block in such a difficult to access location. The rest was simple. Installing the small connectors was a trick, (I also didn't use the fuse connector) but I finally got the connections in the fuse block. Drilled the hole from the outside and installed the switch. The location could have been lower and more to the left as there was a thicket portion of the dash on the back that prevented the lock nut from seating, but the switch is tight and works well. This is absolutely the way to go instead of pulling a fuse on my 2014 Honda CRV!

Great wiring kit. Everything fit and worked perfectly on my 2013 F-150

Big job, completed in 4 hours by myself. Not bad for a person 81 years old. Once again great instructions.

This product seems to be of good quality and was delivered quickly. It will not work for my application. Check you tail lights closely, my 2014 ram has LED tail lights and I am unable to find a location that will allow me to install these. The non LED tail lamps are no problem.

Product was easy to install, and worked as advertised.
