Hey there, CR-V owners. Today, we're going to be taking a look at Roadmaster's Falcon All-Terrain Non-Binding Tow Bars. Your tow bar is what connects your vehicle to your motor home to allow you to pull it behind you. And with these tow bars, once you get to your campsite if you need to run up and get some charcoal for the grill or anything it's easy to disconnect it and hop on the road real fast. Whereas a tow dolly, or something else, takes a little bit more time to get situated. You don't have to worry about this, and you can leave your RV back at the campsite.For a full flat tow setup, you're going to want to equip your CR-V with the baseplate, and this is the component that our tow bars are going to connect to.

Speaker 1: Today in our 2012 Honda CRV, we're gonna be installing Blue Ox's Alpha Tow Bar, part number BX7365.These tow bars is gonna be a great way to connect your motor home to your vehicle. It's gonna be the interface that goes from your hitch to your base plate, and it's gonna provide you with everything that you need to get it hooked up.What's nice about these tow bars is that they have a non-binding lever. So this lever, which is nicer than some that just have little buttons or other things, you get that extra leverage, so if you're parked on uneven pavement when you're trying to unhook your motor home, the arms can bind up and be tight and difficult to get out of the pins. You press down on this lever, it'll release the arm and allow you to get some movement into it, making it easier to disconnect.The tow bars are also self-aligning, so once you've made your connection, and you take off in your motor home, the arms will extend out and lock into position, keeping your vehicle straight, and directly behind your motor home.The connection point on these tow bars will hook up to any Blue Ox base plate And you can purchase adapters here at etrailer.com to hook it up to a Road Master or Demco base plate.To help ensure long lasting, smooth sliding tow bars, there's a rubber boot that goes over it. This'll keep out any dust or debris and moisture that you get in there, and cause it to bind up.Now when you're done with your tow bars, you can simply fold them up. Bring it up to the top till the pin goes between in the slotted section here.

Today on this 2001 Honda CR-V we are going to be installing Roadmaster Base Plate Kit part number 1528-3. First thing we need to do is come underneath and locate front tie down plates on both the drivers and the passengers sides of the vehicle. The other thing that we are going to need located on the vehicle are the existing bolts that are mounting into the sub frame, follow rearward on the vehicle and we want to locate the tubular sway bar here directly behind that there are two bolts. We are going to be using the one that is center most on the vehicle as our attaching point to the sub frame, and we are going to do that on both the drivers and passengers sides of the vehicle, so we are going to want to remove this inboard side bolt. And we will just set those bolts off to the side for a minute; we are going to be reusing those bolts once we get our base plate attached.
