Note: This adapter is designed to flat tow a vehicle only. Do not use to tow a trailer. When using with a hitch-mounted accessory, such as a bike rack or cargo carrier, the tongue weight of your hitch will be reduced by at least 50 percent.
Most tow systems require some sort of hitch accessory to either raise or lower the tow bar to an appropriate level. The "Safe Zone" for a motor-home-mounted tow bar ranges from 3" above level to 3" below. Car-mounted models must be absolutely level. This high-low adapter can provide you with the necessary drop or desired rise to achieve a level tow bar setup.

I have to give it a 5 star being it's pretty simple. The front of my truck is 7" higher than my RV hitch. Truck with my golf cart in the back put me at just over 5000lbs that's why I jumped to the 10,000lb. A massive well built extremely strong looking adapter. The reason I went with a well known name brand is because pulling a pickup truck you have to much at risk and I wanted to be sure this was not going to be the weak link. I'm sure I could drive off a 500' cliff and when the wreckage is cleaned up someone can still use this adapter. It is quiet heavy but so is all the towing parts.

The product solved my problem by lowering the attach height on my motorhome making it level with that on the vehicle being towed.
Comments
I feel that the design limit for the torque this attachment imparts on the motorhome trailer hitch exceeds the design limit of the motorhome hitch. A few hard stops seem to have bent the motorhome hitch a little. I am towing a 4k lb vehicle with a 2015 Winnebago Vista.
Walter - 05/21/2017Thanks for the feedback. It is always that the lowest rated component of the towing system be the determining factor for any towing situation. I looked on-line and it looks like your 2015 Winnebago Vista could have been equipped with a hitch rated for up to 5K from the factory. Please confirm that the hitch is rated appropriately for the vehicle you are towing. Additionally a supplemental braking system like the Roadmaster Even Brake # RM-9400 is recommended. If you do have a braking system it may need some adjustments for more effective braking of your toad. I have also included a link to one of our help articles that explains all the individual components of a flat towing system for your reference.

Just used it this past weekend for first time. It worked great! No problems whatsoever. Drove three hours to the destination and three hours back. Definitely will continue to use. I needed a hitch that was leveled with my tow bars and this was perfect. I would highly recommend etrailer for their excellent products.

This has worked well. Seems well built\sturdy. I needed it to match the bumper height of my lifted Jeep tow bar to my truck hitch. My truck hitch with my camper on was too low. The Jeep came up over the towbar and rear ended my camper after braking for a dip. This hitch makes the truck hitch the same height as the Jeep tow bar connection

I use this product as a means of lowering my motorcycle rack on the rear of my Class A motor home, thereby making the bike somewhat easier to get off the rack. So far I have no complaints or criticisms, the 8" hi-lo adaptor does precisely what I wanted it to do.
Comments
Be aware that using an extender like the # RM-048-8 will lower the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50 percent. Because the load has been moved further away from the receiver, more leverage is being applied to the hitch.

Great quick service right on time as etrailer said it would arrive. Incredibly strong construction I am sure this adapter will not break like my previous one from another company. Finish is excellent not surel it is power costed or painted but it looks very durable and a nice glossy black. I am using it for a 60”x35” aluminum cart that I carry items on, hay bales, deer, furniture etc. this is with my truck. Very pleased! Recommend highly. Oh, and the 8” rise or drop is great. I use it as a rise for more ground clearance for my cart

I uploaded two photos one with a 4 inch drop then when the 8 inch drop showed up and love much it leveled out my toad. The shank that goes into the receiver is a solid metal bar not a hollow one I removed. The drop is very well made and it puts my toad into the safe zone for towing.

Just what I needed - Bought a gently used Blue-Ox tow-bar to pull a recently acquired 1998 Honda Honda CRV with my 2005 Jayco Grayhawk. After installing the CRV baseplate (purchased from etrailer, another great buy, installed myself in about 45 minutes) the vertical alignment of the base plate connections and the RV's receiver hitch was 9-inches off. I found this hitch adapter, it arrived within a few days of ordering even when I ordered it less than a week before Christmas. A test tow around the neighborhood proved all worked and aligned great. etrailer team followed up, provided info on shipping status, all-in-all an excellent transaction.

The perfect solution to keep my blue ox tow bar parallel with the ground, that is, at or above the level of my toad vehicle's mounting point (2012 Jeep Rubicon with 2.5" lift and 35's).

- High/Low Hitch Adapter to Keep Nighthawk Tow Bar RM-677 Level for Best OperationRoadmaster 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...
view full answer... - How to Determine Which High/Low Flat Towing Hitch Adapter Is NeededSo what you'll need to do is determine the receiver height of the motorhome, measure from ground to the center of the hitch pin hole. Then, on the vehicle being towed, measure from the ground to the center of the base plate. If the height of the hitch and the base plate has a difference more than 3 inches, you'll want to use an adapter to bring it within that range. I'll link to an article that explains how to take the measurement, as well as to our selection of high/low adapters.
view full answer... - Anti-Rattle Recommendation for Use with High-Low Adapter While Flat TowingYou definitely can use 2 anti-rattle devices when flat towing with the Roadmaster High-Low Adapter # RM-048-8. I recommend using 2 of the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 because it was made specifically for this type of application and is used to essentially clamp down on the shank of the adapter as well as the shank of the tow bar. I have attached a review videos of the Quiet Hitch for you to check out.

The only thing to keep in mind is that you will be cutting the hitch weight capacity in half. Since you have 130 pounds of bike weight and 60 pounds of weight from the Backstage, you will have a total of 190 pounds to accommodate on the hitch. Please note that the Rocky Mount Backstage is only rated for 60 pounds per-bike....

- Hitch Adapter Recommendation For Flat TowingWe do carry adapter bars for the very reason you are experiencing. Many tow systems require an adapter to make the tow bar more level. Normally the safe zone for towing a vehicle is either 3 inches above or 3 inches below. You want to make sure your towed vehicle is absolutely level for safe towing. I recommend the Roadmaster High-Low Adapter for Tow Bars, part # RM-048-8. It has a weight capacity of 10,000 lbs, fits 2 inch by 2 inch receivers, and has a rise/drop of 8 inches. It measures...

- Towing a Trailer with a Coupler that is Higher than the Trailer Hitch on a Jeep WranglerAll you need is a ball mount that allows you to tow the trailer level. You can measure for the amount of rise needed to select the correct model. A ball mount with rise is needed when the trailer coupler is higher than the hitch receiver on the vehicle. Have the trailer and the Jeep Wrangler parked on level ground. Disconnect the trailer from the Jeep. Measure from the ground to the top of the hitch receiver opening. Then use the trailer jack to make the trailer level and measure from...
view full answer... - High Low Adapter for 2014 Winnebago Via 25p Towing Honda FitYou would need around a 9 inch drop from a high low adapter for your tow bar to sit level. Since your RV manual states that you can't use more than a 4 inch drop (which is an odd requirement) you should find out if that's for ball mounts or if that's for high low adapters as well. If it's just for ball mounts you could use a # RM-048-8 which would be within an inch of level and would be close enough.
view full answer... - Can the Roadmaster High-Low Adapter Be Used with Kuat Bike Rack for Rear Hatch ClearanceThe Roadmaster High-Low Adapter # RM-048-8 can be used with a bike rack. However, when using with a hitch-mounted accessory, such as a bike rack or cargo carrier, the tongue weight of your hitch will be reduced by at least 50 percent. For example, if your vehicle's trailer hitch has a tongue weight rating of 350 pounds, when using the high-low adapter, the hitch can only handle 175 pounds of tongue weight. This reduced tongue weight includes both the weight of the rack and the weight...

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.

Please keep in mind the use of any adapter will cut the tongue weight rating of the hitch by 50%. So the 54 lb weight of the rack and the bikes cannot exceed half of the weight rating of your hitch. This adapter is designed for a 2" hitch. You will also need a locking hitch pin part # TR63254...

It has a 8 inch rise or drop which will either raise or lower the tow bar connection of your pickup to the RV.

view full answer... - Can High/Low Hitch Adapter Be Used with Yakima Four Timer Hitch Bike RackHitch adapters like Roadmaster high/low adapter # RM-048-8, which provides 8-inches of rise or drop, will give you more clearance but all such adapters also cost you half of your hitch's rated capacity. The loss of hitch capacity from use of an adapter results from the longer distance between the hitch tube and the actual load. Extending that distance applies more leverage on the hitch tube and this results in the hitch being able to handle only half as much weight. If the combined weight...

The trouble with adapters is that they have the unavoidable side-effect of cutting your hitch's capacity by 50-percent. This is a result of the change in geometry and leverage that occurs from adding in the adapter. Let's say your hitch's safety sticker indicates a tongue weight (TW) capacity of 500-lbs. If you were to use an adapter you'd end up with a halved...

For a bike rack (if you don't have one), the Saris SuperClamp EX part # SA4025F would be an excellent choice as it has the highest rise built into the shank at 5 inches and since it's a platform rack it holds the bikes perfectly level which also helps with...

But it sound like a ball mount with the proper rise is the ideal solution. The ball mount we have with the most rise is # AMSC12. It has 10-3/4 inches rise.
