Shane: Hi I'm Shane with etrailer.com. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Road master 68 inch coiled safety cables for your flat tow set up on your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee.This is going to be one of the five main components for a flat tow set up. These are going to be a secondary safety device in case your tow bar fails. The other four are going to be your tow bar, which is going to give you that solid connection point between your RV and your base plate on your towed vehicle or on your Jeep Grand Cherokee.Your wiring, which is going to allow your Jeep Grand Cherokee to receive light functions from your RV, so not only are you safe while you're flat towing your vehicle, but other drivers are safe because they're going to know what you're doing, whether you're braking, making a turn or driving at night.Braking system, which is going to be required in any vehicle that is flat towed. It's going to mount inside the vehicle and it's going to allow the Jeep Grand Cherokee to not only slow but stop itself so we're not overly 00:00:53 relying on the RV to slow and stop both vehicles.And then your base plate. Your base plate is going to attach to the chassis of the vehicle and it's going to give you a solid connection point for your tow bar.Now to go over a few more finer details on our safety cables.
Again these are going to be 68 or these are going to spread out to up 68 inches. We're going to have a quick link at one end. You can lock it right onto your tow bar or I'm sorry your hitch on your RV.Lock it into place. And you can just leave them connected. Once you disconnect this side from your vehicle, you hook it on to the other side and you can leave them connected on your RV if you want to.What we see is a lot of times because they're steel cables, if they're not coated they tend to rust.
The good thing about these, these are going to have a nice thick vinyl coating. So we're not going to have to worry about the weather corroding that steel cable over time.It's going to hold up really, really well. On this end, this is going to make an easy quick connection and disconnection from our base plate on our towed vehicle. We're going to have a locking tab here for a hook. It's going to be spring loaded.So we simply you know stick it over and it's going to lock into place right onto our safety chain loops.
One thing I do want to mention is when ordering safety cables you want to make sure that you're going to have enough room or you have enough length between your base plate and between the hitch on your RV.Depending on which tow bar you have some of them the arms may extend out a little bit longer. So you just want to make sure your cables are going to be long enough so that when you're turning corners and stuff like that you're not overstretching this cable.Again I'm Shane with etrailer.com. I hope this video's helped you whether you're still deciding or installing the Road master 68 inch safety cables on your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Love these coils has a hook up and don't drag the ground and when I added him with the bigger hooks made a quick and easy to attach and detach and since a coil they are pretty much roll back up easy to pick up and throw in store in the back of the vehicle 634121
I have never been involved with this type of application prior in my life until now. I received the shipment as scheduled. Everything I ordered came to me within a two days of each other. The packing of the equipment was well conducted. The instructions were well received and clearly understood. The modification instruction for my vehicle, for this install was appreciated due to I did not want anymore alterations than necessary. The equipment easily went together as planned which was greatly appreciate due to the fact I was installing this in -20 degree weather. After the install it I hooked up my truck to a Uhaul truck and pulled it over 1200 miles from Wisconsin to Texas and found the reliability to be as stated by the manufacturer. I would never hesitate to use it again or purchase similar products from etrailer. 721057
Only thing is, I wish these cables came with hooks on both ends. 227358

Working great. Well made. 858375
Good product, well represented and timely service/shipping. The "spring tension" keeps cable from dragging and makes storage simple. 857230

Product is working well. Only suggestion would be have same hooks on both ends. Having to manage the one end is a little challenging, both ends should have clips. 854750

Installed on 2019 Jeep Trailhawk for Duo brake system so it was part of the completing that process that included the DUO. Installed Roadmaster Direct Connect base plate, Duo Brake systems to be used with Falcon All Terrain- The system has been great so far after one year in service. The total install for everything probably took me 25-30 hours, working on it over several days. Removal of brand Jeep quarter panel and front end grill was a little nerve wreaking, but easy install on tow plates. The brake and electrical work used the other 60% of the time on this job. I would consider myself to have intermediate skills for automotive repair activity. The slicing of the various electrical brake light system wires was a little challenging to due access in the front end and rear brake light housing. The video's from etrailer.com was very helpful in completing the process from start to finish ( although I had to watch it a number of times as I completed each portion of the install) Note - The jeep brake light wiring will be connected to a plug in receptacle installed at the front of the jeep. Where the coil wire from the RV that plugs into this installed receptacle can become loose from plugging /unpluging the coil wire. The pins can be pushed back thru that rubber housing easily if extreme caution isn't used each time and over time can loose contact with the coil connector. They should improve the plastic sheath that covers the backside of the pins in that receptacle so they cannot be pushed thru the back side. 849866
I couldn't be happier with my Roadmaster. The ease of hooking up and disconnecting, the sturdiness of the device. We are 3/4 timers in the RV and notice NO wear and tear. Fantastic! Worth every penny! 849708

work exactly as describe. good quality product. 830875
Was easy to install and use . We have used them several time in the last year . 829131
I have used these constantly this past year and am well pleased. Mine have become a little "dinged up" so I will look to replace them, but only for cosmetic reasons. 824647
Works great. 817443
Good enough 809544
Excellent product. The quality and design is great. I highly recommend the Hopkins wiring components to match the Falcon2 tower, it is so simple to connect. 809526
