  • Are There D-Ring Adapters that Work with etrailer brand Tow Bars
    Hey Kenneth,the etrailer tow bars do not have a d-ring adapter solution. We do carry the Adapter for Extended D-Ring Bumper Mounts to Roadmaster Tow Bars - 1" Thick, # RM65FR and # RM-035-1 but these require use of Roadmaster tow bar like the part # RM-520.

  • Will Blue Ox Off-Road Bumper Adapters Fit Smittybilt XRC Gen 2 Bumper on 2009 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon
    Hey Steven! Thanks for the pictures and measurements. It looks like those are 1" wide with a 7/8" hole so the Blue Ox Off-Road Bumper Adapters # BX88357 will fit. The one thing you need to do is make sure that bumper is rated for flat towing. It may be a heavy duty bumper but that doesn't always mean it can be used to tow your vehicle. Do you have the rest of the parts you need for flat towing aside from the tow bar?

  • Part Needed to Connect Roadmaster Tow Bar to 2023 Ford Bronco Badland
    Hey Sean, since we know the 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands has D-rings that are 1 inch thick and that you also have a Roadmaster tow bar the correct base plate kit solution is the Roadmaster part # RM65FR. For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that...

  • Which Base Plate Kit Adapter Works with Ford Bronco Badlands Winch Mount
    Hey Jordan, since your D-rings are 1 inch thick the correct D-ring adapter would actually be the part # RM65FR which would require using a Roadmaster tow bar like the # RM-520. The Curt D-ring adapter you mentioned is a lot wider than that so it would not be what you are looking for.

  • Is Part Number RM65FR The Same as Roadmaster 0356-G2 D-Ring Adapter
    The Roadmaster # RM65FR is compatible with a Roadmaster tow bar, and is the same part as the Roadmaster 035-G2. It's the same exact part, it just uses our part number. The D-Ring adapter is designed for extra clearance for SmittyBilt Gen 2 bumpers, but you'll want to sure that the bumper is rated for the weight of your vehicle. I've linked to a video showing the adapters being installed.

  • Parts Needed For Flat Towing a 2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ With Smittybilt Front Bumper 76800
    I reached out to Smittybilt and they informed me the tabs on your bumper can be used for flat towing your 2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ. To do this you will simply add the D-Ring Adapter # RM65FR to the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-676. Do note the tow bar needs to stay within 3" of level from your receiver to the front of your Jeep. Here is a list of High-Low adapters you may need if your connection points are not within 3" of each other. 4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-4 6" Rise/Drop...

  • Recommended Tow Bar Compatible With Roadmaster D-Ring Adapter
    The Adapter for Extended D-Ring Bumper Mounts to Roadmaster Tow Bars # RM65FR is only compatible with Roadmaster tow bars like the Falcon 2 # RM-520. There are no D-ring adapters available for the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR. The Falcon 2 would work well for your application, and would also require safety cables like # RM-643 since they are not included. Also, make sure you verify that your bumper is rated for flat towing. Even though you have D-ring attachments, it is possible...

  • Compatibility of Roadmaster RM65FR D-Ring Adapter for Aftermarket Bumper on 2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ
    The Roadmaster # RM65FR is compatible if the tabs your D-rings attach to are 1 inch thick. The adapter would simply replace the existing ends on your Falcon 2 tow bar. Remove the existing ends, and the adapter slips over the end of the bar and is secured with the included pin. There's one caution you'll need to know about, though. You'll need to make sure that the aftermarket bumper you have is rated for towing the vehicle. Not all bumpers are so rated, so for safety's sake you'll want...

  • 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. This would work great with any of their coupler mounted base plate kits like the # RM-520.

  • D-Ring Adapter for Flat Towing Jeep Gladiator with Rugged Ridge Arcus Bumper
    If the width of the d-rings on your bumper is 1 inch you'd need the part # RM-035-1 unless you had a Smittybilt bumper that requires the extended part # RM65FR. For a tow vehicle that has air brakes the Air Force One part # SM99243 is the best option still.

    The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX1126 for 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited can not be installed simultaneously with a Curt, # 31432 or similar front mount trailer hitch receiver as they each occupy the same space beneath the front of the Jeep.
