Best Subaru XV Crosstrek Safety Cables

The safety cables have worked perfectly. The fact that they self coil makes them stay out of the way when installed and make them easy to store.

Well, this is my 3rd review. These safety cables were part of my flat tow kit, all bought through etrailer. As I have said before, etrailer provides video installation guides that save you on Installations. Also their staff can help too. I have bought other items in the past and each self installation has saved a considerable sum of money overtime. You can't go wrong with etrailer

I installed the safety cables and they appear to be a good quality product.

What design criteria did you use for these safety cables purposely built for tow bar applications. The length should've been based on the tow bar sliding tube being fully extended. the 64 inch safety cables are too long for the Nighthawk 10,000lb off-road I'm using--by about 10-11 inches. So, I have to "loop" the excess and tie it with a small plastic tie. I've flat towed about 13,000 miles at this point and on our last trip, one of my plastic ties broke and one of my safety cables was scraping the road and was damaged. I need cables that are 54 inches and will hang well above the ground with just a little slack.

Very easy to install very straightforward and solid. Only thing I suggest is Lock tight just gotta get the wiring in now and take a trip. Thanks Sara etrailer.

I have been using "Coil Cables" for over 30 years. I always tell people about them and suggest over any chain set out there. The coil keeps the cables from dragging the ground and getting chewed up by the road. I suggest the use of 1/2 inch, Grade 8 hardware to attach to your trailer. If you do not have Grade 8 hardware then jump into your car and go get some. Nothing less is sufficient for the task. Do not sell yourself short on attachments. Remember this rule: Your wife and children may be coming from the other direction. Make sure you are safe. etrailer, my thoughts about this company are simple. Great people and great products. In the past I have contacted the Customer Service group twice. Yes only twice in 10+ years of business. My questions and issues were solved fast and we were all happy. In the picture, Get real when you build a Grill.

Pricing was reasonable, shipping was quick. Now to put on my trailer.

They do the job! Very well made!

Love these cables. First, using coiled cables avoids adjusting chains so they don't drag on the highway. Second, the S hooks are MUCH easier to attach and remove from the hitch on my RAV4. Previously had coiled cables with clevis hooks. They convinced me to stick with coiled cables, but the heavier hooks were harder to manage on my RAV4.

Cannot beat the product quality, price and service.
