Video Transcript for Installing the RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables on your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee

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.

  • Recommended Flat Towing Parts for a 2023 GMC Canyon
    No, the tow hooks come off no matter what brand of base plate you use. This is extremely common amongst all trucks with flat towing set ups. That's a solid anchor point and attaching a base plate there hides it extremely well. You're going to want to stay away from the AT4X if you goal is to flat tow a 2023 GMC Canyon. None of the base plates work with that model. They make these trucks right next to our shop and the front ends on them look amazing but the base plates aren't compatible....

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with Aftermarket Bumper that Has D-rings
    Flat towing a vehicle such as a Jeep Wrangler behind a Class C motorhome such as the Dynamax Force 37BH HD will require a few items including the tow bar and braking system. The Blue Ox Patriot braking system # BLU37TR that you referenced is a very good selection. I linked overview articles on flat towing that cover each of the items needed. These are a good starting point. But first I suggest you check with the bumper maker to confirm it is rated for towing. Not all aftermarket bumpers...

  • Why Does The Negative Battery Cable Need To Be Removed To Flat Tow A 2021 Chevy Spark Manual
    The reasoning behind removing the negative cable from your 2021 Chevy Spark's battery isn't a charging/maintaining battery level issue. Chevy has you do this to disable certain functions of your vehicle to allow it to be safely flat towed. As time goes on cars are getting progressively more and more computerized and by not following the manufacturer's required steps, such as removing the negative battery cable, could potentially harm these components. To make disconnecting the battery as...

  • Flat Towing Setup For 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport with Rugged Ridge XHD Front Bumper D Rings
    Hey Harley, I can help you out with that! Thanks for the info on your off-road bumper with D-rings; my research tells me it's likely the 3/4" d rings which would work with these adapters # RM-035 which act as a base plate when used on the bumper. For a tow bar, a good compatible option is Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs # RM-520. You'll want to stick with Roadmaster brand for compatibility with the adapter. You'll also need safety cables like # RM-643. For...

    Hey Kathryn, what specifically on the Blue Ox Alpha are you needing to replace? Unlike Roadmaster they don't have as many replacement parts but you can contact them about getting yours rebuilt but that's just not something we can help with. For a Blue Ox base plate kit the correct for your 2007 Jeep Liberty would be the part # BX1122. For a set of magnetic tow lights you could use the part # TL21RK. For coiled safety cables part # RM-643 would work great. And finally, most states...

    Yes, the Chevrolet HHR SS is flat-towable with all four wheels down.

There may also be a few other smaller components that are needed depending on options the vehicle is equipped with. For a tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar part # RM-520.

    Everything I have found on the 2015 Chevy Sonics with automatic transmissions is that they are flat-towable as-is. First you would need to start with a base plate kit. For that you would want the part # RM-523173-5 which is a confirmed fit. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow...

For extended towing (more than eight hours in one day) you will need to remove the 20 amp accessory power socket and 7.5 amp ACC fuses. These fuses are located in the interior fuse box.
