Question:

I have a jeep cherokee with a roadmaster base plate 52-1451-5. Does the Falcon 2 towbar come with everything needed to connect to the baseplate?

Expert Reply:

The Roadmaster Falcon 2 tow bar, part # RM-525 will attach to the # RM-521451-5 base plate kit right out of the box. The # RM-521451-5 base plates are a fit for Trailhawk, Trailhawk Elite and Overland models only without grille shutters. The vehicle must have tow hooks. If you have a Latitude, Latitude Plus, Limited or North model, use # RM-521452-5.

In addition to the base plates and the tow bar, you'll also need safety cables, like # RM-643, a taillight wiring harness like # RM-15267, a supplemental braking system like the Blue Ox # BLU37TR and possibly a high/low adapter if the installed base plate height (20-1/4 inches, assuming stock ride height and tire size) has more than a +/- 3 inch height difference compared to the receiver height of the motorhome, you'll need a high/low adapter to bring it within 3 inches. I'll link you to our selection of high/low adapters. You'll also need a # RM-156-25 charge line kit to keep the battery on the Cherokee topped off.
