Question:
Can the Roadmadter Falcon 2 tow bar be safely used without the crossbar?
asked by: Donnie G
Expert Reply:
Since the only base plate kit available for your 2007 Mazda MX-5 Miata is the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit # 52728-1 you will need to use the crossbar included with the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520.
To complete your flat towing setup you will also need safety cables, wiring, and a supplemental braking system. If you have not already purchased them I recommend the following:
Safety Cables: RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables - 6,000 lbs # RM-643
Wiring: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System: Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR
You will also more than likely need a high-low adapter to level your tow bar to your tow vehicle so I have included a link to a helpful article that goes over how to measure for the correct adapter and a link to all of our high low adapters for you to take a look at.
It is always a good idea to check the recreational towing section of your vehicles owner's manual for any flat towing restrictions, and for any special steps required to make your vehicle ready to be flat towed.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
