Complete Towing Setup For A 2011 Honda CR-V  

Question:

I have a 2011 Honda CRV with Automatic transmission. I would like to tow it behind our 2006 Alfa DP which has a 10,000 lb hitch and previous owner used a Roadmaster system for his Jeep. I think these are the parts I would need to tow the Honda: Falcon All Terrain tow bar RM-522 Roadmaster base plate for 2011 Honda CRV RM-521559-5 Roadmaster Even Brake. RM-9400 although earliest I can get this in May 25 or Brake Buddy 3 HM39524 is this an adequate substitute for the Even Brake? Do you concur?

Helpful Expert Reply:

Yes, the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39524 will work great in place of the Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Supplemental Braking System # RM-9400.

If you plan on flat towing your 2011 Honda CR-V often, I recommend installing a permanent system like the Roadmaster BrakeMaster System w BrakeAway for RVs w Air or Air Over Hydraulic Brakes # RM-9160. This is a one time install system that makes connecting and disconnecting your toad much easier and faster.

If you are interested in # RM-9160, you're also going to need the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751449 & the RoadMaster BrakeMaster Custom Seat Adapter # RM-88196.

Along with the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-522, and the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521559-5, you're also going to need:

-The Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267.

-The Curt High-Low Adapter for Tow Bars # C59KR, & the Curt Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables with S-Hooks # C80176.

You'll want to verify first before you choose a high-low adapter, the correct rise and drop needed. I have attached an FAQ detailing how you can determine this.
