Video Transcript for Roadmaster Tow Bar Cover Review
Hello neighbors. It's Brad here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at the Roadmaster RV Tow Bar Cover. Now, this is designed to cover up your tow bar when you leave it on the back of your RV. And that's kind of nice because, tow bars aren't exactly the lightest things. And to take them on and off each time that you're not using them can be cumbersome.
And then you have to store them. Well, you can actually leave this on the back of your RV. And this is gonna protect it from the elements. It's made from heavy duty, Marine grade vinyl. And that also means that it's actually safe to run through car washes.
So, if it can hold up to a car wash, it's gonna have no problem holding up to rain, snow or any of the other elements. Now, not only is this gonna protect your tow bar from the elements, but I think another really nice benefit of this is being able to contain everything. You've probably noticed with the tow bars, once you're not really hooked up, you have your safety cables, your umbilicals and just sometimes a lot of accessories kind of floating around. And you gotta strap them down. Or find ways to where they're not dragging on the ground.
Well, this is a nice, clean, easy way to do that. And you don't have to worry about strapping 'em all in. You can simply slide this on. And it has a nice clip to kind of cinch this up, to keep it nice and tight. So if you are driving your RV around without the tow vehicle behind it, I think this is a really nice addition.
And I would say I'd highly recommend it. Just not only for that weather protection, but also just keeping everything clean. You don't have to worry about damaging your stuff, dragging along the road. And it's gonna look really nice doing it. Now you may see that the Roadmaster label here is printed very nicely and it looks really good. And it is designed to work with Roadmaster tow bars and a good majority of their tow bars. But, as you'll see here, it's also able to be used with a variety of different tow bars. So, right now we have our etrailer SD. And this works perfectly fine as well. Now, you can see this actually has a storage for the umbilical here. But we still have this dangling down. And I've also put our safety cables on the actual latches here. So, it does kind of do a pretty good job of keeping everything together. But that cover really just makes sure that this is all gonna hold it tight together. And again, you don't have to worry about this coming loose and dragging along the highway. So tow bars really do hold up the test of time. But sometimes your moving parts, like your shaft here, if they do start to get build up, this is really where you're gonna see it kind of be hard to be able to use your tow bar when you're ready. It can kind of corrode up, making all of the operations just a little bit tougher. And really shorten the lifespan of your tow bar. So, being able to cover this up and protect it is not only gonna make it look good and keep all of these in good shape, anything that's dragging. But it's also gonna maintain the lifespan of your tow bar..

Protect your Roadmaster tow bar from the elements while it's stored on the back of your RV with this vinyl cover. Blocks out water and grime to extend the life your tow bar and keep it working smoothly.by: KReid04/21/2023
Love the fact that I can put my specific vehicle information in and it tells me everything I need to set it up as a tow vehicle behind my motorhome.
Great communication all along the process from ordering to delivery. I even had to return items and very quick, efficient return response.
Excellent company! Excellent customer service! Excellent products!
by: Lauri07/12/2023
We have a 45 ft RV that has this at the back and we pull our Jeep Grand Cherokee Trail hawk with our bikes on the back of the Jeep. We hook up in about 7 minutes and unhook, at our destination, in about 2 minutes. Super easy and reliable.
by: 10/13/2023
Install went great once I got the bumper cover off. That was a major undertaking though. Be sure to put plenty of painters tape on everything, painted seams, headlights, etc before starting that piece. Other wise, the etrailer videos made the process go more smoothly. Thank you for that!
by: Scott 05/13/2024
This cover is roomier and better assembled than the one I had for my Blue Ox tow bar!
by: Brett 03/05/2024
Perfect replacement cover. Still don't understand with the price of a new tow bar, why a cover would not come with it.
by: Gary 05/13/2024
As usual, the etrailer.com team has done a great job of making it easy to buy compatible products.
by: Leonard 02/05/2024
Good heavyweight quality. Fit my NightHawk tow bar perfectly, even with all wires and cables covered. Looks great installed.

My order came in fast and everything was. Complete that I ordered. Thanks Etrailer!!!
by: Ron03/15/2024
Ordering with Rochelle went very easy, she guided us through all the items needed to flag tow and delivery was quick. One item was back ordered but they kept up with notifications. We have ordered in the past and will do so again
by: Seth09/20/2023
Excellent servyand delivery. Product came when promised. Everything was included and it took no time to install I love the way the cables run through the tow bar for a super clean look.
by: Tom11/30/2023
etrailer has an excellent web site which is very informative with product descriptions and videos. Cassandra who took my order was courteous, very knowlegable and professional. I placed my order for a tow package on Tueday, it was shipped from Missouri that same day and was delivered on Thursday in Florida.

The Roadmaster cover is good quality and easy to use. Recommend this if you want to protect your towing equipment.
by: Greg07/02/2023
VERY disappointed. Package arrived and soaked through and dripping the tow bar cleaner I ordered. The tow bar cover I ordered was also soaked. I'm nit on site or I would provide pictures. I am working with my neighbor to get pictures. I've ordered quite a few items from you and have never had a bad experience. This looks like it's on USPS. They screwed up the shipping by sending pkg from MO ti upstate NYand the routed back FL. I would strongly recommend thst you stop uding them for shipping. They're unreliable and rarely deliver on schedule. Not good for your business reputation.
Thank you in advance

Oh my! That is quite a mess. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
by: Ronald05/11/2024
It is just a lowly tow bar cover. But it is a great one. Slides easily over the bar and covers all parts well and the stretchy snap buckle closure is a great feature, too. It keeps the cover in place and the buckle is easy to close and open. I had bought a no-name cover before on Amazon which claimed to fit this tow-bar. Not. Very tight and not covering the entire bar. Would have ripped at the seams, quickly. So, often times, it pays to spend a little extra.
by: Edward04/29/2024
I purchased a Nigthhawk towbar and the recommended towbar cover, 055-3. All the pictures on the etrailer website and reviews depict a cover that entirely covers the towbar. The cover I received covers about three-quarters of the towbar.
by: Jeffrey11/10/2023
Fast shipping. Cover is a snug fit on our Nighthawk tow bar.
by: Tom F09/10/2023
This fits the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 10,500 lbs.
by: Vernon08/16/2023
Cover is great because it keeps all the safety cables and electrical cables from vibrating loose and dragging on the ground when the tow bar is not in use.
by: Brian 10/13/2023
It’s really good to keep the dirt and debris from the tow bar and the electric connections.
by: Gustav05/10/2024
OME product, prompt delivery, good price and customer service

The Roadmaster Base Plate and All Terrain Direct Connect Tow Bar worked perfect for my 6-Speed Subaru CrossTrek. Looking forward to exploring and traveling later this spring.

view full answer... - Flat Towing 1997 Jeep Wrangler Automatic Yes, the Jeep Wrangler (1997-2021) is the most popular flat tow vehicle among RVers. Thanks to its modest size, the Wrangler is a great option to pull behind both Class A and Class C motorhomes. The Wrangler has no speed or distance restrictions when being flat towed. Plus, both manual and automatic transmission models can be safely towed. First with the base plates, I suggest the Roadmaster EZ5, # RM-521424-5 if you have either a U-channel bumper or a double tube bumper. If you have...

The Nighthawk and Stay-In-Play DUO are both great solutions that are confirmed fits for your 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Be sure to note that to be compatible with the 6-pin connector on...

This is also a proportional system but it remains installed on your C-Max and is much quicker...
