  • Tow Bar Recommendation for the 1995 Suzuki Sidekick
  • If your 1995 Suzuki Sidekick has RoadMaster, EZ, XL, or standard base plates installed on it then the RoadMaster Tracker Tow Bar - 5,000 lbs, item # RM-020, will work directly with the base plates on the vehicle. Most of the RoadMaster tow bars will work with these base plates (see link). To ease installation and removal of the tow bar you will need the Roadmaster Tow Bar Quick Disconnect Kit, item # RM-201. This will allow you to remove that towbar and cross bar easily and also allows...

  • Will Strapless Bikini Top B5257015 Work to Replace a Convertible Top on a 1993 Suzuki Sidekick
  • The Bestop strapless bikini top # B5257015 does not have a rear window, as it is intended for open-air driving applications. It is custom fit for the 1993 Suzuki Sidekick, and it uses straps, clips, and hook-and-loop fastener strips to install on the vehicle. All the pieces for attachment are included. I am including a link to the installation instructions for you to reference.

  • Everything Needed to Flat Tow a 1996 Suzuki Sidekick 2-Door Behind an RV
  • If the crossover tube on your 1996 Suzuki Sidekick 2-door is open you will need to use base plates # 118-3. But you mentioned that it is open with a bracket welded on each side. If that bracket is not blocking the openings on the crossover tube then # 118-3 is correct. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you. The 118-3 base plates have a part of the bracket that looks like a tube that needs to be inserted into that crossover tube. If the ends are blocked then you...

  • Best Supplemental Braking System to Flat Tow A 1996 Suzuki Sidekick
  • I recommend the Stay-IN-Play Duo part # SM99251 for the 1996 Suzuki Sidekick. The Stay-IN-Play is a permanent installation with a concealed operating unit under the dash that activates an actuating cylinder to depress the brake pedal with the motor home brakes. The small cylinder also stays in the vehicle near the brake pedal out of the way for driving the vehicle once you get to your destination. The Stay-IN-Play is the best option because once you have it installed you don't have to remove...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 1998 Suzuki Sidekick 4 Door
  • For your 1998 Suzuki Sidekick 4 door the best value roof rack option we have is the Inno part numbers # INB117, # INSUT, and # INK186. This is a custom fit rack to that would fit much better than the Sportrack had it been a confirmed as well. Which that rack is not a confirmed fit so it definitely can't be used.

  • Will the Rear Bumper Support Need to be Removed for a Hitch on a 1989 Suzuki Sidekick
  • Per the instructions, the rear impact bar that you referenced will need to be removed to install a trailer hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 11128 on your 1989 Suzuki Sidekick. The bar can then be reinstalled if the hitch is removed but it will need to be left off the vehicle while the trailer hitch is present. If you need any other parts for your Sidekick please let me know what they are and I would be happy to offer some recommendations. I have attached install instructions...

  • Blue Ox Tow Bar Recommendation to Connect to Blue Ox Base Plate to Replace Roadmaster Stowmaster
  • The Stowmaster tow bar part # RM-501 can't be adapted to fit a Blue Ox base plate kit. There are no adapters that will work with the Stowmaster. Best option we have would be a similar Blue Ox tow bar like the Blue Ox Acclaim part # BX4330 which will work great and has a coupler style RV attachment like the Stowmaster. This will work great with your Blue Ox Base Plate kit part # BX3505.

  • Can Curt Adjustable Hitch # 13703 Fit C-Channel Frame that is 72 inches Apart
  • You'd want to have the C-channel of your frame boxed where you attach the Curt hitch part # 13703. This will be the only way the hitch will fit the frame and attach securely. You'll need to have a welder weld in a section of metal on the C-channel where you want to install the hitch so that you'd basically be installing it like the trailer had a boxed frame instead.

  • Base Plate Recommendation for a 1998 Suzuki Sidekick with 2 Doors and 4WD
  • I spoke to my contact at Roadmaster and he informed me that you would want the Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit # 1007-2. The current price is on the product page. There are several other components you may need too to complete your flat towing setup. The next thing you will need is a tow bar. For that I would recommend the RoadMaster Sterling All Terrain Tow Bar # RM-576. This tow bar comes with quick-disconnects, safety cables are lighting wiring already. You will also need wiring, for...

  • Can Tow Ready Tow Bar part # 63180 Connect to Blue Ox Base Plate Kit
  • If you had the Tow Ready tow bar part # 63180 you'd be able to use the Blue Ox adapter part # BX8833 to connect to your Blue Ox Base Plate kit part # BX3505. There's no way to use the Curt tow bar you mentioned with the Blue Ox tow bar as there are no adapters available.

  • Adapter Needed to Attach an EAZ Aligner Tow Bar to Roadmaster Base Plates on a 1998 Suzuki Sidekick
  • If you have the EazAligner 2000 car-mounted tow bar, you will need to use the RoadMaster Base Plates to EazAligner 2000 Tow Bar Adapter, item # RM-038, to safely connect your tow bar to the RoadMaster XL Base Plate Kit, item # 1009-1. The Roadmaster Tow Bars, item # RM-032, is designed for certain Blue Ox and Demco tow bars only. If you do not have safety cables you will need a set of those also. If your EAZ-Aligner tow bar has cable guides, use the straight safety cables, item # RM-645,...

  • Base Plate Kit Recommendation for a 1997 Suzuki Sidekick 4x4
  • If you have a 4 door non-Sport 1997 Suzuki Sidekick then you would want part # 1007-2, if you have a Sport model you instead would want the # 1009-1. These both would work great with your Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520. We don't carry any used parts, but the two options I listed will work well for you. The removable arms you have now won't work with any of the base plate kits we offer for your vehicle as they are designed to only work on the base plates they were originally designed...

  • Mounting Bracket Needed for the Curt T-Connector # C55372 4-Way on a 1994 Suzuki Sidekick
  • Yes, we do have a mounting bracket for a 4-Way connector. You can use the Tow Ready Mounting Bracket # 18144 to mount the Curt T-Connctor # C55372 on your 1994 Suzuki Sidekick. If you want to avoid doing any kind of modification to your Sidekick or your trailer hitch you can also use a no-drill mounting bracket.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1997 Suzuki Sidekick 4-Door 4x4 Behind an RV
  • The difference between the base plates for your 1997 Suzuki Sidekick 4-door 4x4 are what each will fit. If it is a Sport model then you would need # 1009-1. If it is NOT a Sport model use # 1007-2. Both have removable arms and will work with the Stowmaster tow bar. For safety cables you can use # RM-643. For lighting the best option I can recommend that will work for sure is a combination of tow light partners # TLP01 and magnetic lights such as # RM-2120. You may also need a high/low...
