  • Tow Bar Lighting Recommendation for a 2002 Saturn S-Series
  • A much easier solution that would give you a permanent flat tow lighting solution for your 2002 Saturn S Series would be to install a bulb and socket kit like part # RM-155. Basically with this kit you would install an additional bulb in the current taillight housing of your vehicle which the tow bar wiring will control. I attached an install video for this product for you to check out. Or if you really wanted to make a taillight kit with LED light bars you would want the part # STL79RB...

  • Recommended Remote Transmission Cooler for 1999 Saturn SC2
  • A transmission cooler will absolutely help you with the amount of driving you do to help prolong your transmission. The stop and start traffic won't help cool down your system, so I recommend you use the Derale Dyno-Cool Remote Cooler with Fan and Hose Barb Inlets - Class II # D12740 so you will have a fan to keep air moving even if you are at a stop. I recommend using the Derale Dual Hose Transmission Cooler Installation Kit # D13064. I've attached the installation details to assist.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1997 Saturn SL Sedan Behind a Motor Home
  • For your 1997 Saturn SL sedan I recommend Roadmaster base plates # 52181-1. These base plates have removable arms so you won't have fixed arms sticking out in front of the car all the time. For a compatible tow bar I recommend the Falcon 2 # RM-520. This is a motor home mount tow bar rated up to 6,000 pounds. I have included a link to a video review of this tow bar for you. If you wanted something more budget friendly but with less features you could use the Tracker tow bar # RM-020 with...

  • Base Plate Kit and Other Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2000 Saturn SL1 with a Rangefinder II Tow Bar
  • To use your RangeFinder II tow bar to flat tow your 2000 Saturn SL 1 you will need to use the Roadmaster Bracket Adapter # RM-037 with a Roadmaster base plate kit. The Roadmaster base plate kits that will fit the Saturn are # 154-2, # 52181-1, and # 162-2. All three work with the bracket adapters.

  • Weight Load Range for Roadmaster Cable Connector Set # RM-910022
  • I contacted the manufacturer to find out the load range for this product, part # RM-910022. It is specified for a 2000 pound snap rating. Please note that cable connectors of this type are designed and rated specifically for a horizontal line pull application (but not for hoisting or lifting). The capacities quoted by manufacturers are for this type of application only. I suggest you consider Hidden Hitch part # C82932, which also comes as a set of two. These half-inch Quick Links have...

  • Recommended Replacement Axle for 2007 Carry On Enclosed Trailer
  • I may have a solution for you, however we do not currently have a 3,500 pound standard trailer axle that matches the dimensions for the model that you referenced. I recommend looking into an Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System like the Timbren # ASR3500S06. This system will provide a smooth, quiet, safe ride and can eliminate the need for an axle. This will provide a 3,500 pound weight capacity along with a 4 inch lift to provide greater ground clearance. The EZ Lube spindles will accept...

  • Which Is Better, Ball Mount Or Receiver Tube Style Tow Bar
  • I recommend using a direct receiver type of tow bar over a ball mount tow bar when flat towing. You can experiene a lot of rattling with a ball mount style tow bar # RM-501 and would have to have the ball mount tow bar exactly level. With a receiver hitch style tow bar you'll have three inches of give either higher or lower from level, as you can see in the attached picture. With the receiver style tow bars, like the # RM-522 I recommended before for your 2002 Saturn, you can install the...

  • Replacement Tire Recommendation for a Pop Up Camper with 20.5/8-10 Size Tires
  • The best recommendation I can make for you would be to get a load range E tire like the Loadstar K399 Bias Trailer Tire # AM1HP56. This will fit your rim and will have the highest load rating we offer in that size. We do not have have taller tire that would fit your rim, but the # AM1HP56 should work very well for you. I attached a couple FAQ articles you might find informative also.

  • Base Plate Kit Recommendation for a 2002 Saturn S-Series for a Roadmaster Falcon 5250 Tow Bar
  • Since you already have the Roadmaster Falcon 5250 tow bar, I recommend using Roadmaster base plates. You could use Blue Ox base plates, but you would have to use an adapter between the tow bar and the base plates. If your Saturn is a 4 door sedan model, then I would recommend the Roadmaster Classic Base Plate Kit, # 154-2. If you have a wagon or 2 door coupe model, then I recommend the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit, # 52181-1. I frequently find that the Quick Disconnect Base Bar Assembly,...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2001 Saturn SC1 Coupe Behind an RV
  • First, while you might not be able to find a digital copy of the manual you can find paper copies out there. One thing you might try is to find someone near you selling the same car and go look at their manual for the flat towing procedures. From what I could find you can flat tow your 2001 Saturn SC1. It is not recommended to tow it over 65 miles per hour. Additional information is available once you locate an owner's manual. To flat tow the vehicle there are 5 main parts you will need:...

  • Base Plates, Tow Bar and Equipment Needed to Flat Tow 1998 Saturn SL2 Behind Motorhome
  • Both Blue Ox and Roadmaster make base plates for your vehicle that feature removable base plates. On your particular vehicle, the Blue Ox # BX3310 would be easier to install and the draw bars are easier to remove. The Blue Ox Alpha tow bar, part # BX7380 would be a good choice for a tow bar, and it includes the safety cables. The towbar features automatically locking arms that allow you to attach the tow bar to the base plates even when the vehicle isn't perfectly lined up behind the motorhome. For...

  • Can Reese Strait Line Weight Distribution System be Used on 6 inch Tall Trailer Frame
  • The Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution with Sway Control # RP66084 would fit on your trailer frame as long as it is less than 2-1/2 inches wide. However, because of the height of the trailer frame, I recommend using the Reese Chain Hangers for Reese Weight Distribution Systems # RP58305 in place of the hangers that come with the system. The hangers # RP58305 will bolt onto the trailer frame and can be placed at an appropriate height for the load bar arms. These hangers will also ensure...
