Which Safety Cables for Use with Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar Towing 2020 Chevy Equinox
Question:
I purchased from e trailer the base plate kit rm-523193-5. Question 1- What is the recommended length safety cable for this kit on a 2020 Chevy equinox premier? Seems to me I need the 68inch RM-643. Is this correct? Question 2 - What pins do I need for a Road Master Falcon 2 tow bar and the base plate kit listed above. On the instruction sheet the arm #s listed are Driver side c-002383 and passenger side c-0022384. I would have though the base plate kit would have been included but appears not. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
Picking out safety cables for a tow bar setup is more about the length of the tow bar since they are designed to span the distance between the tow vehicle and the towed vehicle. That said, the # RM-643 would work great with your Falcon 2 tow bar part # RM-520. If you have the Falcon 2 and the base plate kit part # RM-523193-5 you would not need additional pins to make that connection.
