Today we're going to be taking at look at the Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables with Anchors. The EZ Hook Safety Cables are going to be faster to connect than other cables. They include the feature of standard cables, with the addition of a unique attachment system. That's going to be the stainless steel ball at the end of the cable, that's going to latch into the slotted portion right here on the anchor plate. The cables are going to measure 64" long, they're going to have the capacity of 8,000 pounds per pair. This unit's going to be made right here in the USA, and it's designed to work with all the Roadmaster mounting brackets with quick disconnects.

The safety cables are aircraft tight galvanized steel, they're going to feature the forged steel hooks with these spring loaded latches to prevent accidental disconnecting. Nice strong durable design. The cables are also going to be vinyl coated, so that's going to prevent scratching and chipping of the tow bar surfaces. The anchors are designed to connect to the tow bar bracket that's located on your vehicle with the included mounting hardware. The anchors are going to be made from a steel construction, they're going to have a black powder coat finish so they're going to do a great job at resisting rust and corrosion. The cables easily connect to the anchor brackets by inserting the ball ends through the diagonal slots, and then pulling down into the sides.

Very quick and easy installation of the cable into the anchor, as well as removal. If you have short cables connecting your base plates to your vehicle, you can attach them to the holes on the anchors. This hole right here with a quick link, quick links are sold separately. If you need some, you can find them right here at etrailer.com. Once you have that all that done though, you're going to be ready to connect your cables to your tow vehicle. We do recommend that when connecting this to your tow vehicles that you cross the cables below the hitch to create a cradle.

In the event of a separation, this will help in preventing the tow bar from striking the ground. That's going to do it for today's look at the Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables with Anchors and the mounting hardware.

My tow vehicle went on fire on July 4. If I did NOT have these safety cables, I would not have been able to disconnect my motorhome before it, too, caught fire. I will never tow with the other cables.

Like my original purchases. Great service from eTrailer. Kept track of every step and arrived I. Less time than originally told.

Makes things so easy for hook up. A great product. Attached to the bar easily

Customer Service Gold Standard!!! I buy everything online. I never write reviews. Never say "Never". Here is the exception. Exceptional service from the minute I called to place my order, to order confirmation, to shipping confirmation to after delivery notice asking if I had any questions and giving me a phone number to call.

When I called to order Nicholas C was just so polite, helpful, and full of information on the product, shipping options, etc. I was just blown away by the professionalism of Nicholas. I needed the product soon and purchased the three-day delivery. Nicholas informed me that as it was already Wednesday at 4:30 it probably would not get shipped that day but would be shipped the next morning. Because a weekend was approaching I should expect delivery on Monday. Within 30 minutes I got a notice from Nicholas that they were able to get it shipped that day and it arrived at my door, in Claifornia, at 12:00 PM on Friday. Are all the customer service folks at eTrailer as good as Nicholas, or is he just the cream of the crop that I was lucky to get connected with? This is the way customer service should be done. My only disappointment is that you can't give more than Five Stars.

The EZ hook safety cables were very easy to add to my Sterling All-Terrain tow-bar. I we certainly like the "EZ" part of unhooking the car from the bus when we need to.

Needed to replace our old cables and checked our local Camping Store. They were charging a ridiculous price. I checked trader.com and found exactly what we needed for half the price. The website made it easy to locate exactly what I needed. Ordering online was super simple and the package arrived within 5 days- earlier than the anticipated date. I appreciated that they sent an email notifying me that the order was received and another when the item shipped. I will definitely order through them for future purchases.

Loved the safety chain I just wished they were about 6 inches shorter. Have to use bungee cords to keep from dragging

  • Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cable Anchors Compatible With Roadmaster XL Base Plates

  • Proper Safety Cables to Use with the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate
    I spoke with Roadmaster to help with this, and we have a solution. The EZ Hook Safety Cables, part # RM-655, are not compatible with the Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit for the 2020 Chevrolet Traverse, part # RM-523200-5. The Base Plate you have does not have a spot for the anchors of the cables to mount to. Instead, use the Single Hook Cables, part # RM-645. I've linked to a video installation of these cables so you can see how they work.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2005 GMC Sierra 1500
    First you would need to start with a base plate kit for your 2005 GMC Sierra 1500. If you have a Z71 model you would want the part # 199-5, if you have an HD model you would want the part # 3115-1, or if you have neither an HD or a Z71 you would want the part # 199-10. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar is the RoadMaster Sterling All Terrain...

    The Roadmaster 68-inch Single Hook Safety Cables # RM-643, will work out great for use with your Roadmaster Falcon tow bar and Blue Ox Base plates. However, you will need to use the adapter bar specified for using Roadmaster tow bars with Blue Ox base plates; the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter # RM-031. The Roadmaster safety cables # RM-643 will work wonderfully with the Roadmaster built-in cable guide on the Falcon tow bar. The safety cables that you mentioned above, the Roadmaster EZ Hook...

  • Is Additional Safety Cable Needed When Installing Roadmaster EZ Hook Up to EZ4 Base Plate Kit
    The EZ4 base plate kit you have installed on your 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee part # RM-521440-4 has safety chain tabs that are on the portion of the kit that attach directly to the vehicle frame. Since this base plate kit did not come with a short safety chain cable like some of the kits do you would not need an additional length of cable.

  • What Parts Are Need to Tow a 2009 Honda CR-V Behind an RV or Motorhome
    I will walk you through which parts you need starting from your 2009 Honda CR-V and move towards the vehicle. First you need base plates for the CR-V if you do not already have them. The base plates available for your CR-V are RoadMaster part # RM-521559-4. Next you need the towbar. You have selected RoadMaster part # RM-501. It has a quick disconnect system built in and will fit the base plates for your CR-V, so part # 910021-00 is not needed. You will need safety cables. You can use...

  • Solution to Allow Connection of Safety Chain Clevises to Larger Chain Loops on 2022 Winnebago Forza
    I may have a solution for you, but I checked with my contact over at Roadmaster and there are unfortunately not different sized clevis hooks on their safety cables like the # RM-655. However, you may be able to use some quick links like the Quick Links - 1/2" Diameter - Qty 2 # 37201345 to allow you to connect to the larger safety chain loops on your 2022 Winnebago Forza; you can then connect your safety chain clevises to the quick link directly.
