Expert Answers about Saturn S Series


  • 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...

  • Replacement RV AC Unit Recommendation for 1985 Holiday Rambler Ultra Lite Travel Trailer
  • For a basic but effective RV AC unit the Advent Air part # ADV44FR would be a great option that runs off 110 AC power like you have present. This comes with a roof distribution box as well as a wall thermostat to control it so it would be all that you'd need.

  • 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 Head Position Should B and W Companion Hitch Use when Installed in Long Bed Truck
  • For a long bed truck like your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 I'd recommend going with the forward most position since it'll put more weight forward of the rear axle. Since you have a long bed you wouldn't need the additional clearance of having the arms of the hitch mounted in the rearward position. You can also try this position first and then check for clearance issues between the cab and the trailer nose to see if you'd need additional clearance.

  • 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...

  • Yakima Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Ford E-350
  • The benefit to going with a longer crossbar on a roof rack is that you get more room for roof mounted accessories. The longer crossbars can sometimes mean that you will need to watch your head getting into and out of your vehicle though. Also, you don't want the bars extending beyond the mirrors. The recommended Yakima Roof Rack for your 2012 Ford E-350 consists of 66 inch crossbars # Y00410 and Gutter Feet part # Y00101. For 78 inch crossbars to use instead you would want the # Y00411. The...

  • 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,...

  • Recommended Economically-Priced Tow Bar and Base Plate Options for 1997 Saturn SC-1
  • The most economically-priced base plate that is compatible with your Saturn SC-1 would be the Roadmaster # 154-1. The Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar you mentioned would be the most affordable option. However, never forget that you get what you pay for. Other higher-priced Base Plate and Tow Bar options would be easier and more convenient to use. For instance, the Roadmaster Falcon 2 towbar, part # RM-520 is telescoping, which means that the dinghy does not need to be perfectly aligned behind...

  • Will Roadmaster Base Plate Kit 154-2 Work With Stowmaster Tow Bar
  • The Roadmaster base plate kit part # 154-2 is a fit for your 2000 Saturn S Series-SL2 and would work just fine with a Roadmaster Stowmaster part # RM-501 that you have.

  • 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.

  • What Hitch Fits 1998 Saturn S Series Coupe
  • We do not currently (July 2023) have a hitch for your 1998 Saturn SC2. If you would like to carry bikes on your Saturn, you could use the Malone Runway Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Adjustable Arms # MAL84RR. I have attached a review video for this rack for you to check out.

  • 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...
