• Availability of Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts for Roadmaster Falcon Tow Bar on a 2016 Jeep Wrangler
• Good news! We have both the adapters Roadmaster makes for their tow bars # RM-035-1 and # RM-035 right here on our website. These Roadmaster adapters will adapt the Roadmaster tow bars to off-road bumpers. This will allow you to connect motorhome-mounted tow bars to the bumper mounts. The bumper mounts can have either a 7/8 inch or 1 inch diameter hole. The # RM-035-1 is for bumper mounts that are 1 inch thick and the # RM-035 is for bumper mounts that are 3/4 inches thick.

• Troubleshooting Leaf Spring that Contacts Frame After Install of Dexter EZ Flex
• Your picture didn't make it through but I am familiar with this type of problem. Typically this is due the trailer not sitting level. But if the trailer is sitting level and the issue persists that indicates that you have either an equalizer that's too long, leaf springs that are too long, or the hanger locations are too close together. If you are sure the equalizer dimensions are exact same did any other components change during the install of the EZ Flex?
