  • Can Rest of the Parts Be Obtained for the Roadmaster BrakeMaster If You Only Have Air Cylinder
  • If you only have the Roadmaster BrakeMaster Air Cylinder part # RM-9100-50 (With Brake Pedal Clamp) then you'd need the Replacement Cord part # RM-921004, Second Vehicle Kit with Breakaway part # RM-98160, and Second Vehicle Kit for Air Brakes part # RM-98200. This would end up being around the same cost as the Roadmaster BrakeMaster System part # RM-9160 so that's up to you.

Along with the base plates and your Stowmaster 5000 tow bar, there are a few other parts you will need in order to flat tow your 2020 Equinox: - Safety Chains: Roadmaster 80" Coiled Safety Cables # RM-653 -...

  • Are Trailer Brakes Brakes Needed for 1000 lb Pop-Up Camper
  • It will depend on what state you are located in. In most states, trailer brakes aren't required unless the trailer weighs 3500 lbs or more. This being said, if your pop-up is already equipped with them, it's not a bad idea to use them. If your popup is equipped with brakes, and you'd like to use them, the easiest way to make that happen if you have a smart phone would be by using the Curt Echo # C51180. If your Equinox has a 7-way trailer connector, the controller install would be plug...

  • What Do I Need to Tow a Trailer with Brakes on a 2014 Chevrolet Equinox
  • You will need a few things for a complete set up to tow a trailer on your 2014 Chevrolet Equinox. First, let's start with the trailer hitch: For your 2014 Chevrolet Equinox I recommend the Class III, 2 inch etrailer # e98865.

  • What Flat Towing Package Would Work For MY 2019 Chevrolet Equinox
  • When it comes to flat towing your 2019 Equinox there are a few items that will be similar to the items you saw already. The main difference would be the RoadMaster Baseplate # RM-523193-5. This baseplate is a direct fit for you vehicle. It is the direct connect style. From the baseplate any RoadMaster tow bar would work for you. I recommend The Falcon 2 # RM-520. The Falcon 2 is rated for 6000 pounds and will connect directly to your baseplate. For the wiring of the vehicle I recommend...

  • Parts Recommended to F,at Tow a 2022 Chevy Equinox behind Jayco Precept Motorhome
  • Roadmaster hasn't been able to get their hands on a 2022 Chevy Equinox to determine the base plate fits, so they cannot say whether or not the base plates for the 2021 model will carry over. However, Blue Ox lists the # BX1730 base plate as a fit, so that's what I'd recommend. Roadmaster offers the # RM-525 Falcon 2 tow bar that's compatible right out of the box with Blue Ox base plates, so it'll work great for you. The Roadmaster Invisibrake, part # RM-8700 would work well for you. You'll...

  • Can Awning Rail Already on R-Pod be Used With Solera Awning
  • Thank you for the photo; I cannot confirm for you what rail is already on your 2019 R-Pod and its compatibility with the Solera 8' Slider (Slide-Topper) in Black w/ Black Hardware # LCV000168106, though chances are it won't be an issue. At worst you would need to remove your existing rail and install the awning rail that comes with the Solera # LCV000168106 so you will be covered either way. Just keep in mind that this awning will fit your R-Pod so long as it has a box width range of 86"...

  • Using the Nighthawk All Terrain # RM-676 to Flat Tow a 2013 Chevrolet Equinox
  • The base plate kit that you want to install on your 2013 Chevrolet Equinox to use with the Nighthawk All Terrain # RM-676 is Roadmaster EZ5 # RM-523160-5. These will connect directly to each other without an adapter. This base plate kit will not fit your Equinox if it has a brush guard, but it does have a limited amount of trimming as you can see from figure T in the attached instructions. To finish the wiring on your Equinox you need the Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-152. Since a fuse...

  • Correct Wiring Harness to Install Curt Brake Controller on 2020 Chevy Equinox
  • Equinox models equipped with the tow package will have blunt-ended tow package wiring located behind the side panel of the center console on the driver's side next to the gas pedal instead of a connector. You'll need the # C51515 universal harness that will plug into the Curt # C27JR Echo brake controller and wire directly to the tow package wiring. The tow package wiring is a bundle of 4 blunt ended wires that are blue, black, white/blue striped and red/green stripe. The pigtail wires...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2018 Chevrolet Equinox Behind Motorhome
  • According to the owner's manual, 1.5L gas and 1.6L Diesel engine and 1.6L Diesel AWD models can be successfully flat towed. I'd recommend beginning with a Blue Ox base plate, part # BX1730 which is compatible with your tow bar if the # BX88297 adapter is used. You'll also want safety cables like # RM-643 if you don't already have them. To join the motorhome's taillight wiring to that of the Equinox, I'd recommend the Roadamaster Diode kit, part # RM-152-98146-7. For a supplemental braking...
