• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2012 Honda Civic with Manual Transmission
• We can definitely help you find the parts you're looking for; a full flat towing setup consists of base plates, a tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, and supplemental braking.

• The Roadmaster # 521557-1 base plates are compatible with the 2006-2008 2 and 4 door DX, EX and LX Civic models. I've confirmed this with Roadmaster.

• To flat tow your 2004 Honda Civic you will need vehicle specific base plates, a tow bar, safety chains, a supplemental braking system, tow wiring for your Civic, and a wiring extension.

It'll pair nicely with either base plate kit and it includes safety cables and a wiring harness. I recommend...

• Is Bike Adapter Bar Needed for a Womans Bike on a Hanging Style Carrier
• When using a hanging style bike rack with a woman's bike - or any that has a frame design without a horizontal top frame tube - a bike adapter bar such as the Yakima Tube Top # Y02531 is helpful. Adapter bars simply attach at the seat and handlebar posts and provide a level mounting surface to mate with the carrier's arms. This ensures the bike remains level for safe ground clearance at the wheels. The linked video illustrates installation.

• Parts Needed To Tow a Trailer and Haul a Cargo Carrier With a 2016 Honda Civic Sedan
• Currently, a class I receiver like the Curt # C11604 that is rated for 200lbs of tongue weight and towing up to 2,000lbs is the only receiver available for your 2016 Honda Civic Sedan. There is not a receiver capable of supporting the weight of your Curt carrier fully loaded behind your Civic and this is most likely due to the structure under your Civic not being able to support the weight. The 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18110 will fit the class I receiver for your Civic. You will only...

• What Fairing Length do I Need for The Rhino-Rack ROC25 # RR78TR?
• I have the correct size for you! Since the front crossbar of the Rhino-Rack ROC25 # RR78TR measures 40-9/16" long, the 50" Fairing # RRRF4 is too long for the setup. The clamps of the 50" will interfere with the feet on the rack. With that being said, the perfect size is the 38" Fairing # RRRF2. This length provides the best fit for your crossbar length.

• How to Raise Height of Trailer
• There are a couple of ways to raise the height of a trailer frame. For most the easiest and least costly method for doing this is to install what we call an axle over-under kit. Such a kit is simply new axle mounting hardware that allows the axle and spring positions to be reversed, moving the axle underneath the leaf springs, as shown in the linked photo. This change of axle and spring positions will give the entire trailer a height lift equal to the axle's diameter PLUS the height of...
