Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Inner Arm Bushing Kit for the Roadmaster Sterling tow bars. Now this part here will include six of the Nylatron bushings, two of the urethane bushings, and two Nylock nuts. Comes with a nice set of instructions. It'll describe how this all goes together. Basically, this will replace the inner arm bushings that are on your Roadmaster Sterling tow bar.
Now it does exclude the all terrain models and it does work on tow bar models with a serial number lower than 27,671. This is for a quantity of two Inner Arm Bushing Kits with the hardware. But that should do it for the review on the Inner Arm Bushing Kit for the Roadmaster Sterling tow bars..

Replaces the inner arm bushings on your Roadmaster Sterling tow bar. Works on models with a serial number lower than 27671.I bought a used older generation Roadmaster Sterling which had obviously seen some use. But when I took it apart it looked and worked good. This bushing replacement is an OEM replacement and provides the basis for a solid rebuild.
Nice little rebuild kit. Pretty easy instal and refreshed the operation of my tow bar set up. Still working great. A much better option than buying a new tow bar
Bushing kit performed like new. Easy to rebuild.
This kit works, not too hard to install. How to on youtube.
Great product to repair those hard to move tow bar arms. Woud be excellent if it included the split sleeve bearing for the alminium housing or at least recommend it be ordered at the same time.
Included is a pic of one of my bushing, what's left of the bushing. The other arm was worst.
Great selection on older towing accessories most always in stock.. thanks
These parts fit my Sterling Tow Bar perfectly. They were easy to change and now the tow bar works like new. Oh, and shipping was amazingly fast. Thank you.
Before I ordered the 2 rebuild kits for and older model Sterling All Terrain Roadmaster towbar I did a lot of investigation. Called etrailer and was reassured the rebuild kits were compatible for my age of towbar. I then called Roadmaster and was told the same thing. I ordered them from etrailer as I’ve always been pleased with their service and timely delivery.
To my surprise when i recieved the product and installed the bushing on the internal arms I found the arms would no longer fit into the tubes. I tried sanding them a bit but then thought why am I doing this they were supposed to fit.
Called etrailer and they said because I altered the bushings there would be no refund. They helped by calls Roadmaster and guess what. The rebuild kits are made for the later issue steely towbar and the installation requires sanding of the round bushings in order for them to fit. Hmm,
Never told that and the instructions didn’t say anything about sanding but as it turns out I did what was supposed to have been done.
As there would now be no refund because the parts were altered I carried on with sanding the bushings. Not an easy thing on a round donut.
Roadmaster agreed to send me 3 more so I can start over. Thank you Roadmaster
The kits were also missing 1 white 3/4 in nylon washer and the 2 c-clips for the small pins that hold the springs. Also being sent by Roadmaster.

According to Roadmaster, theres been some running design changes over the years that will affect the fit of the inner bushings. On some models, the fit will indeed need to be adjusted by removing a small amount of material on the bushing.
It only took a few minutes to install the bushing after talking about a bushing that I realized was hidden with the technician. The bars slide with very little effort and I am thankful to everyone.
Next spring we will be trading cars so I will need to order new tow bar equipment. Hope there is no back log.

Still working great as long as one keeps the bars clean and lubed with a silicone spray
Note that this product only fits certain Sterling tow bars, best to disassemble your tow bar and examine the inner arm type before purchase.

This bushing kit is intended for the Roadmaster Sterling non all Terrain models that have a serial number that is lower than 27671. You will need to spread the 2 arms apart on the tow bar and then look for the sticker where the two arms come together. That is where you should find the serial number.
Product was exactly what I needed. Shipping was extremely fast. My older Sterling tow bar is like brand new. Thanks

I love the improvement in the towbar.
Exact replacement. Just what I needed to rebuild my Roadmaster Sterling tow bar and convert to a Blue Ox spec. baseplate.
I just completed our Florida trip using my Roadmaster tow bar rebuilt with your parts. Connecting and disconnecting has never been easier. I bought the tow bar used and if I had known what a difference rebuilding would make, I would have done it years ago.
There are several options for baseplate and associated items to set autos up for towing but I used the expertise of the etrailer reps that recommended the 'correct' items to make it happen. I recommend etrailer often.
The bushing kit I ordered to rebuild my Roadmaster tow bars worked great...works like new now.
I received the parts in just a few days. Packaged well including very good instructions. I received regular communication of the shipment time, transit updates and an email the package had actually been delivered to my shipping address. Prior to ordering the parts, I had several questions on my application, the parts, and the installation. All of my questions we answered completely and timely. Every step from initial contact to completion of the repairs was a great customer experience. These guys are awesome!
We bought all of these parts to rebuild a used Sterling tow bar we bought. They all worked and fit perfectly. It actually made hitch feel and work like a new one for a lot less money.
Installation instructions were included and made installation very easy.
Parts in kit were exactly as listed on web site.
I have purchased from etrailer.com several times, all with great product, pricing, and delivery.
I have an older Roadmaster Sterling towbar that the inner arms were sticking. Ordered the bushing kit. Received promptly. Installed last night and works like it was new. Thanks etrailer!!
Very much liked the quick way of preparing my order for shipment and providing ship data.retrived the package the next day. wasn't any problem for me.
The parts did the job for me. Thanks Paul
Parts to refresh sterling tow bar. Works great. etrailer is a good company to work with.
My Sterling tow bar rods needed to be pounded in with a mallet before I replaced the bushings, now it works perfectly again I just wish I would have changed them sooner. Just what I needed, shipped fast, great customer service.
Parts were delivered on time, exactly what I wanted. The assembly instructions were very helpful. My tow bar assembly works like new, I especially liked the shipping tracking.
I'm happy. You can't ask for anything more!
The instructions are good just make sure you clean all parts before installing new kit! Boy do they slide in and out with ease now better than when it was new!!
