Base Plate Kit for Flat Towing a 2011 Honda Pilot with Roadmaster Falcon Tow Bar

Question:

We sold our old toad, but kept the Falcon Tow bar. It is still in good shape after years of use. Looked up the Roadmaster base plate for our new toad. I under all Roadmaster Base plates fit all Roadmaster tow bars. Thats a big plus if I a did not misunderstand. From looking at pics appears good I kelpt cross bar that attaches to two tubes slide into two receivers on base plate. Pic what I have attached. Also can E Trailer provide me with installations for a installer in advance? Like get install quote for base plate on my toad car. Thanks for any infro.

For your Honda Pilot the correct base plate kit you would need is the Roadmaster part # 1562-1. This will work well with your Falcon tow bar like part # RM-520 as basically all Roadmaster base plate kits are compatible with Roadmaster tow bars.

The cross tube you referenced is part of the tow bar so it is a good thing you kept it since it would not come with a new base plate kit.

I attached a link to the install instructions for the base plate kit plus a couple other articles on flat towing for you to check out as well.
