Compatibility of Roadmaster XL Base Plates and Roadmaster Falcon 2 tow bar on 2007 Saturn Vue
Question:
I have a Falcon 2 tow bar and have used it with the Roadmaster EZ base plates with removeable round arms to attach the tow bar to the flat towed car. My question is I am changing cars and looking at a 2007 Saturn Vue but I see Roadmaster does not have a EZ base plate for round removeable arms. So can I use my Roadmaster EZ round removeable arms with a Blue OX bast plate which is available for this car with removable round arms?. Thank You

Expert Reply:
Yes, you could use the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX3335 with your Falcon 2 tow bar # RM-520 with the use of Roadmaster Tow Bar to Blue Ox Brackets Adapter # RM-031.
Before doing that, however, keep in mind that the 2007 Saturn Vue would be able to use the Roadmaster XL base plates, though the exact model number depends on the type of engine in the Vue; for example, Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit # 3139-1 fits the 2007 Vue 4-cylinder and hybrid models. The reason this is matters is because you would still be able to use the quick disconnect feature that comes with your Falcon 2 # RM-520 tow bar in the same manner that you did with the EZ base plates.
I have added some links to video reviews for you to take a look at.
