Can Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar be Used to Flat Tow a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Question:
can you use a Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar - 2inch Ball - 5,000 lbs Item # RM-020 to tow a 2006 jeep grand cherokee 4x4?
asked by: Michael N
Expert Reply:
Since the Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar # RM-020 is rated for 5,000 lbs you can use it to flat tow your 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # 1427-1. Just be sure that your Jeep stays under that 5,000 lb weight capacity.
To complete your flat towing setup I also recommend using the 68" Safety Cables # RM-643, Optronics Magnetic Towing Lights # TL21RK, and the Brake Buddy Classic # HM39494.
It is also important to follow any instructions in your owner's manual about flat towing your vehicle.
