Can Roadmaster Crossbar Base Plate Arms be Replaced With Direct Connect on '21 Buick Encore GX
Question:
I purchase Roadmaster kit 523213-4 can I use a direct connect arm to my falcon 2 with out the crossbar - style base plate ? If not what do I need because I dont have a crossbar . I used the direct connect arms from my old roadmaster kit # 524443-5 . I used it and fits the same way as my old one and drove for a few hundred miles with no problem. I used it on my 2021 Buick Encore GX AWD . Could this be a problem ? I have both crossbar and direct arms . Let me know what I need to do.

Helpful Expert Reply:
I reached out to Roadmaster, who said for your 2021 Buick Encore GX it was perfectly fine to replace the crossbar arms of the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM95VR with the direct-connect arms of the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-524443-5.
So you can use them without any issue in order to attach your Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520.
