Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2001 Jeep Cherokee with a Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar
Question:
I have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee sport 4 door, a Falcon 2 tow bar and cross bar labeled Roadmaster Inc 510-1. I need a base plate for the jeep. Is the RM crossbar baseplate kit - removable arms, your item #1418-1 compatible with my components?

Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # 1418-1 is confirmed to fit your 2001 Jeep Cherokee. It will work with your Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520, using the Replacement Quick Disconnect Crossbar Assembly for Roadmaster Tow Bars # 910021-00.
The Roadmaster Inc 510-1 you have is the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # 510-1, which is the base plate kit for an older model Honda Civic. This will not be involved in setting up your Cherokee.
You will also need, safety cables, tow bar wiring and a supplemental braking system to flat tow.
