• Roadmaster Base Plate and Tow Bar Compatibility on 1998 Honda Accord
  The Roadmaster XL base plate kit # 1541-1 does not fit your 1998 Accord but the similar kit # 1545-1 does fit, and with it you can use the Roadmaster StowMaster Car-Mount Tow Bar # RM-501. This tow bar also directly fits the base plates you referenced. Safe and legal flat towing requires a number of other components in addition to the tow bar and base plates. If you like you can refer to the linked article on flat towing that covers all of these components, which include a wiring/lighting...

• Tow Bar Adapter to Adapt Blue Ox Base Plates # BX1675 to Roadmaster Stowmaster Tow Bar # RM-501
  The Roadmaster/Blue Ox adapters you referenced, parts # RM-031 and # RM-031-5, do not fit the Stowmaster tow bars. The Blue Ox base plates # BX1675 for your 2008 GMC Acadia are designed for use with motor home mounted tow bars and not car mounted tow bars like the Stowmaster. Further, your 2008 Acadia may weigh too much to allow use of any tow bar adapters, which are only rated for use with vehicles up to 5000-lbs. A better and safer option is to use a directly-compatible Blue Ox tow...

• Adding LED Lights To A Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 4
  We have definitely seen customers do this and modify racks like the EasyFold # TH903202 before using the LED kit part # 98174LED and the brackets # BK70BB to mount. You will also need some self-tapping screws # FA1131822, or drill and use the hardware of your choice to mount the brackets. Doing modifications on the Sport Rider SE 4 # HR1400Z can cause a voiding of the warranty so that's worth checking out with Hollywood Racks before taking this on. Another option to consider that doesn't...

• Sway Control Activates On 2015 Ford F-250 When Flat-Towing 1999 Jeep Wrangler
  If you have anti-sway on your 2015 F-250, adding weight to the rear of the truck may not keep the system from becoming activated. The best solution would be to go slower when driving on roads with uneven surfaces. The # RP66022 you came from is a weight distribution system that is intended to be used with trailer towing and is not designed to flat-tow a vehicle. There are 5 items needed when you flat-tow a vehicle. If you do not have all the items needed I will make some recommendations...

• Will Optronics LED Magnetic Tow Lights Protect Against Scratching 2018 Ford Fiesta SE Paint?
  The Optronics Magnetic LED Tow Light Kit - Weatherproof - Red Lens - 20' Wiring Harness - Qty 2 # TLL21RK has a protective label pad on the bottom to keep from scratching paint. You can see this at the 2 minute mark of the attached review video. I do recommend wiping down the vehicle with a microfiber cloth before putting the lights on simply to remove any dust or debris that could be abrasive between the scratch free label and the paint for added security.

• Can a 2015 Toyota Camry Be Dolly Towed?
  According to the owners manual for your 2015 Toyota Camry it can be pulled by a Tow Dolly # DM9713093 with the front wheels off the ground in an emergency situation.

• Tail Lights for Motorcycle Carrier that Blocks Tow Vehicles Lights
  If a motorcycle on a hitch mounted carrier is blocking your vehicle's tail lights and turn signals then it will be illegal to use in day or night. If you have a 4-way trailer connector you can use a cargo carrier light kit, like # e98943-44LED. These are designed to be installed on a cargo carrier but they'll work for your application. You'll need to find a way to mount them though. Another option is a magnetic light kit. The Magnetic LED Tow Lights # TLL21RK plug into the vehicle's...

• Do Vehicle Taillights Need to Function If Vehicle is Towed with Tow Dolly
  Generally, you don't need additional lighting when using a tow dolly that already has lights. However, it's not a bad idea to check with the local laws in the states you'll be traveling in. If you do need to have lights on the vehicle you could use the magnetic LED tow light kit part # TLL21RK and to add a 4-way to your tow vehicle's wiring you would want the part # 18252 which would wire into the current trailer wiring.
