The ROADMASTER difference

• ‘Hands-on’ design and manufacturing

ROADMASTER doesn’t outsource. All of our core products are designed, engineered

and manufactured at our plant in Vancouver, Washington, with virtually every process

done under the same roof.

To us, “made in the U.S.A.” means just that — we didn’t just assemble it; we made it.

The reason for hands-on manufacturing is simple: quality. Quality starts on the inside,

and when you control the process, you control the quality. The way we see it, “quality

rst” is the reason more ROADMASTER towing products are on the road today than any

other brand.

• The most stringent testing in the industry

ROADMASTER was the rst towing products manufacturer to use computerized testing

— as well as “real world” physical testing — to ensure structural integrity, longevity and

the safety of your family.

ROADMASTER starts with raw steel

and ends with the nest tow bars

on the planet.

A true

American

manufacturer

Step 4

Safety equipment and accessories

Required by law in almost every state, safety cables

(A) attach to both your towed vehicle and your mo-

torhome as a secondary security device.

Your towed vehicle must also be wired for function-

ing turn signals and taillights while in tow. A Univer-

sal Wiring Kit with diodes (B) safely connects the two

vehicles’ electronics. A power cord (C) is necessary to

conduct the lighting signals from the motorhome to

the towed vehicle.

These items can

be purchased sep-

arately or you can

purchase a Combo

Kit similar to the

one shown here,

which also includes

a tow bar cover (D)

and other common

accessories, matched to your ROADMASTER tow bar

(kit contents vary).

Question — tow bar…

A tow bar is by far the most com-

mon method of towing. It allows

for the quickest connection to the

motorhome; plus it’s lightweight,

easy to handle and simple to store.

Step 1

Select a tow bar

If you select the tow bar meth-

od of towing, you must choose ei-

ther a motorhome-mounted tow

bar or a car-mounted tow bar.

…or tow dolly?

A tow dolly is ideal for those who

want to tow multiple vehicles with-

out installing a tow bar or mount-

ing bracket on each one. Plus, a

transmission lube pump system

is not necessary for vehicles with

front wheel drive automatic trans-

missions because the front wheels

are off the ground.

Step 2

Mounting bracket

Regardless of the type of

tow bar you choose, a tow bar

mounting bracket will be re-

quired. It’s custom-designed

to t your specic tow vehi-

cle and bolts to the vehicle’s

frame to provide an attach-

ment point for the tow bar.

Motorhome-mounted…

Motorhome-mounted tow bars

insert into the

two-inch mo-

torhome receiv-

er and can be

stored on the

back of the motorhome.

Motorhome-mounted bars are

preferred because they never

have to be lifted off the front of

the towed vehicle and you always

have a built-in spot for storage

on your motorhome.

…or car-mounted?

Car-mounted tow bars are

mounted and

stored on the

front of your

towed vehicle.

Designed for simplicity and

ease of use, they can be detach-

ed and lifted off the vehicle for

storage in a trunk or cargo bin.

Step 3

Supplemental brakes

Supplemental brakes are required in most states,

and for an excellent reason — the laws of physics. At

highway speeds or during a panic stop, the inertia of a

towed vehicle’s weight signicantly increases stopping

distance.

Oftentimes, the difference between a severe acci-

dent and a close call is just a few feet. Supplemen-

tal braking systems are designed to stop the towed

vehicle-motorhome combination in about the same

distance as the motorhome alone.

There are four ROADMASTER systems to choose

from, offering you the widest choice of any manufac-

turer.

There are four major components to any towing system — the tow bar, the mounting bracket, supple-

mental brakes and towing accessories.

ROADMASTER offers a wide range of product choices within each category. Each one has been de-

signed, tested and manufactured to make every aspect of your towing experience safe and pleasurable.

Important — Before towing any vehicle, consult your owner’s manual to be sure your vehicle can

be towed with all four wheels on the ground without damage to the transmission. Some vehicles can

be towed as is, but others may require a transmission lube pump system or driveshaft disconnect. Both

products are reliable, time-proven accessories that protect your vehicle’s transmission during towing.

Exclusive features

• Patented one-step storage latch

Fold the tow bar toward the motorhome and

it will “click,” automatically locking in place.

• Built-in channel guides

Both the safety cables and the power cord are

routed through the built-in channel guides for

protection against damage or dragging, and

for a clean, uncluttered look.

• Solid stainless steel inner arms

For smooth, trouble-free operation and easy

maintenance. Stainless steel looks better,

lasts longer and prevents corrosion that binds

— Roadmaster tow bars are the most rust-

free in the industry.

• Largest hook-up radius

No wasted time lining up your towed vehicle!

You can’t say this about many things in life

but connecting Roadmaster tow bars is just

like horseshoes — “close” is good enough.

• Metal-ake powder-coat nish

This nish exceeds all 500-hour salt spray,

extreme weather and high-impact standards.

Tow Bar Mounting Brackets

Why our brackets are the strongest, safest and easiest to use…

• A better design — our brackets are integrated into the

frame and undercarriage of the vehicle, connecting to exist-

ing holes and fasteners wherever possible, for a quick, easy

installation by your local professional.

• Easier installation — our brackets are 30 percent quicker to

install, on average, than other brands — there are fewer com-

ponents to unbolt or remove and fewer holes to drill.

• Computer-tested — every bracket design is subjected to

computer-simulated “Finite Element Analysis” (see below) to

ensure structural integrity and maximum strength.

• Custom t — every mounting bracket is custom-made to t a

specic vehicle or range of vehicles.

• We have the bracket for your car — we have more than

What is ‘FEA?’

ROADMASTER’s computerized testing

method is called “FEA,” which stands for “Fi-

nite Element Analysis.”

If that sounds complicated, that’s because

it is — FEA is the same method NASA engi-

neers use to test their new designs. The au-

tomotive and biomedical industries, among

others, also use nite element analysis.

Every FEA design is displayed as a full-

scale, three-dimensional object, which en-

gineers can rotate and study on the screen

as they apply thousands of pounds of force

across the load-bearing components. Stress

in the steel is pinpointed and the design is

manipulated to remove it.

The result is an optimized design, in both

materials and components, which has been

tested and veried at maximum linear strain

— the strongest, safest and easiest-to-use

brackets in the industry.

ROADMASTER was the rst towing prod-

ucts manufacturer to use computerized

stress testing — as well as “real world” phys-

ical testing — on our tow bars and mounting

brackets to ensure structural integrity, lon-

gevity and the safety of your family.

A screen capture image of one facet of FEA testing for a tow bar

mounting bracket.

An engineering drawing shows the ‘hidden’ front extensions

(see page 7) and a portion of the receiver brace, which is

attached behind the fascia.

Every ROADMASTER mounting bracket is a custom design.

1,200 different brackets

other company) — which t

nearly every vehicle made

during the last 25 years.

• Baked-on nish — every

bracket is powder coated. In

this process, charged par-

ticles of pigment are baked

into the surface of the brack-

et. They fuse to the metal to

form a lustrous, uniform and

extremely durable nish.

truck or SUV?

More than likely.

• Call us (800-669-9690) or

• visit www.roadmasterinc.com.

Now you see ‘em...

Which bracket style

is right for you?

Why do you need a

supplemental braking system?

Here are ve reasons…

1. Safety rst! Supplemental brakes…

• …take the load off the motorhome. When the motorhome and towed vehicle

brake in tandem, it takes signicantly less time and distance to come to a con-

trolled stop.

• …relieve stress on the tow bar and the mounting brackets — a panic stop

without supplemental brakes is a leading cause of tow system failure.

• …reduce the chance of a catastrophic brake failure at the motorhome as a

result of sustained braking.

2. It’s required — According to the American Automobile Association,

most states — plus many Canadian provinces — now require supplemental

brakes if the towed weight exceeds 3,000 pounds (see page 9).

3. Chassis warranty — Workhorse/Chevrolet will void your chassis war-

ranty if you tow more than 1,000 pounds without supplemental brakes; Ford

stipulates 1,500 pounds.

4. Wear and tear — Because they aren’t braking for two vehicles, your

motorhome brakes last longer.

5. It just makes good sense — Every other trailer on the road today —

fth wheels, travel trailers, boat trailers or semi-trailers — has its own braking

system. When you’re towing two or three extra tons, shouldn’t you have a

supplemental braking system to stop it?

Which system is right for me?

A ‘direct’ system? — BrakeMaster is recommended if you don’t fre-

quently change motorhomes or towed vehicles. Because it connects directly

to the motorhome’s braking system, the initial installation is longer than a

portable system. But once installed, it’s a truly trouble-free and easy-to-use

braking system.

A ‘set-it-and-forget-it’ system? — InvisiBrake is recommended if

you like convenience above all else and plan on keeping your towed ve-

hicle for the foreseeable future. InvisiBrake is not a portable system, but

the major components can be easily removed and installed in a new towed

vehicle.

Or a portable? — Even Brake and the 9700 are recommended if you

change towed vehicles or motorhomes often. Both are portable systems, with

no installed components in the motorhome ex-

cept for a dashboard monitor. Initial installation

time is approximately one hour, depending on

the vehicles.

Even Brake is a sophisticated system with

proportional braking; the 9700 is a basic sys-

tem which applies a pre-set braking pressure.

Supplemental Braking Systems

All systems…

• …will bring your towed vehicle into compli-

ance with U.S. and Canadian requirements.

• …include an emergency break away system,

to stop your towed vehicle should it ever sepa-

rate from the motorhome.

• …work in virtually any towed vehicle with pow-

er brakes.

• …work in virtually any motorhome.

• …greatly decrease your stopping distance,

helping you avoid the danger and hassle of

accidents. Even Brake

Portable Proportional Braking

Portable Proportional Braking System

9400 Even Brake portable proportional braking system

Made in the U.S.A.

Even Brake…Even Safer.

Even Brake is the ultimate portable, proportional towed vehicle braking sys-

tem. It automatically increases or decreases braking pressure in direct propor-

tion to the motorhome. In other words, it brakes evenly — at the same time, and

at the same intensity, as you brake the motorhome.

Proportional braking is a distinct advantage over ‘on-or-off’ systems, which

brake at one preset level, no matter how hard the motorhome stops. Even Brake

delivers full emergency braking when you need it, and won’t cause excessive

brake wear when you don’t.

Nobody brakes the same way every time — and neither does Even Brake.

Even Brake’s monitor gives you complete,

continuous braking information — at a glance.

Even Brake stays in constant communication with the motorhome, and with you.

It reports any braking activity or a change in system status to a wireless monitor in

the motorhome.

The monitor shows you —

• An LED display across the top of the monitor illuminates when Even Brake is apply-

ing the brakes or if there is any change in the braking system. The LED display is a

quick, visual reference — a green, yellow or red light.

• Simultaneously, an LCD text message directly below the LED explains the current

braking condition, in complete detail.

The monitor tells you —

• In addition to the LED display and the LCD text message, an audio tone will alert

you to an emergency braking condition.

Exclusive Features

• Full-time proportional braking — proportional braking is even

braking — your towed vehicle’s brakes respond to your motor-

home’s brakes, at the same time and intensity.

• Constant self-diagnostic testing — Even Brake monitors its own

performance constantly, and any change in system status is trans-

mitted to the motorhome monitor. Even Brake is the only supple-

mental braking system that checks itself, so you don’t have to — a

glance at the monitor assures you that Even Brake is fully operational.

• ‘Power Save’ low battery protection — Even Brake warns you

of a low battery in the towed vehicle with LED and LCD alerts at

the motorhome monitor, giving you time to recharge the battery.

If the battery voltage drops too low, Even Brake goes into sleep

mode, while retaining emergency braking power.

• ‘Terrain-Sensing Logic’ — Even Brake adjusts to uphill or downhill

grades and to rough terrain by automatically leveling itself. Because

it ’s al way s lev e l, E ve n B r a ke a l w a y s b r a kes w i t h m a x imu m e f  c i e n c y.

Additional Features

• Automatic brake protection — the monitor alerts you after an ex-

tended period of continuous braking, then Even Brake releases brak-

ing pressure, avoiding excessive wear on the towed vehicle’s brakes.

• Easily adjusts to individual braking preferences — adjust

braking force and sensitivity at the touch of a button.

• On-board memory — even when unplugged, Even Brake will re-

member your adjustment settings and will automatically level itself.

• Completely portable — easily transfers from vehicle to vehicle

without expensive labor fees; connects and disconnects in seconds.

• Automatically delivers maximum braking pressure in an

emergency or a break away situation — Even Brake works the

most when you need it the most.

• Small and lightweight — ts in virtually all vehicles, with plenty

of “elbow room” under the steering wheel and dash.

• High-capacity air compressor — recovers quicker — ready for

the next stop nearly twice as fast as other systems.

• Includes an emergency break away system

• Adjustable brake pedal clamp — ts brake pedals that other

systems can’t.

• Adjustable monitor lights — bright for daytime driving; dimmer

switch allows the monitor lights to be dimmed for nighttime driving.

• Four independently adjustable feet — for a stable platform in

vehicles with uneven oors.

9400 Even Brake portable proportional braking system

Portable Pre-set Braking

Efcient, effective…and EASY!

The 9700 is a preset system with three braking preferences — light, medium or heavy braking.

Or, the 9700 may be set to activate only in an emergency break away.

The 9700 uses the electrical connections already in place on your towed vehicle (the towed ve-

hicle’s electrical harness) to brake when you brake the motorhome — the same electrical signal

that activates the towed vehicle’s brake lights also activates the 9700.

9700 Features

• Three braking pressure presets: light, medium

or heavy

• Or, the 9700 may be set to activate only in a

break away

• Activates only when the motorhome’s brake

lights illuminate — no false braking!

• Connects and disconnects from the towed

vehicle in just a minute or two

• Includes an LED motorhome monitor for a

visual reference of braking activity

• Includes an emergency break away system

• The 9700 automatically delivers maximum

braking pressure in a break away.

• Automatically protects the towed vehicle’s brakes

• The 9700 releases braking pressure after an

extended period of braking, then activates the

next time the motorhome’s brakes are applied.

• Audible alert at motorhome indicates

extended braking.

• Easily transfers from one towed vehicle to

another, without expensive labor fees.

(Initial installation is typically under an hour,

depending on the vehicles.)

• Recovers quicker — the 9700 is ready for the

next stop nearly twice as fast as other systems

with smaller air compressors.

• Includes an emergency break away system

• Adjustable brake pedal clamp — ts brake

pedals that other systems can’t

• Does not accumulate water in the reservoir tank,

unlike other systems — no puddles on the carpet!

• Four independently adjustable feet — for a

stable platform in vehicles with uneven oors

• Meets U.S. and Canadian braking requirements

8700 InvisiBrake supplemental braking system

A revolutionary innovation in supplemental braking — nothing.

patent pending

Made in the U.S.A.

What is InvisiBrake®?

InvisiBrake is a fully-automatic supplemental braking system that uses the electri-

cal connections already in place on your towed vehicle (the towed vehicle’s electrical

harness) to brake when you brake the motorhome — the same electrical signal that

activates the towed vehicle’s brake lights also activates InvisiBrake.

Features

• Out of sight

InvisiBrake is so small (8¾" x 8¾" x 2¾") it can usually be mounted under the

driver’s seat, under the rear seat, behind interior panels or in the trunk, without

sacricing any of the vehicle’s usable space.

• Set-it-and-forget-it braking

Once it’s installed, InvisiBrake just works. There’s nothing for you to remember

— not even an ‘on’ switch — just plug in the umbilical cord like you always do

and you’re ready to go!

• Charges your battery while towing

InvisiBrake connects directly to the towed vehicle’s battery and trickle-charg-

es the battery during towing — InvisiBrake will never drain the battery.

• Two-stage motorhome monitor

InvisiBrake includes an LED monitor for a visual reference of braking activity; an

audible alert at the motorhome will warn you if the brakes have been on for too

long.

• Activates only when the motorhome’s brake lights illuminate — no false

braking!

• Energizes your power brakes — most braking systems work on a ‘dead’ brake

pedal. InvisiBrake energizes your power brakes so that you have the same power

braking system while towing as you do while driving.

• Works in virtually any towed vehicle with vacuum-powered brakes — in-

cluding hybrids and those with full-time (‘active’) power braking systems.

• Includes an emergency break away system

• Easily adjusts to individual braking preferences — braking pressure is ad-

justable from ve to 100 psi.

• Meets U.S. and Canadian braking requirements

Zip. Zero. Zilch. Nothing. Nada. Nil.

That’s what you have to do to connect and disconnect InvisiBrake.

There’s nothing to take in and out of your towed vehicle and

there’s nothing to push, pull, set, adjust, activate or deactivate.

What could be easier than nothing at all?

1. The controller receives a braking signal from the motorhome.

2. The vacuum created by the controller activates the power brakes.

3. The air cylinder pulls a cable that applies the brakes.

Simple. Reliable. Made to last.

Why is InvisiBrake better?

• Nothing to put in or take out to tow or drive.

• Hidden from view — As the name implies, InvisiBrake is

hidden once installed. There’s no unsightly equipment to

see in your car.

• Simple operation — works intuitively. No fuss, no hassle.

• Charges your battery — trickle-charges the battery while

towing. Never drains your towed vehicle’s battery.

• Power brakes — InvisiBrake engages the power braking system, giving you the

same power brakes whether towing or driving.

• Safety is standard — includes a break away system and a monitor alarm.

How does InvisiBrake work?

Made in the U.S.A.

BrakeMaster…

• …works in virtually any motorhome.

• …works in virtually any towed vehicle with power brakes.

• …easily disconnects from the brake pedal — from towed car to

• …includes a break away emergency braking system.

• …meets U.S. and Canadian braking requirements.

There’s a BrakeMaster for all three types of motorhome brakes…

9060 BrakeMaster with BrakeAway for motorhomes with hydraulic

brakes

9100 BrakeMaster for motorhomes with air or air over hydraulic brakes

9160 BrakeMaster with BrakeAway for motorhomes with air or air over

hydraulic brakes

104 Air cylinder storage bag (for all three BrakeMasters)

8600 BrakeAway emergency braking system (included with 9060 and 9160)

Included with BrakeMaster mod-

els 9060 and 9160, the BrakeAway

towed vehicle emergency braking

system works in conjunction with

your BrakeMaster to bring your

towed vehicle to a controlled stop

should it ever separate from your

motorhome.

The BrakeAway is available sepa-

rately but you must have an installed

BrakeMaster system for it to function.

What is BrakeMaster?

BrakeMaster is ROADMASTER’s ‘direct’

proportional braking system. It connects

directly to the motorhome’s air or

hydraulic braking system for rock-solid,

reliable braking — brake line pressure in

the motorhome controls the brakes in the

towed vehicle.

Because it connects directly to what powers

your motorhome’s brakes, BrakeMaster is

a truly proportional, truly synchronized

braking system — however you brake the

motorhome, BrakeMaster automatically

applies the same pressure. Every time.

Connects and disconnects from the

towed vehicle in under a minute,

without any tools, adjustments or

settings — attach the brake pedal

clamp, secure to the oor or seat

adaptor (see BrakeMaster Ac-

cessories on the next page),

quick-connect the air hose,

and you’re ready to tow.

Weighs just 3¾ pounds

and measures 17 inches

in length — stores

almost anywhere.

Why do I need a Brake-Lite Relay?

What does the Brake-Lite Relay do?

It stops the brake lights from functioning

until the vehicle is started. This prevents the

towed vehicle’s brake signal from overriding

the motorhome’s turn signal.

When you tow without the Brake-Lite Re-

lay, your towed vehicle’s brake lights alone

will work ne. Your turn signals alone will

work ne. But if you’re braking and turn-

ing, the brake light from the towed vehicle

will override the turn signal from the motor-

home and drivers behind you will be unaware you’re about to turn.

Do you need a Brake-Lite Relay?

You only need a Brake-Lite Relay if you’re installing a supplemental towed ve-

hicle braking system that pushes or pulls the brake pedal.

Exceptions –

• With the engine off, step on your brakes. If the brake lights

do not illuminate, you do not need a Brake-Lite Relay.

• If you’re using magnetic tow lights or a bulb and socket

wiring kit, you do not need a Brake-Lite Relay.

• If both your motorhome and towed vehicle are wired for

separate brake and turn signals, you do not need a Brake-Lite Relay.

Note: many newer vehicles have a ‘sleep mode’ which shuts down most electronics,

including the brake lights, when the engine is turned off. However, this sleep mode

isn’t instantaneous — it takes a certain amount of time to kick in. Until that happens,

your vehicle’s brake lights will override the turn signal during towing.

To avoid this you can either: a) install a Brake-Lite Relay; b) wire the vehicle so that

the turn signals function while towing; c) install a bulb and socket kit; or d) wait for

the sleep mode to activate before towing. The option you choose is a function of what

works best for your particular towing combination.

Comes standard with Even Brake®.

• Wiring and components included • Easy-to-follow instructions

(BrakeMaster, Even Brake,

Why do we make stop light switches?

For your peace of mind.

ROADMASTER uses the stop light switch to connect InvisiBrake, BrakeMas-

ter, Even Brake and 9700 motorhome monitors directly to the towed vehicle’s

brake light, so you always know when the brake pedal is depressed and re-

leased. It’s simple — brake light on: monitor on; brake light off: monitor off.

If any particular vehicle’s stop light switch doesn’t work when it’s being

towed, we make one for it that does.

Other manufacturers’ motorhome monitors are connected

to the supplemental braking system. They only tell you when

the supplemental braking system is on or off.

That’s an important distinc-

tion, and here’s why:

Say the braking system is

positioned too far forward, so

it’s riding on the brake pedal.

Every ROADMASTER monitor

will accurately indicate con-

tinuous braking, notifying you

of a problem before you even

drive away. But motorhome

monitors that are connected to

the supplemental braking system will have nothing to report. That would likely

result in brake damage.

Here’s how to tell if you need a stop light switch…

If the brake lights don’t work with your towed vehicle’s ignition key turned

to the “tow” position, you need a stop light switch.

ROADMASTER manufactures stop light switch kits for most popular towed

vehicles; check online at www.roadmasterinc.com for the most current list.

Protection and Storage

The Guardian is crafted from rotationally-molded,

high-impact polyethylene to absorb the impact

of rocks, gravel and road debris — instead of

ricocheting it back at the motorhome.

The Guardian can be attached and removed in sec-

onds, and ts all ROADMASTER tow bars equipped

with quick-disconnects (Note: MX, MS and EZ5 brack-

ets will not accommodate the Guardian). Can also be

used with a tow dolly to help protect your towed ve-

hicle by using Guardian bracket part number 2000-8

(see page 31).

If you tow more than one vehicle, the second ve-

hicle kit has all the mounting hardware necessary to

swap the Guardian from one vehicle to another.

By law, a towed vehicle’s turn signals, run-

ning lights and brake lights must mimic

the motorhome’s. There are three ways to

accomplish that:

1) a wiring kit with diodes;

2) a wiring kit with bulbs and sockets; and

3) magnetic tow lights.

Whichever one you choose, we have a kit with

all the necessary components.

Bulb & socket towed vehicle wiring kits

A major advantage of a bulb and socket kit is that

it bypasses the towed vehicle’s electrical system,

which eliminates the concern of interacting with any

vehicle electronics, or voiding the vehicle manufac-

turer’s warranty.

Note: the towed vehicle’s taillights must have

room for an extra socket and bulb inside the lens

housing. To see if a bulb and socket will t in your

as the LED bulb and socket kit (above), but with in-

candescent bulbs.

LEDs have signicant safety and appearance ad-

vantages over incandescent bulbs — they’re bright-

er, they activate faster and they last longer. Another

advantage is that LEDs draw signicantly less am-

perage and are therefore less of a strain on the elec-

trical system.

This complete kit contains a 27-foot wiring har-

ness, butt connectors, two LED bulbs, two sockets,

zip ties, ring terminals, split loom and installation

instructions.

Flexo-Coil™ and straight power cords

Whatever electrical system you choose, you’ll

need a cord to connect electricity between the

towed vehicle and the motorhome.

ROADMASTER’s power cords are the best — the

wires are water-, oil- and chemical-resistant, and

the plugs are injected with silicone to prevent cor-

rosion.

1466

Hy-Power™ diodes

Diodes are used to tie into the towed vehicle’s brake light, running light

and turn signal wiring, and connect it to the motorhome.

Diodes permit electrical cur-

rent to ow in only one direction

— from the motorhome to the

towed vehicle’s taillights — pre-

venting electrical feedback and

the damage it can cause to both

vehicles’ electronics.

If you’re using a diode, why not

use the best? Hy-Power diodes

have a heavy-duty aluminum heat sink, and each diode is protected

against the elements — all components are housed inside an epoxy-

sealed aluminum case.

Four-pack required for most vehicles. Includes detailed wiring instruc-

tions.

790 one Hy-Power diode 792 two Hy-Power diodes

793 three Hy-Power diodes 794 four Hy-Power diodes

790-25 25-pack Hy-Power diodes (bulk pack)

Park Light diode

Problem — Electrical damage can occur to the towed vehicle if its

headlights are turned on while still connected to the motorhome.

Solution — Use a Park Light diode

to stop any interaction between the two

park light systems, preventing electrical

feedback and electrical damage.

Note: the Park Light diode will not re-

place Hy-Power diodes (see above).

690 Park Light diode

Brite-Lite™ 3-to-2 converter

If you have this — the motorhome has separate brake and turn sig-

nal lights; the towed vehicle has combined brake

and turn signal lights.

You need this — the Brite-Lite converter con-

nects a vehicle with a separate brake and turn sig-

nal system to a vehicle with a combined brake and

turn system, while delivering more current to the

towed vehicle’s brake and turn signal lights for brighter illumination.

732 Brite-Lite 3-to-2 wiring converter

Heavy-duty electrical socket brackets

These brackets are made of thick steel — not lightweight sheet

metal. They hold the towed vehicle’s electrical socket rmly in place,

making it easy to plug and unplug the power cord. Both straight and

90º angled brackets t most electrical sockets, and can be either

welded or bolted in place. Black powder coat nish.

Never disconnect the battery cable to tow!

Eliminate the inconvenience and danger of pulling your battery cable with these

battery disconnects. After the initial installation, your vehicle can be towed and

then driven without any further adjustment to the battery — ever!

Battery disconnects are ideal for any-

one towing a vehicle which must be towed

with the battery cable disconnected.

Both battery disconnects…

• …work on virtually all 12-volt batteries.

• …are pre-assembled for easy installa-

tion.

• …provide a positive current source for

break away systems or other acces-

sories which must be connected to

the battery.

766 Remote Battery Disconnect

• Activates with a remote switch usually located inside the towed vehicle’s passenger

compartment.

765 Automatic Battery Disconnect

• Fully automatic ‘connect-it-and-forget-it’ operation

• Marine-grade solenoid with 200-amp constant duty and 600-amp surge

• Constantly charges the battery (up to full capacity) during towing.

• The motorhome’s headlight switch turns the Automatic Battery Disconnect on and off.

Note: not for use with diesel engine vehicles. To see which vehicles can use the battery

disconnects, visit www.roadmasterinc.com.

ow about if you never had to spend another minute with your face on the

H oor mat, gazing up into a black void, hunting for a miniscule piece of plastic

playing hide and seek?

You don’t have to.

FuseMaster eliminates the necessity of having to remove a fuse for towing,

then having to reinsert it for driving. After it’s installed, you simply ip a switch to

accomplish the same task.

There are several FuseMasters which, collectively, t most vehicles which must

have fuses removed for towing. To determine the FuseMaster you need, call

ROADMASTER (800-669-9690) or click the ‘Vehicle Specic Info’ tab at www.

roadmasterinc.com.

Pulling a Honda CR-V fuse is “…a real PITA.”

“Honda did not give much thought to the location of this fuse. I could not pull

it with their fuse puller, ended up using a long needle nose pliers. To re-install the

fuse is a real feat — you can’t see what you’re doing because your hand blocks

your view. The hassle of pulling and re-installing the fuse is a real PITA.”

— Joe Shigouri, West Jordan, Utah

Don’t do the Fuse Limbo…

…Just ip

a switch!

No more dead battery!

These simple, easy-to-install charge line kits help maintain the vehicle’s battery

charge while in tow, supplying up to 15 amps of current. They also extend battery

life by providing a constant maintenance charge (without overcharging the battery)

during towing. Installation hardware is included.

• Heavy-duty 14-gauge (156-25) and 12-gauge (156-75) wire

• Includes a thermal circuit breaker — no need to hunt down a blown fuse

The leading cause of tow system failure is an “out of level” tow bar — when the

tow bar is at an upward or downward slope. Many of the accessories in this section

will allow you to connect your tow bar at a safe, level height.

Note: longer safety cables or safety cable extensions may be necessary for any ac-

cessory which extends the length of the towing system (see pages 20 and 27).

Hitch Receiver Extensions — 6,000-pound capacity

The hitch receiver extensions provide 7½ and 12

inches, for those towing systems which need a little

more reach.

Quiet Hitch™

Quiet Hitch stops sway and wander before it begins by eliminating any free

play between the receiver and the tow bar (or bike rack, ball mount or whatever

you insert) for a solid, seamless connection. Consistent pressure keeps your

towing combination tracking straight

through crosswinds, curves and sud-

den maneuvers — all with consider-

ably less effort on your part.

Quiet Hitch also reduces tire wear,

as well as wear and tear on the hitch

and the receiver, by eliminating free

play.

Especially effective on towing

combinations with multiple hitch

extensions; also reduces noisy rattle

caused by bike racks or hitch acces-

sories.

All three Quiet Hitches (see below) bolt on in seconds.

061 Quiet Hitch for 2" hitch receivers

062 Quiet Hitch for 2½" hitch receivers

061-125 Quiet Hitch for 1¼" hitch receivers

A spare tire carrier for your motorhome!

Spare yourself!

U.S. patent number

8,720,760

When it comes to a at tire, “I hope it won’t happen to me” isn’t much of

a contingency plan. But that’s all most motorhome owners have to work

with. Because most motorhomes don’t carry a spare.

So spare yourself and get a spare tire carrier — before Murphy’s Law kicks in

and you nd out just how long it can take to nd a spare tire 30 miles north of

Phoenix. On a Sunday. And how much you’re going to pay for it.

ROADMASTER’s spare tire carrier is the proactive approach to a at tire —

• With a ready-to-go spare, Roadside Assistance can get you back on the road

quickly.

• Carrying your own spare allows you to control the cost.

• You have a place to put your spare, without taking up any valuable cargo space.

• Comes with a two-inch receiver hitch for a tow bar, hitch rack or other hitch-

mounted accessory.

• The carrier can be lowered to either side

for engine access or ladder clearance.

• Powder coated for durability and corrosion

resistance

• Bolts into the receiver to help prevent rattle

Specications

• For 16", 16.5", 19.5", 22.5", 24" and 24.5"

What do our customers say?

“I’ve been using your Quiet Hitch on my Suburban hitch now for almost a year. Very

nice product! I trailer our various boats about 60,000 miles per year shing bass tour-

naments and taping our ‘Real Fishing’ TV series. It’s so nice to keep the rattle out of the

hitch assembly. In fact I just bought two more in Florida last week for two other of our

tow vehicles.”

Dual tires out of sight? Out of reach? Out of air?

Safe travel begins with safe tires.

• On average, one out of every four vehicles on the road today

is being driven with under-inated tires.

• A tire can lose up to half its pressure without appearing to be

under-inated.

• Tires can lose one to two psi per month in normal conditions.

• Driving with under-inated tires is the number one cause of

tire wear and catastrophic blowouts.

Suspension Solutions

Motorhome manufacturers make your RV “livable.”

We help make your motorhome “drivable.”

Very few people would say they bought their motorhome (or truck, van or SUV)

for the suspension. For most of us, the suspension is out of sight and out of mind —

even though your driving performance, safety and comfort are all riding on those

components.

The primary benets of ROADMASTER suspension components are:

• Anti-sway bars — virtually eliminate ‘body roll’ (the vehicle rolls from side to side,

especially during cornering). Anti-sway bars stabilize the vehicle, which keeps it

level through crosswinds, as well as dramatically improving overall handling.

• Steering stabilizers — front tire blow out protection. Stabilizers also automatically

compensate for oversteer caused by pot holes, rut tracks and other unfavorable

road conditions.

• Trac bars — drastically reduce ‘wander’ (the steering feels loose, making it

difcult to keep the vehicle in a straight line).

We’re the suspension experts.

Do you need a custom suspension component?

Every “yes” to the following questions is a “yes” for an anti-sway bar, a steering

stabilizer and/or a trac bar…

• Does the vehicle “roll” when cornering?

• Does driving for an extended period of time leave you physically exhausted?

• Is your rig all over the road — can’t keep it between the lines?

• Would you lose control if one of the front tires blew out?

• Does the steering wheel have a mind of its own?

• Do passing trucks and crosswinds rock your vehicle back and forth?

• Is driving a ‘white knuckle’ experience?

Which component is right for you?

ROADMASTER designs, engineers and manufactures anti-sway bars, steering

stabilizers and trac bars. They work in concert with the other components of your

suspension system to add stability and control.

The chart on this page identies the primary benets of aftermarket suspension

products. Each one has value — for a specic application. Use the chart to make

an informed, educated decision about what aftermarket suspension product(s) will

enhance your vehicle’s stability, handling and maneuverability.

Reex helps you handle…

• Front tire blow out — when you blow out a front tire, your vehicle will make an abrupt turn

toward that tire, causing you to veer into oncoming trafc or off the road. The stabilizer reacts in-

stantaneously to bring the vehicle back to center.

• Crosswinds and passing trafc — works to keep your steering centered and prevents over-

steering to help control your vehicle more effectively.

• Road fatigue — helps you stop ghting the steering wheel for control. The stabilizer keeps the

steering wheel centered — not you.

• Rut tracking — ruts cause you to oversteer. With the Reex steering stabilizer on board, your

reactions become easier, eliminating overcompensation when steering out of a rut.

• Rut edging — when your tire drops off the edge of the pavement, it can startle even the most

careful driver. The Reex steering stabilizer keeps you going straight — helping you control the

vehicle until you’re back on the road.

• Pot holes and debris — with the Reex steering stabilizer in place, the motorhome will stay

straight and go in the direction you want, even when you bounce through a pot hole or other dan-

gerous road condition.

What do our customers say?

“I had a Reex steering stabilizer installed, and the difference was night and day — my class C

motorhome handles like a sports car. The stabilizer keeps the steering centered, no matter what

the road throws at me. Ruts, bumps and hairpin curves are no problem. My steering wheel doesn’t

belong to potholes any more. It belongs to me.”

— Jerry Miller, Portland, Oregon

To see if a Reex steering stabilizer is available for your vehicle call us (800-669-9690)

or visit www.roadmasterinc.com.

Reex steering stabilizers are a safety feature for Class A and C motorhomes,

SUVs, vans and emergency vehicles. Tempered steel springs, which are at-

tached to the tie rods and undercarriage, automatically compensate for

oversteer caused by pot holes, rut tracks and other unfavorable road conditions,

as well as crosswinds and passing 18-wheelers.

The springs react instantaneously to bring the vehicle back to center.

Does your motor-

home vibrate from

side to side?

Are ‘wandering,’

‘rut tracking’ and

‘lazy steering’ a

problem?

Tired and fatigued

trying to keep in line

going down the road?

Davis TruTrac bars link the chassis to the front axle, eliminating

excessive axle side play, without affecting normal up-and-down

suspension travel. The result is precise, predictable handling. The

benets are an immediate improvement in both vehicle perfor-

mance and safety, as well as increased driver comfort — more

positive control means less driver fatigue.

Each TruTrac bar comes complete with all mounting hardware,

and installs using pre-drilled factory holes — no drilling or weld-

ing required. They will not interfere with original equipment or

affect any factory warranty.

Davis TruTrac bars are available for Ford F53 chassis (V8 and

V10), all Workhorse motorhome chassis (W16, W18, W20, W22

and W24) and Kodiak 45/5500 chassis. They use polyurethane

bushings for maximum stability and longevity.

What do our customers say?

“My F53 chassis would vibrate so bad that it shook the whole

motorhome. The only way to stop the vibration was to slow down

to 20 mph — which almost got me rear-ended twice. Finally my

wife told me, ‘I’m not riding in that motorhome any more.’

A mechanic told me about Davis TruTrac bars. I had one in-

stalled and the vibrations stopped immediately. I drove that mo-

torhome for another 150,000 miles (with my wife back on board)

and it was solid as a rock.

Buying that Davis TruTrac bar was the best move I ever made.”

A better anti-sway bar.

RSS anti-sway bars are built to offer

signicantly more resistance to sway than stock bars…

• Bigger is better — RSS anti-sway bars have a thicker diameter

than stock bars (often, a quarter to three-eighths of an inch more).

Each incremental increase in diameter has an exponential effect on

performance — on average, torsional roll stiffness is increased by 30

percent with every 1/8" increase in diameter. In plain English — RSS

anti-sway bars offer up to 90 percent more resistance to sway.

• A high-grade alloy — RSS anti-sway bars are made of 4140 “chro-

moly” steel (a chrome and molybdenum alloy) which is considerably

stronger and more durable than the standard spring steel (a 1020

grade) used in many stock anti-sway bars.

• A better pivot point — RSS anti-sway bars have polyurethane

bushings, which, unlike the rubber used in stock bushings, is impervi-

ous to gas, oil and ozone corrosion, is more resistant to abrasion, and

doesn’t buckle under heavier load weights.

Anti-Sway Bars

Why fight it?

Does your suspension

have the best of you?…beat

you down?…control you?

Driving your RV should be an enjoy-

able experience. And it can be. Add-

ing a set of RSS anti-sway bars to your

suspension has an immediate effect

on stability and cornering control.

Does your motorhome (or SUV, pickup truck or van) handle like the Queen

Mary? Does it pitch and roll with every gust of wind or passing semi, or list to

port or starboard on the curves, or waddle over speed bumps, railroad tracks

and driveways?

Well, it shouldn’t. As a matter of fact, motorhomes can be made to handle

just like what they are — motor vehicles — with two aftermarket upgrades.

Upgrading your shock absorbers will control up and down motion. But the

best shocks in the world won’t affect side to side motion (the “Queen Mary

effect,” commonly called “body roll” or “sway”) by one iota.

The solution to sway is in the suspension.

Adding a set of custom anti-sway bars to your suspension system will have

the same effect on sway as a good set of shocks has on up and down motion

— there’s an immediate improvement in stability and tracking, especially on

the curves.

For many motorhome owners, this

is an empowering experience. What

was beyond their control, just yester-

day, is suddenly within it — cornering

with condence, quicker maneuvering

and a remarkably level ride over un-

even terrain — all without launching

the dishes out of the cupboard.

And even after eight or 10 hours at the wheel they arrive fresh, instead of

fatigued, which means they can start enjoying the Grand Canyon, the Grand

Tetons or the grandkids right away.

Anti-Sway Bars

About RSS anti-sway bars…

RSS currently manufactures more than 150 different anti-sway bars for

large vehicles such as pickup trucks, vans and SUVs, and on up to full-size

motorhomes. Whether you’re driv-

ing a Ford F350 or a 40-foot Class

A motorhome, we make an anti-

sway bar for you.

And chances are, the next ambu-

lance or rescue vehicle you see will

have an RSS anti-sway bar — RSS

anti-sway bars make it safer and

easier to drive an emergency ve-

hicle at high speeds, and they also

hold it level, so that both patient

and paramedic are on a more stable platform.

Which means that throughout the country, you’ll nd a wide variety of

vehicles already equipped with RSS anti-sway bars.

Each RSS anti-sway bar is designed as a custom t, for a specic chassis.

RSS engineering designs take into consideration chassis and axle manufac-

turers’ specications (your warranty will not be affected), and to avoid any

interaction or conict between the anti-sway bar and popular accessory

add-ons, whether or not they’re presently on your vehicle.

RSS suspension products are vehicle-specic. To nd the anti-sway bar

for your vehicle: visit www.roadmasterinc.com or call 800-669-9690.

RSS anti-sway bar benets

• Safety — body roll forces more weight to the outside tires, reducing trac-

tion. An anti-sway bar distributes the weight evenly over all the wheels.

With more rubber on the road, the vehicle is more stable and responsive.

Sway can force the driver into a series of oversteer reactions, especially

during cornering. Compensating for sway at the steering wheel is danger-

ous at any speed.

• Comfort — constantly having to correct for sway is not only dangerous,

it’s also physically exhausting. RSS anti-sway bars virtually eliminate sway

caused by crosswinds and weight shift. So even after hours at the wheel, the

driver arrives fresh, instead of fatigued.

What do our customers say?

“I noticed a difference as soon as I stepped into the motorhome — there

was no rocking movement. During a recent trip we encountered substantial

crosswinds. With the RSS anti-sway bar, I estimate our motorhome’s sway

was reduced by 90%. We don’t feel anything now when a tractor trailer

blows by us. I’m 100% satised — everyone should experience the benet

of this product.”

— Johnny Singleton, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

“After installing the (anti-sway) bar, the truck handles like a Ferrari! Unbe-

lievable how this has changed the unfavorable handling characteristics into

a nely-tuned, very user-friendly vehicle with exceptional road manners.

After the installation, I test-drove doing hard swerves…like being on rails! I

highly recommend adding these to your chassis.”

— Carl Sommer, Fort Wayne, Indiana

“…These products WORK and are worth every penny. To have peace of

mind and feel in control of your coach is a fantastic feeling.”

Glossary of towing terms

binding — When the tow bar is difcult to detach because of exces-

sive pressure, the tow bar is said to be “bound.” All-Terrain tow bars

(see pages 2 and 3) have a patented latching mechanism which virtu-

ally eliminates this problem.

car-mounted — a tow bar designed to be mounted and stored on the

towed vehicle.

curb weight — the total weight of a vehicle and all necessary uids

(water, coolant, oil and a full tank of gas) when not loaded with either

passengers or cargo.

diode — Diodes allow the towed vehicle’s brake and turn signal lights

to mimic the motorhome’s (which is required by law) without damaging

the towed vehicle’s electrical system. They allow current to ow in only

one direction, eliminating electrical feedback, which could damage

the towed vehicle’s wiring, fuses or other electrical components.

Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (or “GVWR”) — how much weight a

vehicle is designed to carry. The GVWR includes the net weight of the

vehicle, plus the weight of passengers, fuel, cargo and any additional

accessories. GVWR is a safety standard used to prevent overloading.

hitch (or “receiver hitch”) — the two-inch receiver on the back of the

motorhome where your tow bar connects.

motorhome-mounted — a tow bar designed to be mounted and

stored on the motorhome.

mounting bracket (a.k.a. “bracket”) — connects the towed vehicle to

the tow bar. All mounting brackets are bolted to the subframe of the

towed vehicle.

proportional braking — A supplemental braking system which

brakes at the same time and intensity as the motorhome is called “pro-

portional.” There are two proportional systems in this catalog — a

direct system (BrakeMaster) and a portable system (Even Brake).

removable bracket arms — All tow bar mounting brackets have

arms which extend out from the vehicle. ROADMASTER’s ‘hidden’

brackets (see page 7) have arms that can be easily removed, making

the bracket virtually invisible.

quick-disconnects — the connection point between the tow bar and

the tow bar mounting brackets. These components allow the tow bar to

be quickly connected and disconnected. There is one quick-disconnect

(“QD”) for the driver’s side and one for the passenger side. Quick-

disconnects also allow for the mounting of accessories such as the

Guardian.

quick links — used to attach the safety cables. They look like one link

in a chain, and have a nut which can be threaded up or down to open

or close the link.

safety cables — Required by law, safety cables connect the towed ve-

hicle to the towing vehicle. They are a secondary safety device to hold

the vehicles together if the towing system separates for any reason.

stinger — the part of a tow bar that inserts into the motorhome’s re-

ceiver hitch. A hitch pin and clip secure the tow bar to the motorhome.

supplemental braking — an independent braking system that

brakes the towed vehicle in tandem with the motorhome.

“After installing the Reex stabilizer bars, the truck han-

dles like a Ferrari! Unbelievable how this has changed the

unfavorable handling characteristics into a nely-tuned,

very user-friendly vehicle with exceptional road manners.

After the installation I test-drove, doing hard swerves…

like being on rails!”

— Carl Sommer, Fort Wayne, Indiana

“I swerved to avoid a collision with a truck in the wrong

lane, and veered off the road into the brush. I could see

my Ford Explorer in the motorhome’s rear view camera,

whipping back and forth. I thought for sure it was going

to roll on its side. I know a little about physics, and I was

amazed that your Falcon 2 tow bar held it in place. You

folks make a damn good product.”

— Walt Leutwyler, Dallas, Texas

“With your easy-to-follow instructions I had no trouble

at all installing your tow bar mounting bracket on my Nis-

san Versa. The installation was perfect. I can’t say enough

about the quality of the product, the excellent hardware

package, and again, the excellent instructions. I wouldn’t

have attempted the installation without your instructions.”

— Monty Kelley, Modesto, California
