I have a Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain tow bar with a Roadmaster base plate. I have a 4 padlocks from Roadmaster that are keyed alike. The padlocks are American brand. The tow bar is also locked to the MH. I just want to make sure all the equipment stays hooked up to each other. I have the padlock key along with the Jeep keys so they are always in my pocket when traveling.
My wife is a great help in hitching up the toad. We both do the same step at the same time on opposite sides. We have it down to a routine. She is checking on me and I'm also watching her to make sure it is done correctly. Then once it is hitched we both look it over to make sure all things are hooked up properly and the locks are in place and locked. Then I install the RVI2 brake in the Jeep and check it out. I'll then go to the MH and have my wife watch the tow lights to make sure they are working properly. Then I well pull the MH ahead a little while my wife watches to make sure everything is ok. Then when we pull out I have my rear camera on watching the toad to make sure all is ok.
I feel we have done everything we can to ensure that it is hitched up correctly and we are ready to go.
