Not everything you need
This tow bar does not come with the safety chains or u-bolt attachments for either vehicle. Finding and buying safety chains is no big deal but I have yet to be able to find the 4- 7/16 grade 2 u-bolts at any store or online. Why didn't they just send them with it or weld the chain attachments on? If you look at the picture you can see where they go. I called customer service and they said that was a different part # 7024800 which includes the chains and u-bolts but and could not order it from them. Their technical support number has been disconnected and one of the customer service numbers goes to a travel agency. I finally found the U-bolt kit with chains on-line at Auto Zone but it was another $70

    Great, in the right situation
    Easy to assemble and use. It is important to note that it attaches to the numbers of the towed car via bolts, so the towed car either needs to have them predrilled or you will have to drill them. My car had a brush hairs on the front that had holes that worked. I also cut a towel to use between the number/brush guard and tow bar to prevent scratching.

    Not all parts included
    Not all of the installation parts ate include. It does not tell you until you open it up and read the instructions what parts you need on top of the tow bar. The instructions tell you several other things that you NEED to install. It e old be nice if the other parts you needed to instal were disclosed. In the ad itself. Or at least list what all you need to do a complete installation. That way you would be nice for this tow bar. The instructions tell you to have it installed by a professional tow bar installer.

    over all the tow bar works well.
    to whoever: I should have been told that the connectors to the car where not included . I had to have them fabricated witch cost me another 100.00 where as I could have bought them along with the tow bar and saved a lot of money. please consider adding the coupling along with this product or let the consumer know it is not a complete product

    Fulfills it's purpose
    Works fine for me. nothing fancy. Tow bar doesn't include the U-bolts to connect the safety chains....it should. these U-bolts are difficult to find and it is illegal to use a tow bar without the safety chains. Make it easier on your customers by including the U-bolts and adding $10~$12 to the price....better yet, include the safety chains also. At the very least you should make these required items available in the stores and online. Customers would be more satisfied buying a product complete and ready to put into service without the additional hassle of finding these required add-ons.

    Good deal
    A good two bar for the price understanding that to complete an installation a safety chain kit is also required. If the two were packaged as a complete kit would be ideal.

    First, know how you are going to attach it.
    This tow bar was simple to put together. It seems heavy enough for general, light duty towing. However, make sure you can attach it to the vehicle you want to tow. I towed a light, classic car. It was no problem to make a bracket to work with its bumper and the tow bar. It could be extremely difficult to attach this tow bar to many vehicles. The tow bar only comes with brackets to the front of the towed vehicle's bumper: No bolts to go through the bumper. No brackets for behind the bumper. Remember to buy a towing light kit or the police will not be happy - nor should they be.

    Works, but noisey
    I purchased this tow bar to tow my son's (Heavily modified) Suzuki Samurai up to the off road park behind my Chevy Blazer. The tow bar was easy enough to mount (drilling required) with the included hardware. It has a two piece arm construction. There is a solid metal insert that goes between the two arm pieces to add rigidity to them, but the insert remains slightly movable inside the arm pieces, creating a little slop in the tow bar. Because there is no brake control on the towed vehicle, the tow bar "clunks" and jerks a little on stops and starts. Probably not noticeable behind a large tow vehicle like a motor home, but is noticeable behind my Blazer. Probably would be better if inserts fit tighter into arm sections and bolts would squeeze it down to make a tight fit (no slop). Other than a slight "clunk" every now and then, it works fine. This tow bar is rated for 5,000 lbs. I believe this would be extremely noisy with a lot of jerkiness trying to tow that amount of weight.
