  If you want to easily hookup and disconnect the Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar, # RM-020, from Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit, # 1012-1, then I strongly recommend using the quick disconnects.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2000 Chevy S-10 Behind an RV
  Curt Tow Bar # C19745 isn't vehicle specific so you can use it on your 2000 Chevy S-10. It comes with universal bumper brackets that will need to mount to a flat, metal section of the vehicle bumper which does require modifying/reinforcing the bumper/vehicle. This tow bar is fine for moving vehicles short distances but as a regular use tow bar it is not a good solution. If you will be towing the S-10 long distances behind an RV then I recommend a custom flat towing set up. For that you...
