• What Is Difference Between Roadmaster Tow Defender # RM-4700 And # RM-4750
  The difference between the # RM-4700 and the # RM-4750 is being able to use them with your base plates. If you have the crossbar on your base plates you will need part # RM-4700.

It is compatible with the base plates that have a crossbar and will not work if you have other style base plates.

  The main difference between the Roasmaster # RM-521453-5 (previously known as EZ5) and # RM-521453-4 (previously known as EZ4) base plate kits for your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, is that the RM-521453-5 is a Direct-Connect style, meaning your motor-home mounted tow bar attaches directly to the base plate's removable arms, without the need for a crossbar.
