This base plate is built stout with durable steel and precision welds that give confidence mile after mile. The sturdy design spreads towing forces evenly across the chassis to help prevent stress on your suspension. When you’re pulling valuable gear behind your motorhome, knowing your connection point is this solid brings real peace of mind.
No welding required here—this kit bolts directly to your vehicle’s chassis using the supplied mounting hardware. The clear layout and fixed draw bars make for a direct fit, so you can get it installed without fabrication work. For anyone who likes to handle their own setup, it’s a clean, no-fuss approach that gets you ready to tow without extra steps.
Even though the arms are fixed, the crossbar support beam blends in well with the bumper. The low-profile reinforcements keep things looking neat up front and avoid a bulky appearance when you’re not towing. It’s simple and functional, giving your vehicle a streamlined look while staying ready for travel.
This base plate pairs directly with Blue Ox tow bars to form a secure and dependable connection every time. If you’re running a Roadmaster or Demco tow bar instead, adapters (RM-031, RM-031-5, or DM9523041, sold separately) let you connect easily without changing your whole setup. With brackets spaced 24" apart and a bracket height of 14", it’s easy to plan your hitch alignment for a level tow.
Every part of this setup is built for weather resistance. The steel construction is powder coated to help ward off corrosion from road grime, moisture, and long-haul use. You’ll get lasting strength that holds up through every season of towing without worrying about flaking paint or rust spots showing up later on.

The base plate has preformed flawlessly, we towed our Jeep Cherokee about 11,500 miles during a 5 month trip we experienced one Emergency Stop without a problem.
