If you want your setup to keep a clean, factory look when you’re not towing, this base plate makes it easy. The hidden design keeps brackets from protruding past the front of the vehicle, and the removable arms twist off in seconds for a seamless finish. When the arms are out, receiver covers plug into the openings to keep out dirt and debris while giving the front end a tidy appearance.
Getting ready to tow doesn’t have to take long. Each arm slides into the receiver, rotates until it locks, and secures with a simple pull pin. When you’re done towing, pull the pin, twist to release, and remove the arms—it’s that straightforward. The design makes solo connections quick and repeatable, whether you’re setting up at home or on the road.
This base plate bolts directly to the chassis using the included hardware—no welding required. Its sturdy steel construction spreads towing forces evenly across the frame to reduce stress on suspension components. The powder-coated finish helps resist rust and corrosion through seasons of travel, keeping your towing setup strong for long hauls.
You can pair this base plate with Blue Ox tow bars right out of the box for a secure connection every time. It also adapts for use with Roadmaster tow bars using adapter # RM-031 or # RM-031-5 and with Demco tow bars using adapter # DM9523041 (each sold separately). An integrated mounting point lets you attach an electrical connector bracket (sold separately) so your front wiring stays organized and ready to plug in.
The bracket distance is 34 inches center-to-center and sits 19 inches off the ground when installed. Those measurements help you check tow bar height and plan your high-low adapter if needed to keep your system level. It’s a straightforward setup backed by a 3-year warranty for added peace of mind.

It has been excellent. Fit,finish, and instructions were very good. Also, I have used a Blue Ox towbar for many years. Very satisfied with it and your base plate combination. I believe it is the best choice on the market.
