When you’re not towing, you don’t want brackets sticking out from the front end. This base plate keeps things clean with a completely hidden design. The removable arms twist out easily, leaving behind just smooth receiver openings that stay protected with the included covers. It keeps dirt and debris out and gives your setup a finished look when the arms are off.
Hooking up your tow bar shouldn’t feel like a chore. Each arm slides into the receiver and locks in place with a simple twist and pin pull. When you’re done towing, just reverse the motion and store the arms. The twist-lock attachment makes connecting fast whether you’re in your driveway or at the campsite.
This kit bolts securely to the chassis using included hardware—no welding needed. The sturdy steel construction spreads towing forces evenly across the frame to help reduce stress on the suspension. It’s powder coated to resist rust and corrosion, so it holds up mile after mile on long trips.
You don’t have to give up your current tow bar to run this base plate. It pairs directly with Blue Ox tow bars for a reliable connection. If you’re using Roadmaster or Demco gear, it’s adaptable with specific adapters (sold separately). Integrated mounting points make it easy to attach an electrical connector bracket so your wiring stays tidy and accessible.
Every detail on this base plate is built for safe, consistent towing. It has a bracket spacing of 19" and a bracket height of 19-1/2", giving you clear reference points to plan your setup. The design is simple but solid—just bolt it on, line it up, and you’re ready for thousands of dependable towing miles without extra fabrication or fuss.
