Roadmaster Tow Bar Base Plate - 1187-3A

  • Roadmaster
  • Removable Draw Bars
  • Hitch Pin Attachment
  • Partially Hidden

Designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, direct-connect brackets install onto your vehicle's frame to provide attachment points for a motor-home-mounted tow bar. Front arms are easily removable when not in use.


Features:

  • Hidden bracket design - drawbars are easily removable via 2 pins
  • Computer-cut, all-steel construction provides exceptional strength
  • Black powder coat finish is durable and corrosion resistant
  • Simple installation - no welding
    • Custom base plates ensure a perfect fit for your vehicle
  • No crossbar needed - faster hookup and sleeker appearance
    • Crossbar not required because these direct-connect base plates are designed for strong, heavy-duty applications
  • Compatible with all Roadmaster tow bars that slide into trailer hitch receivers
  • Instructions and mounting hardware included
  • Made in the USA
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty


Note: Direct-connect base plates will work only with the Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch, such as the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, and Falcon 2. These base plates will not work with tow bars that require a hitch ball.


Direct-connect brackets do not require a crossbar because of the heavy-duty nature of your vehicle's frame. Thus, installation is simplified, the hookup process is faster, and the total appearance is enhanced.


Note: The EZ Hook safety cables included with Roadmaster's Sterling tow bars will not work with direct-connect base plates. These cables connect to an anchor plate on the Quick Disconnect crossbar, which will not be present when you are using these base plates.


The drawbars, or front arms, on the direct-connect base plate kit are simple to mount and remove, easily securing with pins. Once the drawbars have been removed, the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. On most automobiles, the brackets are mounted within the grille, where they remain not only unseen, but protected from scrapes and scuffs as well.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2012 Scion xB Behind and RV
    To flat tow your 2012 Scion xB behind an RV you will need the base plates and tow bar like you mentioned as well as safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking. For a tow bar compatible with Roadmaster base plates # 1187-1A (with arm height at approximately 13 inches) I recommend the Falcon 2 # RM-520. This tow bar makes hooking up and disconnecting easier when you are not on perfectly level ground or straight. I have linked a video review for you. The video explains how the tow...

  • Can A 2008 Toyota Scion xB With Manual Transmission Be Flat Towed
    Hey Todd, Yes, your 2008 Scion xB would be able to be flat towed with all four wheels down since you have a manual transmission. To do so you'll need the following components: Baseplate: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # 1187-3A. Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates # e74ZR. This comes with safety cables and has a built in rise/drop to help level the tow bar between the two vehicles. You may still need an adapter though if your tow...

  • What Roadmaster Base Plate will Fit My 2010 Scion XB with Demco Commander Tow Bar?
    Hello Michael, Great question. If you want to go with a Roadmaster Base Plate on your 2010 Scion xB you will want the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # 1187-3A. Then in order to use your Demco Commander Tow Bar you will also need the Universal Triple-Lug Tow Bar Adapter for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates # RM62ZR. I included an image for you to take a look at just to make sure your tow bar has the right connectors on them, sometime there will be adapters...

  • Recommended Flat-Towing Components For 2014 Scion xB
    We do offer base plates designed to fit your 2014 Scion xB if it has no foglights. I do recommend you contact your dealership to see if flat-towing your Scion is allowed or what restrictions there are when towing. I actually pulled up a copy of the owner's manual and there is a second printing as of March 2014. From what I can tell the manual transmission xB can be flat-towed with all 4 wheels down. If you find you can flat-tow your xB, there are 5 items you need to properly tow a vehicle....

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2008 Scion xB Behind a Motor Home with Stowmaster Tow Bar
    The Roadmaster MX base plates # 1187-3A will only work with Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver such as the Falcon 2 # RM-520. The Stowmaster tow bar couples to a ball so would not work. If you already have a Stowmaster tow bar you can use base plates # 1187-1A instead for your 2008 Scion xB and they will work together. You will also need safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow the xB. For safety cables I recommend # RM-643. The coiled...

  • Is Roadmaster Base Plate Kit 1187-3A For 2015 Scion xB Compatible With Roadmaster Falcon Tow Bar
    The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # 1187-3A you were looking at for your 2015 Scion xB will work perfectly with the Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain # RM-522 you have. To complete your flat tow setup you will need wiring, a supplemental braking system, and safety cables if you do not already have them. I recommend the following parts: Wiring: Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Wire to 6-Wire Straight Cord # RM-152-98146-7 Supplemental...
