Roadmaster Tow Bar Base Plate - 1188-3

  • Removable Draw Bars
  • Roadmaster
  • 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.

Do you have a question about this Tow Bar Base Plate?
  • Recommended Flat Towing Set Up for a 2010 Toyota Corolla
    Yes, you can flat tow a 2010 Toyota Corolla but only if it has a manual transmission. If you do not have a manual transmission you will want to use a dolly like item # DM9713093. To flat tow your 2010 Toyota Corolla you will need the following parts: Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643 Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # 1188-3 Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil...

  • Recommendations for Towing 2013 Toyota Corolla S Behind Motorhome
    For your 2013 Toyota Corolla, as long as it has a manual transmission you can flat tow it. If that is the case I recommend the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms for 2013 Toyota Corolla # 1188-3. Then for a tow bar I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs # RM-520 with safety cables # RM-643. Then for your tow bar wiring I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. The supplemental...

  • Roadmaster MX Base Plate Kit for a 2004 Hummer H2
    The part you selected # 1188-3 does not fit the Hummer H2. For the 2004 Hummer H2 you can use the # 2506-3 base plate kit. The MX Series is specifically designed for vehicles with heavy-duty frames, like yours, and would be a good choice. These brackets do not require a cross bar either which simplifies installation and makes hook-up faster. The MX base plates require a Class III or heavier receiver hitch on the tow vehicle and can not be used with a hitch ball like other base plate kits....

  • Ready Brute II Tow Bar Compatible Base Plate Recommendation for 2012 Toyota Corolla
    Manual transmission equipped models of the 2012 Toyota Coralla are capable of being flat towed. The cool thing about the Ready Brute Elite II tow bar is that it's compatible with the Roadmaster # 1188-3 direct connect base plates without needing to use an adapter. That integrated braking feature is pretty cool, too! In addition to the base plates and tow bar, you'll also need safety cables like # RM-643 and a wiring solution like # RM-15247. If the 15.5 inch installed height of the...
