Roadmaster Tow Bar Base Plate - 1556-3

  • 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.

Do you have a question about this Tow Bar Base Plate?
  • Recommended Tow Bar Wiring and Supplemental Braking System for 2007 Honda Odyssey
    Officially the 2007 Honda Odyssey is not towable, however many companies give the disclaimer that a large number of customers are towing it with the emergency towing procedures outlined in your owners manual without issue. If you choose to do so you will be outside of any warranty and taking the risk. If you choose to use the Blue Ox Acclaim Tow Bar # BX4330 you asked this from with the included safety chains and the baseplates # BX2237, then you will need wiring, a supplemental braking...

  • Correct Roadmaster Base Plate for 2008 Honda Odyssey
    The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # 1556-3 is indeed a confirmed fit for a 2008 Honda Odyssey so long as it does not have factory tow package transmission cooler. This can then be used with any motorhome mounted tow bar like the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar part # RM-676.

  • Determine if 2010 Honda Odyssey Has Tow Package for Install of Roadmaster Base Plate
    Hey Michael, yes the Roadmaster base plate kit part # 1556-3 is correct fit for your 2010 Honda Odyssey but it needs to not have the factory transmission cooler which would be located in front of the AC condenser. The tow package would mean there is a trailer hitch at the rear of the vehicle as well as trailer wiring. You can also look it up with the VIN of the vehicle at a Honda dealer or if you had original window sticker.
