Roadmaster Tow Bar Base Plate - 249-6

  • 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


Notes:

  • 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.
  • Fishwire (C58400 - sold separately) are required for complete installation.

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 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4
    When flat towing a vehicle, there are 5 components that you will need. First, you will need to equip the tow vehicle with base plates. For the 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4, you can use Blue Ox base plates, # BX1949, if you do not have a Sport model. If you do have a Sport model, use Roadmaster Base plates, # 249-6. You will then need a compatible tow bar. For the Blue Ox base plates, I recommend the Acclaim Tow Bar, # BX4330, which comes with safety cables. For the Roadmaster base plates,...

  • Complete Tow Bar System for 2000 Dodge 3/4 Ton
    My recommendation for towing your 2000 Dodge Ram 3/4 ton 4x4 pickup with a diesel would be the Roadmaster Blackhawk 2 All-Terrain Non-Binding Heavy Duty Tow Bar, 10,000 lbs, part # RM-422, and the Roadmaster MX Base Plate Kit, part # 249-6. This tow bar and base plate kit are especially designed to tow vehicles with heavy duty frames and the tow bar installs easily into a 2 inch receiver hitch. You will need to be careful of the amount of weight you put in the pickup due to the weight...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 2WD Manual Transmission
    You can flat tow your 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 2WD with a manual transmission but you'll need a base plate kit first installed on the front of the truck with a kit like the Roadmaster MX Base Plate kit part # 249-6. Next you'll need a higher capacity tow bar like the Roadmaster BlackHawk part # RM-422 which has a 10k capacity and due to it's telescoping arms is very easy to connect/disconnect. For safety cables you can use # RM-643. The coiled design helps keep the cables off of the ground. For...
