When you’re not towing, this setup keeps things tidy. The crossbar-style hidden brackets mount to the frame, and the visible drawbars come off with two hitch pins. Once the arms are removed, the remaining brackets sit tucked away within the grille, out of sight and protected from scrapes. It’s a clean, factory look without bulky hardware hanging off the front.
The computer-cut, all-steel build gives this base plate kit serious strength. Every weld and cut is made for precise alignment, spreading towing forces evenly through the frame. The black powder coat finish resists corrosion and helps it hold up through miles of travel and changing weather. It’s the kind of solid feel you want when you’re counting on your setup day after day.
No welding or special tools needed here. The brackets are custom-cut for an exact fit and bolt directly to the frame using the included mounting hardware and instructions. The design lines up smoothly with factory points to make getting everything square a lot easier—something DIY installers appreciate when tackling the job at home.
This kit is built to integrate cleanly into a full flat-towing setup. It’s compatible with Roadmaster tow bars when used with the quick-disconnect crossbar (910021-00, sold separately). That connection system makes it easy to hook up or disconnect your tow bar when you’re setting out or parking for the night—reliable and simple every time.

The #118-3 is a perfect fit on my 1995 Geo Tracker. When you pull off the removable arms you would never know they are there. The Quality is very good easy to put on all you have to do is drill 4 holes the tube on the base plate fits into the tube on the frame of the tracker and with the 2 bolts it is a solid fit. I was worried about the plate nut getting it inside of the frame but it went in easy when you put it over the frame tube and use a thin piece of metal to slide it in place. I’m very happy with it. I probably could of got it on without taking my bumper off but with only 4 bolts holding my bumper on it made it easier
Excellent support and service.
Awesome service. Installing it this wee kend.....

Excellant service all the way around. I was informed as to what I needed, they checked what was in stock and had my order to me in 2 business days. Their care and commitment to seeing the process thru was outstanding. I would highly recommend etrailer.com.
i was surprisingly impressed with how easy and simple the installation of the base plate and wiring was. i installed this on a customers vehicle and will use your products again.
Towing adapter for Chev Colorado And trailer hitch Both videos EX !!! :-)
Package came 2days early!!! It appears everything was in the package! Already started to install the brackets! The instructions are pretty good but I found out I needed to pull the grill back which made it easier to get to the top number bolts!
Never used it due to wife’s illness
I ordered a Falcon II tow bar, Base plate for a GMC Canyon, Demco Stay-n-play braking system and safety cables. worked exactly as it should, directions were easy to follow. All hardware was included. This system allowed us to tow our Canyon 10K miles around the country. super easy to use and I was able to connect and disconnect in less than 5 min. I liked the system enough that I bought the same setup for our new vehicle.
Easy to install and has worked great since installing. Would recommend to anyone with a Colorado or any other vehicle.
Thank you All at etrailer.
Once again you All have out done yourselves, which is big job. Due to the fact you always do a great job.
Well there was one time, when an item was shipped from the manf. But even then you sent a reimbursement for a portion of the labor cost it took to make the hitch fit a Classic 1981 El Camino.
Even in this difficult time of covid, your still doing your best.
Very rugged kit with excellent instructions. A DIYer with medium mechanical skills can install. Involved removing the front bumper which was not difficult. Value for the price is very good. As always, etrailer support was also very good.
