When you’re setting up for long hauls, strength and precision matter. The Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit uses all-steel construction that’s computer-cut for a precise fit on your frame. It installs with included hardware and doesn’t require any welding. The black powder coat finish adds corrosion resistance so it stays solid through years of towing and road grime.
Nobody wants a permanent chunk of metal sticking out from the front of their ride. Once the arms are removed, this bracket setup is virtually invisible—tucked neatly within the grille area where it stays protected from scrapes and scuffs. The result is a tidy, factory-like appearance and no shin-busting hardware when you’re walking around up front.
This EZ system lives up to its name. The removable drawbars slide into the brackets, twist to lock, and come out just as easily—no pins or clips required. That twist-and-pull action makes connecting or disconnecting simple whether you’re in your driveway or at the campsite. Quick connects mean less time messing with hardware and more time getting on the road.
Already running a Roadmaster tow bar or one with quick disconnects? This base plate kit fits right in without extra adapters. Each kit comes complete with installation hardware and instructions so everything you need to mount it is in the box. It’s a straightforward, reliable foundation for any flat-towing setup that uses Roadmaster components.
You don’t need specialized tools or welding gear for this job. The included instructions walk you through bolting the brackets to your vehicle’s frame for a secure, level mount. Clear steps and pre-cut steel parts make it approachable even for first-time DIYers who like doing their own setups. Once fitted, it’s ready to handle thousands of miles without fuss.

I towed my Mini Cooper on a 5000-mile trip this summer. The Base Plates worked great. I had to replace the water pump on the Cooper this required removing and reinstalling the base plates. I inspected them, and after two years and 9000 miles of towing, they are in perfect shape.

Did you have to do any drilling on your vehicle to mount this system?

The Roadmaster baseplate and Falcon tow bar are working great with our 2014 Grand Cherokee and Endeavor motorhome. We are in the middle of a 1500 mile trip and have had no problems with the equipment. I have decided that I need to purchase a braking system for the Jeep. Thinking about the Invisi Brake, primarily because it is made by Roadmaster and I had a great experience with your companys customer service when the 2014 Grand Cherokee baseplate kit was being developed. Thanks for the good work.

Have been using this tow adapter now for a while and everything works out fine, Easy to connect. I did purchase the Wiring harness from the tail lights to the front of the car instead of making it as I usually do and the connection to the RV from that connection and glad I did, the wiring harness also went easy and very fast.

I have towed my Terrain about 3500 miles with no issues. It tows and tracks extremely well. I put red paint marks on the bolts that are easily seen, so that I can see at a glance if any bolts have loosened up. I use a Roadmaster All Terrain tow hitch and SMI Duo braking system.
