If you want a towing setup that doesn’t ruin the look of your front end, this base plate does it right. The brackets sit far back on the frame so they’re tucked out of sight, and once the drawbars are removed, the remaining mounts are virtually invisible. Reviewers love that it looks factory-installed and clean when not in use—no bulky crossbar or exposed metal sticking out.
Connecting your tow bar is fast thanks to Roadmaster’s twist-lock system. Each arm slides in, clicks to lock in place, and releases with a simple pull of the built-in ring—no tools or awkward angles required. It’s a solid setup for anyone who wants to hook up at a campsite or roadside without wrestling heavy parts into position.
This kit bolts directly to the vehicle’s frame with no welding needed. The computer-cut, all-steel construction gives it exceptional strength and keeps everything tight mile after mile. A black powder coat finish adds corrosion resistance so you can trust it to hold up through years of long-distance towing and weather exposure.
The base plate comes ready for a straightforward bolt-on install using the included mounting hardware and instructions—no fabrication required. Owners mention completing installs in just a few hours using basic tools. With the precise fit and clear guidance, even first-time DIYers can get it mounted confidently before their next trip.
Designed specifically for Roadmaster motorhome-mounted tow bars like the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, or Falcon series, this direct-connect style eliminates the need for an extra crossbar. The result is a cleaner look, fewer parts to manage, and a solid connection that performs reliably through thousands of towing miles.

Glad to hear that, Alfredo! Happy to hear that your wife likes it, too. Way to go on pressing on and getting the install done! Would you have any advice or tips for anyone else looking to do the same install on their '25 Jeep Gladiator?
