If you like keeping a factory look when you’re not towing, this setup does it right. The streamlined design eliminates the need for a quick-disconnect crossbar, leaving no bulky parts sticking out. Once the drawbars are removed, the remaining brackets sit tucked inside the grille—hidden and protected from scrapes and scuffs. It’s a clean, low-profile setup that keeps your front end looking sharp between trips.
Setting up or breaking down your tow rig is fast thanks to the direct-connect brackets and twist-lock arms. Each arm slides in, twists, and clicks into place for a secure hold. When it’s time to unhook, just pull the built-in ring to unlock, twist back, and slide the arm out. No pins to drop or extra bars to manage—it’s a straightforward system that makes connecting solo an easy job.
This base plate kit mounts directly to your vehicle’s frame using heavy-duty, computer-cut steel for precise alignment and durability. The black powder coat finish resists corrosion, so it holds up to miles of road grime and weather. The solid construction spreads towing forces evenly through the chassis for strength you can trust on long hauls.
Each kit is custom-built for specific applications so it lines up cleanly with factory mounting points—no welding required. Installation hardware and instructions are included to guide you through the bolt-on process. With a straightforward layout and no welding involved, it’s a manageable project whether you’re in the shop or tackling it at home.
This setup is made for Roadmaster motor-home-mounted tow bars that slide directly into a trailer hitch—like the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2 models. The direct connection keeps everything aligned and solid during travel while eliminating extra adapters or crossbars from your setup. It’s a simple match that delivers clean operation and a dependable connection every time you tow.

I’ve pulled the Chevy behind our motor home several times over a the last year. It has worked excellent. And when not in tow the tubing is barely noticeable.

Wow great job Crystal! It looks great! Also, I couldn’t help but notice “Ski Express” on the car, that’s pretty cool. What kind of work do you do?

Which trim is your 2026 Chevy Trax? Per Roadmaster, the # RM25EQ (523228-5) fits all trims of the 2026 Trax except the ACTIV trim....

It’s been a great year. No problems with the base plate. Works great with my tow bar. Towed my trailblazer from Texas to North Dakota and back, and several short trips.
