When you’re not towing, the EZ Base Plate Kit keeps things clean and uncluttered. Its hidden bracket design tucks neatly into the grille so nothing bulky sticks out. The removable drawbars use a simple twist-and-pull motion to come off without tools, leaving the front end with a smooth, factory look. Once removed, the brackets stay protected from scrapes and scuffs inside the grille area.
Connecting your tow bar doesn’t get much easier. Just insert the arms, twist to lock, and you’re ready to go—no pins or clips required. That quick motion locks everything solidly in place and makes disconnecting just as simple. It’s a setup that works smoothly whether you’re hitching up solo or in tight spots.
This base plate is made from computer-cut, all-steel material for strength you can count on mile after mile. The black powder coat finish resists corrosion and keeps the hardware looking sharp over time. With a solid design that installs directly to the frame, it offers the durability needed for steady towing through long trips and varying conditions.
You don’t need welding gear or special tools to get this mounted. The brackets bolt directly to the vehicle’s frame using the included instructions and hardware. It’s a straightforward job for anyone comfortable turning wrenches on a weekend project, and once installed, you’ve got a reliable setup that’s ready when you are.
If you already own a tow bar or plan to switch in the future, this kit keeps things flexible. The EZ series works with Roadmaster tow bars and Quick Disconnects, and it pairs easily with the Roadmaster Base Plate to Blue Ox Tow Bar Adapter # RM-032 (sold separately). That means you can build or expand your towing system without starting over.

Purchased the towing adapter for my GMC Terrain a few week ago, received it on time & boxed not damaged. Watched the videos’ about three time on how to do it myself and started one evening and finished it the next morning about three hours with Beer Breaks, LoL. All the parts fix perfectly, had no problems with any of the parts, Product is real sturdy and if you don’t know where to look at the bumper you will not see the hide away receiver brackets. Very nice product, do it yourself and save
Up loading two photos if it will let me one is with hide away brackets installed and the other one you can see is my complete tow bar attached to the hide away brackets
easy to follow instructions, took about 3 hours to install. paper template for holes in facia would be great .
Seems like a very well-made sturdy product. Instructions were good however the holes did not quite lineup like they were supposed to so I had to do some mild to moderate modification. I like the way it looks without the towbar on the base plate. It’s fairly well hidden.
The baseplate fit perfectly and the video was very helpful
Thanks for being a great knowledgeable person about this tow set up. It fit perfect and the directions made it a no brainer
Installed without a hitch! Matches up perfectly with the Roadmaster Stowmaster towbar we already had. Beautiful!
Many reviews for this base plate said they could not hook up the U bolts. I had no problem using the U bolts. I did not tighten any bolts until I had them all in place. Then, I tightened all the nuts and bolts. I marked them with paint so I could see if any of them backed off. After a year, all of them are still tight. We towed our mini 4,000 miles in the first year.
the service was 100% will be dealing with them again
Works just fine. No issues
they Fit great and are easy on & off
Went on my ram as directed, have traveled short distance, checked torque, then to Tennessee from upstate New York, worked great.made my life so much easier

I would like to know if it will fit the new 2020 ram. thank you for your interest in this purchase .this kind of service is hard to find this day and time. I want to thank you for every thing. you better believe I am going to tell all my friends about this. thank you again for everything. james b graham
Everything I have ever purchased from Etrailer has been great quality and they are excellent to work with!!!
The product was complete and the installation was very easy. Took about 2 hours to do it by myself...Fit like a glove
Shipping was prompt, install video made it easy.
This kit fits like a glove, arrived quickly, and etrailer seemed to be the price leader. All worked out well
The equipment was easy to install and is what is needed to tow a RAM truck behind and RV. We were looking for an RV which the closest place to buy one is 100 miles from here and we were most likely going to drive 250 to 500 miles to get our RV... until I was told we really don't need and RV. But just in case someone changes their mind again. I will leave the kit firmly bolted to the RAM truck.
All the parts and instructions arrived on time and in great condition. The base plate was an easy install with simple tools and a fairly basic mechanical know how.
Kit was installed by hitching post on Ocala Florida. The installation has been a success. I really like the diodes for compatable wiring. Towed about 4 thousand miles in my Ram and feel confident that it will go many more.
thy where grate to order from fast shipping to
great fit. a slight cut needed to be made in the bumper bracket to facilitate the round tube to fit through the bracket. but, other than that, it was an easy install took about 2 hours if you include the coffee brakes. this part is highly recommended. Fast shipping. the beast human service. thank you.
