If you want your setup to look clean when you’re not towing, this base plate nails it. The brackets sit farther back than standard designs, so once the drawbars are removed, the front end looks factory. The remaining brackets stay tucked within the grille, protected from scrapes and scuffs. No bulky quick-disconnect crossbar is needed, keeping everything neat and out of sight.
Connecting is straightforward thanks to the twist-lock design. Each arm slides into the bracket, clicks to lock in place, and releases just as easily with the built-in pull ring. There’s no fussing with extra pins or crossbars—just a quick twist and you’re ready to tow. When it’s time to unhook, twist again and pull the arm out. It’s simple and repeatable every time you set up.
The all-steel build and computer-cut brackets give this kit the strength needed for thousands of towing miles. It bolts directly to the vehicle’s frame—no welding required—so you get a solid mount that spreads towing forces evenly across the front end. The black powder coat finish adds durability and corrosion resistance, keeping the hardware looking sharp even after long runs on the road.
If you’re already running a Roadmaster motor-home-mounted tow bar like the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2, this kit fits right in. It eliminates the need for a quick-disconnect crossbar while giving you direct attachment points that line up perfectly with your existing gear. Everything you need to mount is included—hardware and clear instructions—so setup is straightforward from start to finish.
Note: Roadmaster direct-connect base plates will only work with Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch, such as the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2. These base plates will not work with tow bars that require a hitch ball.

Just completed a 6000 trip and no problems at all. The truck made it home safely! A bit of rust here and there. The locking pins need a bit of lubricating.
