• Will Roadmaster StowMaster 5000 Tow Bar Fit Base Plate Kit for 2013 to 2015 Ford Focus

• What Parts are Needed to Flat Tow a 2012 Ford Focus
  The Roadmaster Base Plates, # RM-524430-4, are a fit for the 2012 Ford Focus SE. Although, if the vehicle has the adaptive cruise control feature, it cannot be flat towed.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2012 Ford Focus
  Yes, the base plate kit part # RM-524430-4 is a fit for your 2012 Ford Focus, can be used with the Roadmaster Tracker part # RM-020, and the diode wiring kit part # RM-15267 would cover the lighting. You do need supplemental braking though as well. The easiest system to set up and use is the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR, that applies the vehicle brakes in proportion to how much the tow vehicle is braking. This is the safest way to stop and it reduces wear and tear on both vehicles.

• Recommended Base Plate Kit For 2014 Ford Focus
  Unfortunately we do not offer a base plate kit for your 1969 Camaro. Any flat-towing kit for this car would require a custom made kit if you are unable to find base plates.

If you do not have the ST model and you do not have Adaptive Cruise Control the base plate kit I recommend is part # RM-524430-4. The price for any of the products we offer are shown on the product page on our website.
