Video Transcript for Review of Roadmaster Tow Bar Base Plate - Direct Connect Base Plate Kit Removable Arms - RM56NQ

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this Roadmaster direct connect base plate kit. Now, this kit has been designed to fit your 2024 and newer Chevrolet Colorado ZR2, and the GMC Canyon AT4X. On custom fit parts such as this kit, I do recommend taking advantage of our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com. Just input the year, make, and model of your vehicle and our fit guide will confirm if this kit will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you.

Now, if you love a polished and neat look on the front of your truck when you're not towing, this direct connect base plate kit is going to really be a great option for you to consider, because it has removable arms and the twist lock attachment. This is going to be very easy to effortlessly position this into place with the simple twist and lock securely for quick engagement and removal. So when it's not in use, you're just going to pull and twist, and the arms are out. So hopefully you can see here there's a ring right here, and I'm going to pull that with my index finger and that's going to release this. So I'm just gonna be able to twist that and then easily remove the arm there.

So that's going to leave the bracket hidden and it's gonna maintain your truck's clean aesthetic. And then when you're ready to pop this back into place, make sure that you can see that there. It's just gonna lock this like that. So very easy to use. So again, let me bring this off to the side here real quick.

I'm just going to pull on that ring that's going to release it. I'll twist it, and then boom, just like that. So this is gonna be very easy. It's not some hard, complicated thing to do or anything like that. So if you're wanting to just have a nice clean look on the front, this is the way to go.

You're gonna be able to also skip the hassle of welding with this base plate kit. The all-steel construction is going to mount directly onto your truck's frame, so that's going to ensure a straightforward installation. This is designed with precision, and the custom fit's gonna guarantee that your truck remains unaltered yet equipped with a robust support system ready for your next adventure. So this is gonna really promise a perfect match with the custom design specific to your truck's model, and that's going to ensure that your setup looks integrated and it also is gonna give unwavering support for all of the journeys that you take, no matter where that road may lead. So this has a pretty innovative hidden bracket design, and as we've been mentioning, the strength of this is when those arms are removed, really no one's gonna know that you even have this. It's not only going to enhance your truck's aesthetics by keeping parts out of sight, but it's really gonna shield against potential scrapes and wear. Now, if you notice here, we do have a black powder coat finish over everything here, and that's going to enhance its construction and it's durability. The finish isn't just about a sleek look, it's going to ensure significant resistance against corrosion and wear, even in challenging weather and road conditions. So this will hold up really well for you and last you a long time. So this is tailored specifically for Roadmaster motor home mounted tow bars, and this kit is going to be compatible without compromise. So whether you're using the Nighthawk, the Falcon, or the Black Hawk models, this kit is going to complement and enhance that towing experience, ensuring a secure and reliable connection for all of your adventures. If you do pick this up, I would love to hear back from you regarding your experience with getting this installed and using it, so you can share those experiences with us by dropping a comment or leaving a review on this product page. If you leave a review, you can actually share photos with that review, and I would love to see this integrated into your towing setup. If you have any other additional questions, don't hesitate to reach back out to us, whether it's by phone, email, or chat. We do wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you want and need.

The difference comes down to the front bumper design. The # RM56NQ kit is made specifically for the AT4X AEV Edition, which has a unique off-road bumper that sits higher and has different mounting points than the other Canyon trims.
