When you’re not towing, the front end stays clean and uncluttered. The brackets sit farther back than standard designs, so once the drawbars are removed, they’re virtually invisible. No crossbar sticks out, and the setup looks factory fresh while keeping the mounting points protected inside the grille area.
Connecting is simple and doesn’t take an extra set of hands. Each arm slides into the bracket, twists to lock in place, and clicks securely with no tools needed. When it’s time to disconnect, you just pull the built-in ring to unlock and twist the arm free. This design makes setting up or breaking down fast and straightforward whether you’re home or on the road.
The heavy-duty steel construction gives this base plate kit real staying power. Each bracket is computer-cut for precision fitment and rigidity, helping spread towing forces evenly along the frame. The black powder coat finish fights corrosion and keeps everything looking sharp even after thousands of miles of highway grime.
This system bolts directly to the vehicle’s frame—no welding required. The kit comes with all hardware and instructions for a clean install. Reviewers note you may need to drill or trim thick steel bumper plates during installation, so plan ahead with proper metal-cutting tools for a smooth job start to finish.
Designed specifically for Roadmaster motor-home-mounted tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch—like the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2—this base plate eliminates the need for a quick-disconnect crossbar. The result is a simpler, more streamlined hookup every time you tow.

While the install was a bit of some work, the base plates work great and are rock solid on the Bronco frame. All good.
