If you like your vehicle to keep its clean, factory look when you’re not towing, this setup does exactly that. The invisible design means there’s no bulky crossbar or brackets sticking out. The removable draw bar arms stay on your tow bar instead of the bumper, so once you disconnect, there’s nothing in the way. Snap-in polyethylene covers seal the receivers when not in use, keeping out dirt and debris so the arms slide in and out smoothly every time.
Connecting the tow bar is quick and simple. The twist-lock attachment lets each arm slide into the receiver, twist to lock, and secure with a pull pin—no extra tools or steps needed. This makes it easy to line things up and get hooked up safely whether you’re at home or at the campsite. The bracket spacing is 22-1/4" with a bracket height of 18-3/4", giving you solid reference points when setting up your tow bar height.
This sturdy, dependable design bolts right to the chassis with no welding required. Its steel construction spreads towing forces evenly to minimize strain on your suspension during long hauls. Reviewers trust it for thousands of miles of trouble-free towing, which is exactly what you want when you’re logging serious road time between stops.
If you already have a tow bar setup you like, chances are it will work here. This base plate is compatible with all Demco, etrailer, and Blue Ox tow bars without an adapter. For Roadmaster setups, just add the correct adapter (e98983, e98984, e98979, or e98981; sold separately). It even includes an electrical bracket for mounting a round connector plug so your wiring stays neat and easy to connect.
This kit is built with do-it-yourselfers in mind. The bolt-on installation doesn’t require welding and comes with all necessary hardware and clear instructions. Once installed, the design stays secure and low-profile for the long run. It’s a straightforward weekend project that leaves you ready for reliable flat towing miles ahead.

Well made. Was not hard to install. My wife and I got it done.
Very easy to hook up and excellent towi ng.
Easy to install
Took some manufacturing as I had a custom bumper but the company who installed it was able to figure it out and it pulls perfectly behind my class A on my jeep
Made to last and easy to install. Just follow the instructions
Excellent service on a timely delivery. The box was torn apart but all the parts were inside. I’m sure it didn’t get shipped that way but damaged by the carrier.
Great product and even better service.
As ordered. Easy instructions. Fast del ivery
Great product and service. Information is great for DIY people. Fast shipping. Thanks!
We tow the Wrangler behind our 36' Monaco. Easy setup, confident towing, and easy disconnect. Highly recommend.
It fits like it should
A bit of wrestling to install, but easily accomplished with hand tools. Worth the half day to install it over to 1000 dollars labor to have it installed. Fits up nice and tight under bumper, minimal impact on approach angle. A good balance of good for towing and still off-road friendly.
The installation information is seriously lacking! It does not identify the Manufacture's name, the instructions are so bad...the only possible way to get a full understanding was to watch an on line video...not the easiest way when the jeep is outside , not in my house! Other than that little [hiccup], it's great.
Had to have it drop shiped at our campground. Lucky i had the tools with me to install. For the most part it was pretty straightforward,but the passenger side bracket had about a half inch gap so i had to leave the lockwasher out so that i had enough threads to get the bolt to start. Once it was started it pulled up tight. I give it 4 stars due to the two tab nuts not being long enough. If the tabs were an inch longer you could actually hold it in place and it would install much easier. Cant thank etrailer enough for doing everything they could to help me get back on the road 1100 miles from home.
Easy installation, quick unhook and hookup. A much cleaner installation.

Easy quick connect and disconnect, easy to install
Nice product. Not as heavy duty as my previous road master baseplate but I’m sure it will hold up just fine. Fitment a little off. Took a little effort to get two bolt holes aligned but they went in. The backer nuts that go inside the frame are a little tricky to hold. Especially on passenger side. Again just have to be patient. I used a step drill for 1/2” holes through the frame. Worked great. From start to finish. 2.5 hours I have all the proper tools. If you are not a decent mechanic, it could take you much longer. Watch the video. Take your time
Had more trouble getting the bumper off then putting the base plate on
Super simple install and stealthy look once installed. This looks way better than any other baseplate on the market. A+
Took some time but made it fit
Well built, and straightforward installation using the video showing install on 2016 Wrangler. Looks good and I saved a ton of $$ doing it myself. Requires drilling 2 holes in frame but easy to do with strong drill and right bit.
Gave it four stars because it was delivered the box was damaged. I don’t think the product is damaged. I haven’t had time to put it on yet but everything looks good and I’m hoping for the best.
Excellent quality workmanship. Installation instructions were clear and the process was straightforward. Very pleased with the end result.
