If you want your vehicle to keep its factory look when it’s not towing, this setup does the trick. The hidden design leaves no bulky crossbar or brackets in sight, and the tabs stay on your tow bar so there’s nothing sticking out from the bumper. Snap-in polyethylene covers keep dirt and debris out of the receivers, helping the arms slide in and out smoothly every time you hook up.
Each arm slides into the receiver, twists to lock, and secures with the included pull pin. It’s a quick, secure process that makes connecting in your driveway or at a campsite simple and reliable. The distance between brackets is 34-3/8" and bracket height is 18", letting you plan other components around those specs.
This base plate bolts directly to the chassis with no welding required. Its sturdy steel build spreads towing forces evenly to reduce weight placed on the suspension. That dependable design gives peace of mind for long-distance towing setups that see thousands of miles of use.
Already have a tow bar setup you like? You’re covered. This kit works with 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). The included electrical bracket lets you mount a round connector plug up front so your wiring stays tidy and ready to connect.
If you’re handy and like doing your own setup, this install is right up your alley. The base plate bolts securely to your vehicle’s frame using the included hardware—no welding needed. Clear instructions guide you through each step for a straightforward project that ends with a clean, solid towing setup ready for the road.

Still working perfectly. Towed the jeep about 2000 miles from WA State down to Disneyland and then to Las Vegas and back. Plus dozens of camping trips.

Hi Shawn, the etrailer Invisible Base Plates part # e66GV are not a fit for the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee, which is why the shutters had to be removed, and the instructions didn't cover it. These base plates fit the previous 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee model, but due to changes in the fascia and bumper they're not a fit for the 2026 model due to those modifications. However, the actual frame of the 2026 Grand Cherokee is still the same as the 2025 model, so the base plates are safe to tow with.
Do you have a question about this Tow Bar Base Plate?
