If you want your vehicle to keep its factory look when it’s not being towed, this setup does the trick. The invisible design leaves no crossbar or bulky brackets in sight, and the removable drawbar arms stay on your tow bar instead of the bumper. High-density polyethylene receiver covers snap over the openings to keep out dirt and debris, so the tabs slide smoothly into place every time you hook up.
Connecting takes just a twist and a pin. Each arm inserts into the base plate receiver, locks in place with a quick turn, and secures with a pull pin for an extra layer of safety. When you’re unhooking, pull the pin, twist, and slide the arm out—it’s that simple. The brackets sit 28-3/8" apart with a height of 14-1/2", giving you consistent reference points for your tow bar setup.

This base plate’s durable steel build spreads towing forces evenly across the chassis to help minimize stress on the suspension during long-distance trips. It bolts directly to the frame—no welding required—and includes all necessary hardware. The solid design keeps your setup dependable through miles of travel and repeated hook-ups.
Already have a tow bar system you like? You’re covered. This base plate works directly with etrailer, Demco, and Blue Ox tow bars—no adapter needed. If you’re running a Roadmaster system, add one of the matching adapters (e98983, e98984, e98979, or e98981, sold separately) to tie it all together. The built-in electrical bracket makes it easy to mount a round connector plug up front for tidy wiring management.
If you’re handy with basic tools, installation is a solid weekend project. The kit includes clear instructions and all mounting hardware for a simple bolt-on fit—no welding required. Once installed, the hidden look and easy connect system make this base plate a clean and confidence-inspiring part of any flat tow setup.
