Tow Bar Adapters

- How To Use etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar On 2020 Ford F-250 Super DutyI recommend the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar part # e94ZR for a 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty which can then be used with the Demco Classic Base Plate Kit part # DM68FR. The etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Reese or Valley Base Plates part # e97ZR won't work as Reese nor Valley (No Longer In Business) no long makes base pates.
view full answer... - Recommended Baseplate For A 2023 Ford F-250 With A Roadmaster Tow BarSince there currently isn't a Roadmaster fit for a 2023 Ford F-250 you'll instead need the Demco Classic Base Plate Kit # DM68FR along with an adapter # DM9523036 to connect to your Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-522. I do want to note that the capacity of the # RM-522 is only 6,000lbs and the curb weight for your vehicle ranges from 5,677 to 7,538lbs, so you might need to upgrade to a higher capacity tow bar like the Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain # RM-422.

view full answer... - Recommended Baseplate For A 2023 Ford F-250The only confirmed fit so far for a 2023 Ford F-250 is from Demco with the Demco Classic Base Plate Kit # DM68FR. At this time there is not an adapter to connect this baseplate with the Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar # BX7420 so you would need to use a different tow bar as well. If you choose to go this route then I recommend the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e94ZR. This tow bar comes with safety cables bracketed onto the arms so that you don't have to purchase them separately or worry about...
view full answer... - Can A Base Plate Kit Be installed On A 2017 Ford F-250 With Existing Snow Plow BracketsThe Demco Classic Base Plate Kit # DM68FR you reference will fit your 2017 Ford F-250, however the snow plow brackets would likely get in the way, and would need to be removed. Unfortunately, there is no adapter to make this work. However, I have attached some other components below you'll need for a complete flat towing setup: -Tow bar # DM9511013 -Braking System # SM99243 -Wiring # RM-152-98146-7
view full answer... - Complete Flat Towing Setup for a 2023 Ford F-250Yes, we do have the Demco Classic Base Plate Kit # DM68FR which is custom fit to your 2023 Ford F-250. This base plate is American made and will fit any set of Demco tow bars and can also be adapted to fit every other brand of bars. If you're also needing a complete flat towing setup, you're also going to need: -A set of tow bars like the Demco Dominator Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511008, -A braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR, -A brake lite relay kit # RM-88400, & -A...
view full answer... - Weight Capacity of Demco Base Plates for a 2020 Ford F-350The Demco Classic Base Plate Kit part # DM68FR which is a fit for a 2020 Ford F-350 does not have a listed weight capacity as is the case with all base plate kits. They will be suitable for handing the weight of the vehicle and then some without issue. In regards to a tow bar, the highest rated compatible option we have is the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar part # e94ZR which will be plenty since the curb weight of said vehicle is between 5,878 and 7,737 lbs.

I'm attaching some photos from the linked instructions for you to reference and see what I'm talking about!

view full answer... - Tow Bar And Complete Flat Towing Setup For A 2020 Ford F-250 7.3I did some research, and it appears the 2020 Ford F-250 7.3 has a GVWR of 10,000-lbs, so the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 you mentioned, is not going to have enough weight capacity to tow your truck. Instead, I recommend going with the Demco Excali-Bar III Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511013 . This tow bar has a maximum capacity of 10,500-lbs which should be more than enough to safely tow your Ford F-250. This tow bar can be adapted to become compatible with...
