• Difference Between Base Plate Kits for 2016 Jeep Wrangler 75th Anniversary
  The difference between the two Roadmaster base plate kits you referenced is the design of the removable arms of the kit. The part # 1444-3 is a MX kit which does not use a crossbar and would be easier to install in my opinion.
