When you’re logging serious miles behind the RV, a solid front connection gives peace of mind. The Demco Classic Base Plate Kit uses fixed draw bars that bolt directly to the chassis with no welding required. Its sturdy steel construction spreads towing force evenly to minimize weight on the suspension for a dependable pull mile after mile. The bracket spacing of 28-3/4" and height of 17-1/2" help you plan the rest of your towing gear around a stable, level setup.
If you like your front bumper to stay uncluttered when parked, this setup keeps things tidy. The hidden reinforcement design eliminates any crossbar or large protruding brackets, leaving only compact base-plate tabs visible. When you’re not towing, the included high-density polyethylene tab covers snap into place for a clean look while keeping dirt out of the tabs—and they even cushion the blow if you bump your shins on them.
You don’t need special tools or welding to mount this kit. It’s a simple bolt-on installation that uses existing chassis points, and everything you need comes in the box—clear instructions, hardware, and an electrical bracket for mounting a round connector plug. For anyone setting up their own towing system, it’s a doable weekend job that results in a rock-solid fit.
No need to replace gear you already trust. This base plate works directly with all Demco tow bars and can be adapted for other manufacturers’ tow bars using separately sold Demco adapters. That flexibility means you can integrate it smoothly into an existing setup without extra hassle or expense.

After one year, the base plate kit is still going strong as ever. Nothing has broken or come loose.

After a year, baseplate works great. Changed tow bar to a non-ball type. No baseplate connection issues.

I have had this in operation for a year now and I am still just as happy as I was the first day. Great product.

Hi Don. Per Demco, the # DM9518010 is a fit for the 1998 Jeep Cherokee, unless it has the front skid plate removed or if it's equipped with the up-country suspension or Tow hook pkg.

After a year everything works as it should. I did loose one of the plastic covers because they dont fit good and snug. On a side note, my MH broke down on the expressway and I was able to use the toad to push my MH off the expressway to a safe place. Not sure if any else has done this but it truly was a life saver!
