When you’re not towing, you don’t want bulky hardware showing up front. The Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit tucks its brackets inside the grille area, leaving only the removable drawbars visible. Pop them out by pulling two hitch pins, and the remaining brackets are practically invisible. It keeps the front end clean and safe from scrapes or bumps when parked or driving around town.
Flat towing puts a lot of stress on the connection points, and this setup handles it with ease. Each mount is computer-cut from solid steel for precise fit and strength. The black powder coat finish fights off corrosion and road wear, so you can trust it to stay solid through miles of towing. It’s a durable system that reinforces the front frame without requiring any welding during install.
Hooking up takes just a couple of pins—no complicated alignment or extra tools needed. The square drawbars slide into 1-1/2" receivers on the base plate and secure with standard hitch pins for a snug, reliable fit every time. Once locked in, your tow bar attaches through a quick-disconnect crossbar (part #910021-00, sold separately), keeping the whole system tight and ready for travel.
You don’t have to be a pro to get this mounted right. The kit comes with instructions and all necessary mounting hardware for a straightforward bolt-on installation—no welding required. If you need fish wire bolt leaders (part #C58390), they’re sold separately to complete the setup. It’s a practical project for a weekend garage session that ends with a tow-ready vehicle and no extra fabrication needed.

We have been towing our 2003 Chevrolet Tracker for over 2 years. About 5000 miles. The Base Plate that we purchased from Roadmaster two years ago, has served us well. Ten years ago we had a 2007 Impreza that we put a Roadmaster Tow Base on and it served us well. Not to mention how easy they were to install. All necessary hardware and instructions were included. We towed that Impreza from California to Maine twice. I highly recommend the Roadmaster Tow Base Plates to anyone who wants to flat Tow their car.

I recommend taking a look at the video installation that we have on a 2004 Chevy Tracker.
