When you’re not towing, it’s nice to keep the front of your vehicle looking stock. The hidden bracket design lets you do exactly that. The square drawbars come off in seconds—just pull two hitch pins—and the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. They sit inside the grille area where they stay protected from scrapes and out of sight until you’re ready to tow again.
This kit uses precision-cut steel for solid strength and durability. The construction is designed to handle the stress of flat towing while reinforcing the front frame mounts. A black powder coat finish resists corrosion and keeps the hardware looking clean after long use on the road.
The crossbar-style design provides sturdy attachment points for your tow bar using simple hitch pin connections. It’s compatible with Roadmaster tow bars when used with the quick-disconnect crossbar (910021-00, sold separately). Each connection locks in place securely, giving you confidence that your setup is solid before hitting the highway.
You don’t need to weld or fabricate anything to get this base plate installed. The kit includes all mounting hardware and detailed instructions for a straightforward bolt-on setup. Once it’s mounted, connecting your tow bar and other flat towing components is simple, making this a practical pick for anyone setting up their own rig.

Thanks for the review and for sharing your installation experience Christian. Your tip about leaving the bumper on during install is really helpful, especially since fitting the ends through the louvers can take a little extra maneuvering. It’s also great to hear the setup works well with your Stowmaster 5000. The install looks great, and we appreciate you sharing the picture! Where did you go for the first trip?

Everything related to my Mini towing system is working great after a year of use.i do wish I had bought a cover for the tow bar though. Keeping it clean would be easier with the cover. Great products and service from etrailet

New system working fine. As with previous system it requires towed vehicle to be nearly perfectly aligned straight behind motorhome to disconnect without considerable tension.

Everything is working great, I installed a base plate kit, battery charging kit, stop light switch kit, second vehicle air brake kit w brakeaway and seat adapter on our 2019 Chevy Equinox and towed it about 14000 miles behind our motor home this past year and everything worked perfect not a problem with any product. These are great products, everything fit perfectly and performed perfectly. Thank you for great service and great products. Rob

It’s been a year now and probably 7,000 miles later and everything has held up perfectly despite some darn rough roads between MD and Albuquerque, NM and back.

Hate that every 3,000 miles towing have to re-torque bolts of base plate. Good product otherwise.
