This base plate kit is made from computer-cut, all-steel construction for exceptional strength. The solid build spreads towing forces evenly and gives you confidence on long trips. The black powder coat finish adds durability and corrosion resistance, keeping the brackets protected from road grime and weather over time.
The crossbar-style setup gives you fixed attachment points that stay ready whenever you need to tow. The fixed-bar design means the front arms cannot be removed, so there’s nothing loose to keep track of. When paired with a Roadmaster tow bar and quick-disconnect crossbar (910021-00, sold separately), the connection stays solid and predictable every time you hitch up.
These brackets are custom-built to ensure a perfect fit for your vehicle’s frame. The precise alignment helps make installation straightforward and keeps everything square when you torque it down. Clear instructions and mounting hardware are included so you have what you need to get the job done right.
If you already use a Roadmaster tow bar, this kit works seamlessly when combined with the quick-disconnect crossbar (910021-00, sold separately). You can also use car side quick disconnects (RM-222, sold separately) or add lighting with the RoadMaster Tail Light Wiring Kit (RM-154, sold separately) for a complete towing setup.
Everything bolts on using the supplied hardware, and the included instructions walk you through each step. For a full installation, fishwires (C58400, sold separately) are required to help route bolts cleanly through the frame during setup. It’s a steady weekend project that ends with a solid, dependable towing connection.

I spoke to my contact at Roadmaster and he said, as this kit is for vehicles 30 plus years old, it does not fit the new systems, verbiage, and formats that are currently used in installations. With this vehicle being an uncommonly flat towed vehicle as well, they are limited to the one vehicle that came into their shop, which was being the model to design the installation instructions. This can lead to little things not being detailed in the instructions.

Install completed and many miles of care free towing behind our motorhome. Fixes suggested made for a simple install. Should be incorporated in future kits. I wont charge for the redesign. :+~ I spent my working life as a mechanical designer builder for a major industrial equipment company.

It’s been great. I only use it to tow my huntn’ rig and never a problem. I’m 87 now and can load and unload by myself.
