When you’re not towing, you don’t want a clunky setup sticking out from your bumper. This kit uses a hidden bracket design where the drawbars can be removed with two hitch pins, leaving only subtle brackets tucked into the grille area. Once the arms are off, the front end looks clean and uncluttered, and the remaining pieces stay protected from scrapes and debris.
Getting ready to tow should be fast and frustration-free. The square drawbars on this crossbar-style base plate slide in and secure with standard hitch pins—no bolts or wrenches needed. When you’re done towing, just pull the clips and store the arms. It’s a straightforward process that makes hooking up solo easy and repeatable every time.
Flat towing puts real stress on connection points, so strength matters. This kit is built entirely from computer-cut steel for precision alignment and consistent weld quality. The black powder coat finish helps resist rust and corrosion through years of weather and road grime, while spreading towing forces evenly across the frame for a solid, dependable pull mile after mile.
Each kit is custom-built to bolt up to the specific frame mounting points of your vehicle—no welding required. The included mounting hardware and clear instructions keep things straightforward for DIYers who prefer tackling projects in their own garage. Once installed, it’s a sturdy foundation that pairs seamlessly with a Roadmaster tow bar using a quick-disconnect crossbar (910021-00, sold separately).
Already have a tow bar you like? You can still use it with this base plate kit. It’s compatible with Roadmaster tow bars through the quick-disconnect system, and adapters such as # BX88178 or # RM-032 make connection possible with Blue Ox setups as well. That flexibility lets you reuse existing gear without changing your whole towing system.
