Roadmaster Tow Bar Base Plate - RM35FR

  • Roadmaster
  • Removable Draw Bars
  • Twist Lock Attachment
  • Partially Hidden

Designed for use with motor-home-mounted tow bars, the direct-connect brackets are virtually invisible, easy to mount and remove, and they eliminate the need for a quick-disconnect crossbar on your tow bar. Installs on your vehicle's frame.


Features:

  • Direct-connect brackets provide attachment points for your motor-home-mounted tow bar
  • Streamlined design creates supremely clean look
    • No obtrusive quick-disconnect crossbar
    • Hidden brackets sit even farther back than standard brackets
  • Drawbars attach and remove quickly and easily
    • Arms click to lock in place in brackets
    • Built-in pull rings let you unlock arms so you can twist and remove them
  • Computer-cut, all-steel construction provides exceptional strength
  • Black powder coat finish is durable and corrosion resistant
  • Simple installation - no welding required
    • Custom base plates ensure a perfect fit for your vehicle
  • Compatible with Roadmaster motor-home-mounted tow bars only
  • Instructions and mounting hardware included
  • Made in the USA
  • Limited Lifetime Warranty


Note: Roadmaster direct-connect base plates will only work with Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch, such as the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2. These base plates will not work with tow bars that require a hitch ball.


The drawbars, or front arms, on this base plate kit are supremely easy to mount and remove. Just insert them into the brackets and twist to lock them in place. To remove each arm, simply tug the built-in pull pin to disengage the lock, twist the arm back and pull it out of the bracket. Once the drawbars have been removed, the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. On most automobiles, the brackets are mounted within the grille, where they remain not only unseen, but protected from scrapes and scuffs as well.

  • Braking Sensitivity Settings for a Brake Buddy Select On a 2025 Chevy Trailblazer LT
    Hey Carrie, there is no set sensitivity setting for the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Flat Tow Brake System # HM39524 and your 2025 Chevy Trailblazer. What you're going to need to do is set the braking power for 25 - 45 psi and go from there. The setting should be enough that your towed vehicle still gives a slight tug at your RV when you brake. If you find that you need more or less PSI you can just adjust from there.

  • Recommended Flat Towing Components For A 2023 Chevy TrailBlazer ACTIV AWD
    Hey Jeffrey, I'm doing good, how about you? Sorry to hear about your Equinox but we can definitely help get your new Trailblazer set up to tow. The tow bar, Tow Defender, safety cables, and charge line kit (if installed) could be swapped over but the diode wiring and baseplate are different. The braking system can most likely be moved over but you might need some new parts depending on the system. What braking system do you currently have? For the baseplate I recommend the Roadmaster...
