This setup keeps your front end clean and uncluttered when you’re not towing. The direct-connect brackets sit farther back than standard ones, so once the drawbars are removed the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. There’s no bulky quick-disconnect crossbar in sight, just a neat, low-profile look that blends into the grille and stays protected from scrapes and scuffs.
Each drawbar slides into the bracket, clicks to lock in place, and secures with a built-in pull ring. When you’re done towing, a quick twist releases the arm so you can remove it in seconds. The simple twist-lock setup makes connecting easy even when you’re on your own or parked on uneven ground.
The brackets are computer-cut from all-steel material for precise fit and exceptional strength. A black powder coat finish adds durability and corrosion resistance so the hardware can handle years of towing without worry. The included crossbeam is an integral part of the design, helping spread load forces evenly across the frame for a solid, stable connection every trip.
This kit mounts directly to the vehicle’s frame using existing attachment points. Installation is simple—no welding needed—and all required mounting hardware and instructions come in the box. It’s a solid choice for anyone who prefers a DIY setup or wants a base plate that fits cleanly without extra fabrication.
The base plate is designed specifically for Roadmaster motor-home-mounted tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch, such as the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2. It’s not made for tow bars that require a hitch ball, ensuring a precise match for your existing Roadmaster system.

I’ve pulled the Chevy behind our motor home several times over a the last year. It has worked excellent. And when not in tow the tubing is barely noticeable.

Wow great job Crystal! It looks great! Also, I couldn’t help but notice “Ski Express” on the car, that’s pretty cool. What kind of work do you do?

Which trim is your 2026 Chevy Trax? Per Roadmaster, the # RM25EQ (523228-5) fits all trims of the 2026 Trax except the ACTIV trim....

It’s been a great year. No problems with the base plate. Works great with my tow bar. Towed my trailblazer from Texas to North Dakota and back, and several short trips.
