This setup keeps your front end looking clean when you’re not towing. The Direct-Connect design eliminates the bulky quick-disconnect crossbar, leaving only compact brackets that sit far back in the grille. Once the drawbars are removed, the remaining brackets are virtually invisible and protected from scrapes and scuffs. It’s a factory-style look without anything sticking out where you might bump into it.
Each arm slides into the bracket, twists to lock, and secures in place automatically. When it’s time to disconnect, pull the built-in ring to release and twist the arm back out. It’s a simple motion that makes connecting or removing your tow bar quick and frustration-free, even if you’re hooking up alone at the campsite or on the road.
The base plate mounts directly to your vehicle’s frame with no welding required. Its computer-cut, all-steel construction provides exceptional strength, while the black powder coat finish adds durable corrosion resistance. This setup is built to handle thousands of towing miles and keep working trip after trip without flexing or fatigue.
The system is purpose-built for Roadmaster motor-home-mounted tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch—like the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2. The design removes the need for a separate quick-disconnect crossbar, keeping your setup streamlined and reducing extra weight up front.
Installation is straightforward thanks to a bolt-on design—no welding needed. The kit comes with instructions and all mounting hardware so you can get it fitted at home or by a local shop without hunting down extra parts. Once mounted, you get a dependable connection that’s easy to use every time you tow.

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.
