The Dominator - the lightest weight tow bar in Demco's Victory Series - is tough and built to last. Lightweight aluminum with durable steel components integrated throughout offers the strength you need to pull up to 7,500 lbs. And durable, anodized aluminum inner arms keep the weight of the tow bar down and allow for smooth operation. Quality-engineered pivot points and hardware ensure both strength and maneuverability. Two hitch pin holes allow you to position the tow bar closer to or further from your RV, without sacrificing load capacity.
The aluminum arms are naturally rust and corrosion resistant, and the anodized finish protects against the elements and flying road debris.
With independent, easy-to-maneuver arms, the Dominator makes connecting your towed vehicle to your motorhome a breeze. Unlike most tow bar arms that move together along a single plane, the Dominator tow bar arms operate completely separately from one another. A vertical bolt through the head of the tow bar keeps the arms positioned one on top of the other, allowing for a more fluid hookup. The arms pivot horizontally on this bolt, allowing for an unlimited spread so that you can hook up to base plates with almost any spacing. A built-in joint at the base of each arm allows for vertical movement so that you don't have to tilt the entire head when positioning the arms.
The arms telescope for easy extension to your base plate connection points, even if your towed car is not perfectly aligned with your RV. The self-supporting design of the arms also allows you to telescope one arm out and attach it to the base plate without having to worry about supporting the opposite arm at the same time. The arms lock into place when you're ready to tow, and the extra length of the arms allows for a better turning radius. By putting more distance between your motorhome and your towed car, your entire setup will become easier to maneuver so that your towed car will track behind your motorhome without running the risk of hitting your RV during turns.
The built-in trigger releases make it easy to disconnect the Dominator. Tension can build up in a telescoping arm when the RV and towed vehicle are not perfectly aligned. Engaging the trigger on each arm releases pressure and allows the arms to telescope freely, making it easy to disconnect the tow bar from the base plates, even if you are at a hard angle or out of level.
Each trigger release latch is positioned on the side of the tow bar arm. This allows for a comfortable yet firm grip, unlike latches that are positioned on the tops of tow bar arms, which can be difficult to grab. This out-of-the-way placement of the latches also creates a clean look for the tow bar.
Towing your vehicle behind your motorhome is simple and stress-free with the Dominator, especially when paired with Demco custom-fit base plates (sold separately). Victory Series tow bars are designed specifically for use with Demco Classic and Demco Tabless base plates, which means they allow for easy hookup without the need for a bulky crossbar.
When using the Dominator with Demco Classic base plates, simply place the lugs inside of the base plate brackets and use the included pins and clips to secure each arm in place. Demco Tabless base plates include brackets that mount on each tow bar arm, eliminating any protruding brackets from your vehicle and allowing for a quick, quarter-turn hookup of each arm.
If you have base plates from a different manufacturer on your towed car currently, an adapter may be available. Demco makes adapters for use with other manufacturer's base plates so that you don't have to go through the added hassle of replacing the connection points on your vehicle.
| Type of Base Plate | Use Adapter |
|---|---|
| Roadmaster Crossbar-Style (XL, EZ, EZ2, and EZ4 series) | DM9523001 |
| Roadmaster Direct-Connect (EZ5, MS, MX series) | DM9523032 |
| Duncan | DM9523017 |
| Reese Tow Champ and Valley Industries | DM9523019 |
| Blue Ox | DM9523041 |
Two straight, vinyl-coated safety cables provide added protection should the tow bar ever disconnect during towing. The cables are held off the ground by the included mounting clips. These clips keep the cables from dragging on the ground, preventing damage and tangling. Steel S-hooks with spring-loaded latches connect each cable to your towed vehicle's base plates and to your motorhome's trailer hitch.
The tow bar also offers a convenient storage rod for securing your coiled electrical cord (sold separately). The rod holds your power cord neatly out of the way and up off the ground.
Independent arm movement also allows for storage versatility. Easily store the tow bar out of the way, alongside your RV. The arms can be folded up to the right or to the left, or you can fold one arm to each side so that they are parallel to your motorhome's bumper. Just pivot each arm into position and a peg at the base of the arm will snap into a built-in tab, latching the arm in place so that you don't have to worry about it coming unfolded during travel.
For added protection, slip on the Demco tow bar cover (DM9523042 - sold separately) while the tow bar is folded up either to the left or the right against your RV.
Flat towing your vehicle is much more convenient than using a trailer or a tow dolly. These other options take up much more storage space, leaving you less room both at home and at the campsite. In addition, securing your vehicle to a trailer or tow dolly can be a hassle and more time consuming than hooking up with a tow bar.
There are 5 basic components needed when flat towing a vehicle: a tow bar, a base plate kit, a safety cable set, tow bar wiring, and a supplemental braking system.
The tow bar links your towed car to your motorhome. It attaches to the custom-fit base plates that install on the frame of your towed car. Safety cables ensure that your towed car does not separate from your motorhome in the event that your tow bar becomes detached. Tow bar wiring allows your towed vehicle's signal lights to sync up with your motorhome's tail lights, which is required by law in most states. Finally, the supplemental braking system - also required in most states - brakes your towed car when the brakes in your motorhome are activated, preventing wear on the motorhome and decreasing braking distance for your entire setup.

This lightweight aluminum, hitch-mounted, self-aligning tow bar has independent arms with trigger releases that make it easy to connect and disconnect, even on unlevel ground. Built-in rise/drop minimizes need for adapter. Stores neatly against RV.This tow bar is incredibly easy to use and our Grand Cherokee tracks very well even up to 70+ MPH. We are towing with our new Dynamax and are looking forward to our first long drive to Texas in December. Would highly recommend to anyone!!

One year later and I'm loving this tow bar. The base plate install on my 2019 Jeep went perfectly without any grinding or cutting. I really liked the fact it fit inside the shroud preserving my ground clearance. The tow bar is very simple to install/adjust and maintain. Hookups are easy even on unlevel surfaces. I've towed about 11,000 miles so far. One time, I made a mistake which damaged one of the tow arms. All I can say is the level of service I received from Demco was awesome. They went out of their way to ship parts to me at my campsite and talked me through the repair. I would buy again and you should buy one too!!
I purchased a base plate, tow bar, lighting and braking system from etrailer and everything was easy to install and operate. Online ordering from etrailer was very easy and all products were delivered quickly. Totally satisfied with my experience and customer relations follow up from etrailer.
It looks great. Cannot wait to use it.
For my 97 4RUNNER behind my 2012 Thor Astoria. 4RUNNER 3,600 lbs. +/- . Could have gone with the 5,000 pound, but went with the 7,500 pound model. It's really beefy and easy to attach and performs well. I'd buy it again. I have completely set up the 4runner through etrailer and have been pleased with their help and quick delivery. Karl
Works great!
I was very pleased with the service and it arrived in 3 days with free shipping.
Review from a similar Dominator in Tow Bar
etrailer provided me a five-foot dump hose extension. I had had no luck in finding that short a hose through other vendors local and national. Although the hose was back ordered at etrailer gave me an honest and accurate estimate of delivery and stuck to it. Their tracking software is excellent.

Absolutely the best RV sewer hose I've used. Highly recommend.

Rob B - 07/26/2017Review from a similar Dominator in Tow Bar
The product is good but, eTrailer is better. They helped me when nobody else would or could.
I will continue to purchase from the people there.
My next investment will be a soft start for my brand new travel trailer.
Review from a similar Dominator in Tow Bar
Although I have only unpacked this hose I like it. My hope is it will last longer than the others that have cracked or leaked.
I don't think any hose I have seen advertised will stand up to dragging on concrete, being stepped on, and are not very robust in freezing weather.
However this looks like it will do the job and I like the way it collapses and stays formed when it is set down.

I ordered tire and wheel covers, sewer hoses and end caps, 50amp to 30 amp adapter, and they work well with a great price
Review from a similar Dominator in Tow Bar
Absolutely love these sewer hoses. You can compress or lengthen them into what ever length you need within the limits of the hose. Very manageable and easier to use than the "floppy" type hose. We already had 2 and have purchased 4 more (we have 2 sewer outlets and sometimes need quite a bit of length). Highly recommend.

Review from a similar Dominator in Tow Bar
Needed new parts for our 12 ft open trailer. New coupler/latch, new jack and wheel, new led light, new 2 inch ball. Everything came 2 days earlier then expected. E-trailer has always come thru for me when I need trailer parts. The folks there are extremely helpful and knowledgeable when you ask a question. I will always get my parts from this company.

A very good hose, not flimsy like so many on the market. Stows easy in bumper of Travel Trailer. It will not snake out when you dump your holding tanks.
