Expert Reply:

This RoadMaster Base Plate to Blue Ox and Demco Tow Bars Adapter, part # RM-033, is usually used to attach a set of Roadmaster base plate to Blue Ox or Demco towbars. If that is what you are looking to do this would work perfectly for you. The overall length of this product is 32 inches, from the outside of the bolt holes this product measures 25-1/2 inches.

If you need a base plate kit I recommend the Roadmaster Classic Base Plate Kit, part # 1123-1.

For tow bars I would recommend you get a Roadmaster Tow Bar, part # RM-520. I attached instructions below for you to check out.

Next you will need a lighting solution. If you need a temporary solution I would recommend the Magnetic Towing Lights, part # RM-2120. These use magnets to attach to your towed vehicle to provide the tail light functions.

If you need a permanent solution you would want a Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit, part # RM-154. I attached an installation video for this product below, as well as a link to an FAQ article on tow bar wiring that you might find informative.

Some states require that you have a supplemental braking system when you are flat towing a vehicle. If you need or want one I would recommend the Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Proportional Braking System, part # RM-9400.
