Tow Bar That Works For Roadmaster Base Plate Kit 1185-1
Updated 01/25/2021 | Published 01/21/2021
Question:
I have a Ready Brake Elite toe at from NSA RV. I also have a Roadmaster base plate kit 1185-1 for my Lexus. What part do I need to add to the base plate arms so I can connect the tow bar. It does not come with a crossbar, and I can get clevis connections for most brands. Are there options that are just the crossbar with connections that I can use to connect the two? I thought I had seen stand-alone crossbars on etrailer before, but now I can’t find them. Can you please point me in the right direction? Thanks!

I do have a solution for you, however, I do not see any way to connect your Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # 1185-1 to the Ready Brute Elite tow bar. Your best bet is to go with Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain Tow Bar # RM-522 as this will easily connect to the Roadmaster base plates that you already have for your Lexus. This has a 6,000lb weight capacity and attaches to a 2" receiver.
I have attached a demonstration video for this tow bar.
