Question:

The RV we are purchasing has a Roadmaster Nighthawk towbar. What baseplate do I need for my 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2?

Expert Reply:

We can get your 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2 set up with base plates that you can use with the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676, so long as your Colorado is not the ZR2 Bison model (the Bison model does not have a base plate fit). Roadmaster does not make base plates that fit the ZR2, so what you will need is a different brand as well as an adapter; what will work is the following:

- etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98966

- Roadmaster Blackhawk All-Terrain, Sterling, or Nighthawk Tow Bar to Demco Base Plate Adapter # RM-034-5

This combo will give your '19 Colorado ZR2 base plates that fit and allow you to use the Nighthawk tow bar. Along with this, you will also need wiring, a battery disconnect, and supplemental braking system if you don't have them. For that I recommend going with the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154, Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect with Switch # RM-766, and Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39494.
