Recommended Base Plate Kit/Tow Bar For A 2022 Ford Ranger 4x4

Published 11/10/2022

Question:

I just purchased a 2022 Ford Ranger and I am wanting to flat tow it behind my motorhome. I would be interested in a baseplate but I need help choosing the right one. I already own the braking system and everything else needed but may be interested in new tow bar since mine is outdated please advise.

Firstly congratulations on the purchase of your new 2022 Ford Ranger!

When it comes to the baseplates that we offer that are confirmed to fit your 2022 Ford Ranger I recommend The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-524459-5. I like this baseplate over the others because it has the easiest and quickest hook up and disconnection of a tow bar over the other baseplates that we have. The base plate brackets are virtually invisible and has a simple installation.

When it comes to replacing your outdated tow bar I would recommend The Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-522. I like this tow bar because it has a clean and uncluttered look and because when the tow bar is not in use, you can simply fold up the tow bar towards the RV, and secure it with the built-in storage latch. The tow bar has a high-tech powder coated finish that provides additional durability.

I attached an installation video link below of the Roadmaster Base Plate being installed on a 2021 Ford Ranger, the installation process will be the same for your 2022 Ford Ranger. If you need any further assistance on the matter please reach back out to me and I will be able to further assist you.
