There is an adapter that will allow you to use your Ready Brute Elite tow bar with a Roadmaster base plate kit. It is the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter item # RM-032. However, you will need to use the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit item # RM37RR on your Maverick.

The item # RM97RR does not work with the adapter you'll have to use.

I have linked a review video below.
