I have a solution but no they will not. Instead, you will want the Replacement Swivel Ear for Roadmaster Sterling or Nighthawk Tow Bar item # RM-910661. This will allow you to use the Roadmaster Nighthawk Tow Bar for Blue Ox Base Plates item # RM-677 with the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # RM-521559-5.
