Expert Reply:

Your Rangefinder II Tow Bar BX4322 has a unique attachment system and the only adapter kit we have to match it are the Roadmaster Base Plates Adapters # RM-037.

The adapters aren't compatible with the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98949 you're looking at, but they are compatible with the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-4.

So in order to continue using your older tow bar you'll need the Adapters # RM-037 and Roadmaster Base Plates # RM-521448-4.
