Question:

Trying to find the best base plate for a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with auto transmission. I have a Roadmaster Blackhawk 2 with a serial number of 18579. Can I use the 249-6 or 249-5? My truck is not the Sport model. Thank you for your help.

Hey Brent, but what you'd want is the Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX1949 and since you have a Roadmaster tow bar you'd want the part # RM-031. We don't have a Roadmaster base plate kit that fits the non-sport models.

Hey Brent, how did the Blue Ox base plate and Roadmaster adapter work out on your Ram 2500? Your update could make it easier for the next person trying to match that setup.
