Question:
Do you have a Roadmaster base plate for a 74 Bronco or a universal plate that I could make work? I have the complete assembly for my 2023 Jeep. Id like to use my removable brackets for both the Jeep and the Bronco. Thanks Bob

Hi Bob; there are no custom base plates made for your 1974 Ford Bronco. The only thing we can offer are the Blue Ox Heavy-Duty Universal Bolt-On Base Plate Brackets # BX88266. These will fit any vehicle but will likely require bumper modification and potentially reinforcement.
Assuming you have a Roadmaster tow bar you will also need Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter Brackets for Blue Ox Base Plates # RM-031. This works with BlackHawk, Falcon, Falcon 2, and Falcon All-Terrain tow bars. It also works with Sterling tow bars with serial numbers up to 16,500. If the serial number is above 16,500 you need # RM-031-5.
