Hey Carrie,
I got your picture and it looks like you have an older Roadmaster StowMaster Tow Bar # RM-501 and that you're missing the vehicle side of the crossbar mounting brackets # RM-222. You'd also need a Roadmaster crossbar-style baseplate on your towed vehicle. If you want to tell me the year, make, model of the vehicle I can look up the correct one and recommend any other components you might need for the journey.
