Hey Joseph, thanks for reaching out!
We do have a base plate that installs that way, and for that I recommend the etrailer Base Plate # e98946. If you check out the linked photo from the instructions, you'll see what this looks like once it's installed.
Then for a matching tow bar I recommend the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. If you do not have all of these components just let me know and I can make some additional recommendations for you.
