Hello Brad, thanks for reaching out. Yes the Roadmaster NightHawk tow bar is only directly compatible with Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates. You can adapt it to a Demco tabless base plate using the following:
- Roadmaster Sterling or Nighthawk Tow Bar Adapter Brackets for Demco Classic Base Plates # DM9523062
This will replace the clevis end on your tow bar and make it compatible with your base plate
What kind of vehicle are you flat towing?

Hey Brad, did the adapter brackets work out for connecting your Roadmaster NightHawk tow bar to the Demco base plate? I'm asking because it would be great to know if this solution helps others with a similar setup.
