Hey Charles. I have a Roadmaster baseplate for a 2026 Ram 1500 Warlock but I don't see that Ram has a Warrior addition option and Blue Ox does not have anything listed as being compatible. It's the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # RM86DQ. This baseplate installs where the tow hooks are mounted.
Here are the rest of the parts you'll need to flat tow a 2026 Ram 1500 Warlock:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar item # e84ZR
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
What kind of motorhome do you have?
