It sure will Shane! The Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screen for Towed Vehicles item # RM-4750 is indeed compatible with your etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar item # e34ZR and etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e64FV. It's going to install around your Winnebago Vista's 2" receiver and then fasten to connector you'll install on your tow bar arms.

I linked an installation video below so you can see how to get it setup.

This really is a good product. It protects the towed vehicle very well. Only adds less than 5 minutes to the hookup procedure.

Yep it works well with the eTrailer towbar. It took a little “tinkering” to get the best position on the receiver so the net wasn’t too tight or too loose.

This is one of the easiest protectors I have ever used, it provides very good protection to the front tend of the toad, I would highly recommend it

Hi Shane, We did a trip down the Oregon coast last year with our new hitch and the defender. The defender worked great, but be sure to measure the distance between. the netting and your tail pipe. My tail pipe exited from the back end or our motorhome and it was just barely 10" below the netting. I bought the heat deflector and I am glad that I did. I managed to melt one of the plastic clasps from the exhaust but the netting survived. Ray

@RayM Thanks for the tip Ray! I appreciate you taking the time to leave it. The Heat Shield item # RM62GR is what's recommended for the Tow Defender item # RM-4750.

We love this product. We had Roadmaster install it and it does what it is advertised to do. Easy to put on and take off and great protection for our tow vehicle.

We have the RM-4750 The Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screen for Towed Vehicles connected to our Class A motor home and flat tow a Jeep Gladiator. We had debated about getting a broom style rock deflector but decided on the Tow Defender because we did not need to figure out how tall the broom should be. We are very pleased with our decision to make this purchase. This item rolls up to the rear bumper of the RV when not in use which keeps it out of the way at the campsite. Once the Jeep is connected to the RV, it only takes a couple of minutes to deploy the protective screen.
