Can a Roadmaster Falcon Tow Bar Be Used with a Blue Ox Base Plate?  

Updated 08/07/2026 | Published 07/29/2026

Question:

I am purchasing a 2023 Ford Bronco that is outfitted with Blue Ox base plate. I currently own a Roadmaster Falcon tow bar set-up used with my previous vehicle. Can the Falcon system be used with the Blue Ox base plate?

Hi Jay! Absolutely, you can use your Roadmaster Falcon tow bar with the Blue Ox base plate on your 2023 Ford Bronco, so you won't have to replace your whole flat towing setup.

If you have a Roadmaster Falcon, Falcon 2, or Falcon All-Terrain, all you'll need is the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter Brackets for Blue Ox Base Plates, Part # RM-031. If your tow bar is the newer Falcon 3HD, you'll need Part # RM-031-5 instead.

It's always nice when you can reuse equipment you already own, and in this case, the adapter makes it a simple solution. Which Falcon tow bar do you have?

Hey Jay, I bought this conversion kit a couple years ago from E-Trailer. Typical Roadmaster, they fit perfectly and came with very good instructions....not like they are difficult to install.

Jay I forgot to mention that the sheer pin requires a very large allen wrench to tighten. You could use vice grips on the side, but I don't like to scar up stuff.

@SteveS Roadmaster is a great brand. People love it. What are you flat towing if you don't mind my asking?
