No worries. You can use the Blue Ox # BX1303 tow bar, and then use a # BX88178 adapter. The adapter will allow your Demco Aluminator, Excali-bar or Kwik-Tow towbar to work with the Roadmaster base plates.
To complete your flat towing system, you'll also need safety cables like # RM-643. You will also need a lighting solution so the lights on the towed vehicle work in tandem with those of the RV. Custer offers a simple wireless solution, part # LIW-LDTL. The fact that absolutely no cutting or splicing is needed is what makes this option so attractive. A supplemental braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR is required in almost every state and Canadian province.
I've linked you to install videos for the Patriot Braking System and the base plate kit. I've also linked to some articles about flat towing that you might find helpful.
