Video Transcript for Let’s Check Out the Roadmaster Base Plate Adapter for Tow Ready Tow Bar

Hi everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a brief look at this Roadmaster Base Plate Adapter for Tow Ready Tow Bars and replacement crossbar for your Tracker Tow Bar. This is going to convert your Roadmaster base plate brackets to fit a Draw-Tite, Reese, Valley, Eaz-Lift and Tow Ready tow bar. And this is also going to replace the full length crossbar that came standard with your Roadmaster Tracker tow bar. Now if you do plan to use the removable Roadmaster brackets XL or EZ, you will need to add quick the quick disconnects that you see there on your screen, RM-201.

Those are sold separately and also as you can see there on your screen, I do want to make sure that you know that this is not going to fit the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Brackets, as you can see there on your screen, the EZ5, MX or MS Series brackets, so just so you're aware of that. Now this does include the mounting hardware and what I did there is I just kind of loosely mounted it to where it's going to mount and go through. Instructions are also included to guide you through the simple installation process and this does have a limited lifetime warranty. Well, I think that's gonna wrap up our quick look today. I do hope that our time together was helpful for you.

Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.

  • Can a Curt Tow Bar be Adapted to Fit Roadmaster EZ Base Plates on a 2007 Toyota Yaris
    There isn't an adapter to go from the Curt tow bar to the Roadmaster base plates on your 2007 Toyota Yaris. What I recommend is a similar tow bar that is compatible; the Tracker # RM-020. And if you want to make the base plate arms easily removable the only other part needed is a set of quick disconnects # RM-201.

  • Base Plates, Tow Bar, and Accessories Needed to Flat Tow a 2008 Jeep Wrangler X
    The Roadmaster MX base plates, # 1429-3, that you have referenced will fit the 2008 Jeep Wrangler X. However, the Hidden Hitch tow bar that you have is not compatible with the MX style base plates. You have 2 options. First, you could use the MX base plates and also get a compatible tow bar, the most popular of which is the Falcon 2, # RM-520. Or, you can get different base plates, # 1429-1, and use an adapter, # RM-025, with quick disconnects, # RM-201. The Hidden Hitch tow bar that you...

  • How Does Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Adapter Attach to Base Plates on 1996 Suzuki Sidekick
    The Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Tow Bar Adapter, # RM-025, attaches to Roadmaster base plates on the 1996 Suzuki Sidekick using 4 bolts, 4 washers, and 4 nuts; two apiece for each side. If you need base plates, we have several options for the Sidekick depending on which model you have. I have included a link below to the available base plates for a 1996 Suzuki Sidekick.

  • Base Plates, Wiring, and Safety Cables to Flat Tow a 2001 Subaru Forester
    For your 2001 Subaru Forester, you will need to use base plate # 909-9 since your Forester does not have a brush guard. This base plate is the XL style. This means that you can use your Falcon Tow Bar, like # RM-520 or # RM-522. You may also be interested in the Roadmaster Quick Disconnect Tow Bar Base Assembly, # 910021-00, for your Falcon tow bar. This assembly will allow you to connect the tow bar to the above base plates. In addition to base plates and a tow bar, there are a few other...

  • Tow Bar Base Plate for 1997 Geo Tracker 2-Door 4 X 4 for Use With Draw-Tite Tow Bar
    We offer three different base plate kits for your 1997 Geo Tracker 2-Door that will fit as long as your Tracker is not equipped with brush guards. The link provided will take you to our page for all base plate kits. Roadmaster offers a choice of fixed-arm and removable-arm types. Removable arms allow the vehicle to retain more of its stock appearance when not being flat-towed and will help reduce bumps on your shins.

  • Will Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Towbar Adapter Fit 711-4 XL Base Plates
    Roadmaster replacement crossbar/adapter # RM-025 will fit the XL base plates you have, # 711-4. But in order to make the XL arms easily removable with this bar you will also need Quick-Disconnects # RM-201. I took some measurements of the bar and have included a picture showing them. The distance from the center between 1 set of tabs and the center of the other set is 30-5/8 inches.

  • Tow Bar Compatibility with Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plates
    The Roadmaster Tracker Tow Bar - 2" Ball - 5,000 lbs # RM-020 is not compatible with the EZ5 Base Plate # RM-521448-5. The Roadmaster EZ5 series base plates will only work with Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch and will not work with tow bars that require a hitch ball. For a compatible tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs # RM-520 which would not require the crossbar for this combination. To use the Tracker Tow...

  • How to Attach a Tow Bar to the Roadmaster # 1528-1 Base Plate on 1998 Honda CRV
    The method of connection will depend on which manufacturers tow bar you are using. Some vehicles use a base plate kit that features removable draw bars, which might be what you have (see photo). The type of base plate for the 1998 CRV uses standard base plates, which are not removable. There is also a base plate kit, # 1528-3 that would allow the draw bars to be removed. For a Roadmaster tow bar, you would use a set of quick disconnects, part # RM-201. One half of the disconnect would...

  • What is the Length of Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Tow Bar Adapter # RM-025
    I went out and measured the distance between where the legs of the tow bar attach on the Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Tow Bar Adapter, # RM-025, and the on center measurement is 31 inches. The distance between the mounting bolt holes that attach to the vehicle base plates is 28-1/2 inches on center. If you are looking for the overall length it is approximately 34 inches.

  • What Parts do I need to use a Reese Collapsible Tow Bar to tow a 2001 Mazda B2500 Pickup
    We do not carry Reese base plates, and to my knowledge, they do not make them. There is a tow bar adapter, # RM-025, available to allow you to use Roadmaster Baseplates with the Reese Tow Bar. As you found, the base plate kit we have for your B2500 is part # 483-1. I assume the Reese Tow Bar you are wanting to use is part # 63180. You will need an adapter, part # RM-025, in order to get the Reese Tow Bar to mate with the Roadmaster base plates. Keep in mind that this tow bar is rated...

  • Length of the Tow Ready Tow Bar part # 63180
    The total length of the Tow Ready Tracker Tow Bar, part # 63180 when measured from the end of the coupler to the vehicle attachment points is 46 inches. There isn't a set length that a tow bar has to be in case that is your question. If this tow bar is to be used with Roadmaster base plates, you will also need an adapter, part # RM-025.

  • Base Plate Kit, Tow Bar, Safety Cables, and Light Kit to Flat Tow a 2000 Ford F-150
    To flat tow a 2000 Ford F-150 with a tow bar like the Tow Ready Adjustable Tow Bar, # 63180, you will first need a base plate kit. If you have 4-wheel drive, use base plate kit # 456-15 (will not work with a diesel). If you have 2-wheel drive, use base plate kit # 492-1 (will not work with Lightning models). You would then need to add Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Tow Bar Adapter, # RM-025, to be able to use the Tow Ready tow bar # 63180. Keep in mind that this tow bar is rated for...

  • Can a Jeep Wrangler be Flat Towed by the Front Bumper
    I have a solution for you, however, I would not recommend mounting a tow bar directly to a bumper on a Jeep, whether it is OEM or an aftermarket bumper. Jeep does not recommend towing the Wrangler with the OEM bumper because it was not designed to pull the weight of the vehicle. Also, mounting a tow bar to a bumper would require drilling. I spoke with my contact at Pavement Ends and she said drilling into this bumper would void the warranty and they do not recommend using it to tow the...

    I went out and measured the distance between where the legs of the tow bar attach on the Roadmaster Base Plate to Tow Ready Tow Bar Adapter, item # RM-025, and the on center measurement is 31 inches. The distance on center between the mounting bolt holes that attach to the vehicle base plates is 28-1/2 inches. This adapter is designed for use with the Tow Ready Tow Bar, item # 63180. I took photo of the adapter and added the dimensions I took, for you to review.

  • Recommended Flat Towing Equipment For A 1994 Geo Tracker
    The Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit - Fixed Arms Item # 118-1 is a confirmed fitting base plate for your 1994 Geo Tracker and to attach it to your Reese tow bar you'll need the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter # RM-025. To flat tow you'll also need a braking system, tow bar wiring, and safety cables. I have the following recommendations for you below: Braking System: Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional Item # HM39524. This system provides intense,...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Behind an RV
    There isn't an attachment to fit the Curt Tow Bar with Adjustable-Width Arms # C19745 to the tow hooks on your 2000 Jeep Cherokee. What you can do is use Roadmaster base plates # 1418-1 or # 1418-3 with adapter # RM-025 but it is not the best fit and the parts haven't been tested together by the manufacturers. But instead of doing all of that I would just go ahead and use either of those base plates listed above with the Roadmaster Tracker tow bar # RM-020. Fewer adapter pieces means a...

  • Are Roadmaster Base Plates Compatible with the Curt Adjustable Tow Bar for a 2000 Chevy Tracker
    I spoke with my contact at Curt and she stated that the adjustable tow bar 19745 has brackets on it that are universal. In other words, he could not say if it was a fit with Roadmaster base plates. Also, Roadmaster does not list an adapter for the Curt tow bar. Based on this information I cannot say whether or not the Curt tow bar is compatible with Roadmaster base plates. What I recommend is to stay with a Roadmaster tow bar or at least a tow bar that Roadmaster does make an adapter for....

  • Availability of Replacement Draw Bars for Roadmaster Base Plate on 2004 Honda CR-V
    The removable draw bars for the two base plates you reference are not compatible. Roadmaster MX Base Plate Kit # 1541-5 uses removable draw bars # C-000637 and # C-000638. Roadmaster base plate kit # 1541-1 uses removable draw bars # C-000293 and # C-000294. You can get replacement arms using # RM-ARMS. There is a link on the page at the right that is actually a form that needs to be filled out so we can be sure Roadmaster makes the correct arms. I recommend contacting our customer...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2002 Ford F-150 Super Crew
    The Roadmaster base plate adpater bar is designed to fit base plates that would be on a specific vehicle and does not attach to the vehicle itself. Before you do anything else, consult the truck owners manual to determine if it can be flat towed and if there are any special requirements. To add base plates on a 2002 Ford F-150, if it is a 2-wheel drive model and is not a Harley Davidson or Lightening model then you can use # 492-1 for base plates.

  • Why Do I Need To Use A Base Plate Kit To Flat Tow 2001 Jeep Wrangler With My 2001 Dodge Ram 1500
    You would need to use a base plate kit to safely attach the tow bar and have a secure, safe towing setup to flat-tow your 2001 Jeep Wrangler with your 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. Before towing, you will want to check the towing capacity of your Dodge Ram as you will not want to exceed it. You will also want to consult your Jeep manual for specific steps needed to take when flat towing. Some vehicles must be equipped with a transmission lube pump, axle disconnect or free-wheeling hubs before they...

  • Is an Adapter Needed to use Reese Tow Bar with Roadmaster Base Plates
    You will need an adapter to attach your Reese tow bar to the Roadmaster base plates. The adapter is # RM-025. But check the specs on your Reese tow bar because I believe it is the same as # 63180. And if that is the case then it is only rated for 45 miles per hour. I would consider using a different tow bar that is a direct fit to the base plates and does not have a 45 mile per hour speed restriction such as the Falcon 2 # RM-520, or even the Tracker # RM-020.
