Direct-Connect Baseplate for Efficient Tow Bar Connection
The Roadmaster Vehicle Baseplate is designed for direct connection of your tow bar, eliminating the need for a crossbar. This innovative system simplifies the process of connecting and disconnecting your tow bar, making it the most user-friendly option available. It is particularly suitable for use with motorhome-mounted tow bars, ensuring a seamless towing experience.
Each baseplate is custom-made to fit specific vehicles, ensuring a precise fit and optimal performance.
