The crossbar-style hidden brackets attach to your vehicle's frame to provide attachment points for your tow bar. The visible portions of the brackets can be removed when you are not towing.
Features:
Note: Fish wire bolt leaders (C58400 - sold separately) are required for complete installation.
The square drawbars, or front arms, on the crossbar-style base plate kit are simple to mount and remove, easily securing with hitch pins. Once the drawbars have been removed, the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. On most automobiles, the brackets are mounted within the grille, where they remain not only unseen, but protected from scrapes and scuffs as well.

The crossbar-style hidden brackets attach to your vehicle's frame to provide attachment points for your tow bar. The visible portions of the brackets can be removed when you are not towing.My husband and I were able to install the Roadmaster base plates on our 92 Jeep Cherokee in just a couple of hours. It went on pretty much the same as the demonstration video on the etrailer web site. The minor differences were addressed in the printed instructions that were included in our package. We haven't put it to the test yet as we still need to tackle wiring for the Roadmaster Even brake system that we purchased second hand. We will be towing our Jeep with our 93 Safari Trek. Customer service provided by Marty was excellent. I will provide pictures at a later date.
I recieved the shipment yesterday however I won't be able to install it on my Jeep until we get back to Alberta after spending the winter in southern California. My only question is where do I get the items that bolt on to the base plates that attaches onto the tow bar?Haven't seen those advertized.
This is the third time I have order base plates and electrical hook ups from etrailer and love this company. We have a 1979 MCI Bus conversion and it is difficult at time finding things for towing etc for it because of age. Not with etrailer, they have it all. We have towed a 96 S-19 chevy, a 98 Jeep was next and this year we got a 2001 Jeep Cherokee which we got the electrical kit for from etrailer.com and the base plates are still on the way. Everything fits nicely and if you are unsure of how it all goes together just watch their video''s on the etrailer website which are very informational.
Thank You etrailer.com for being there when we need you. See you all down the road....
Just home from a 4600 mi trip, towing a 1995 jeep Cherokee. Never had a concern for the base plates or the curt tow bar. Rock solid and easy removable when needed with a few pins.
I recently did a cost comparison on a set of baseplates 1418-1 . I forwarded the comparison to etrailer.com. the price was matched with a 10% discount . After placing the order, the customer service rep.inquired about others requirements that i may need for installation such as lights, and braking. The customer service was very knowledgeable of the parts and installation and easy to work with. I recieved my parts within three days they look great.
Thank you Etrailer
A well engineered product that mounts solidly to the chassis. No cutting or trimming of any stock components. With the tow bar mounts removed the mounts are recessed from the bumper and nearly invisible.

The parts are working perfectly. Thank you.
Bolt on installation takes a few hours; the more rust on your car the longer it will take. These brackets fit perfectly and are very strong. The kit comes complete with all new bolts.
The base plate was perfect, as I expected, since it was the third one that I had installed on Jeep Cherokees. We towed the Jeep from Florida to Colorado and back with no problems, even though I needed your help to install the plate onto the bent chassis of my Jeep.
My order arrived sooner than expected. The price was better that I could find elsewhere with the free shipping. I installed the brackets myself and no modifications were required to complete the install. The instructions were good and all of the necessary hardware was included. Overall I am very pleased.
Fast free shipping, Allison was very helpful and knew exactly what I needed for my 01 Jeep Cherokee. Took about three hours to complete the installation, great product and great customer service.
Went on just like you said and everything was just like except on my 96, it was much easier to secure the right hand bumper bolts after I took the vacume tank loose.
Fast delivery and very well made. Welds look good and a good coat of paint on them. E Trailer always sells top quality parts.
Received towbar parts everything looks great, now ready to put on vehicle.
Parts personnel know their stuff.

The parts arrived extra fast and fit my vehicle with no problems. They were easy to put on with the instructions provided. I have already used them and they work great. Would refer a friend to this site.

The baseplate is probably going to outlast the Jeep. I’ll use them again if I get another Jeep JK model.
great service. No problems w/ product. It did take longer than the 2 1/2 hours to get them on. However temps in AZ may have had something to do w/ placing them on in >100 degree weather. Thanks for the product
Fast delivery easy to install quality p roduct.
Prompt shipment from order to delivery. Fit as expected.
Super fast and super nice dealing with. Thank y’all.
Great prices super fast shipping
I was pulling my truck using the roadmaster crossbar and to my surpass the towbar broke in half as I was towing. Good thing I was in town only going 20 miles poer hr.
etrailer service is and has always been stellar. My order was correct and was delivered very quickly. The only reason I made this a four instead of a five was that the rear bolt position of both base plate brackets where welded on crooked. Each small plate was at a different angle from each other. In my opinion whoever welded them wasn’t paying attention to quality control. Because I was on a time crunch for my departure on a trip and could not wait for replacements (and I needed the vehicle for local driving) I made the brackets work. Other than that the installation went smoothly and I was able to test tow my 2004 CRV a couple of times without incident.
Base Plate kit was complete and generally straight forward to install. Some instructions and dimensions were not explained in detail as they could have been. Especially the modifications made to the air dam were totally off. Most of the air dam is cut off to fit in front of the base plate. This was installed on a 2014 Chevy Captiva four cylinder car.

I believe the part you are looking for is 910021-00 from Roadmaster. It is the Quick Disconnect Tow Bar Base assembly.
