  • Is there a Tow Bar that Does Not Require a Base Plate?
  • Sorry, Kevin we don't have anything like that. I am not even sure that's a thing outside of a tow truck. All of our tow bars like the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Reese or Valley Base Plates item # e97ZR you were looking at require a base plate on the tow vehicle to attach to. The Curt Adjustable Tow Bar item # C19745 would be the only exception but it has universal brackets that have to be bolted onto the tow vehicles bumper. It tops out at 5,000 lbs.

  • Is Blue Ox Tow Bar Needed For Blue Ox Base Plates on 2010 Scion xD
  • Hey there Don, that's a good question as there's a lot of different tow bars available, and the answer is no, you are not limited to only a Blue Ox tow bar for your 2010 Scion xD using Blue Ox Base Plates # BX3778. That said, it is easier and I do recommend going with Blue Ox as your first choice because you won't have to use any adapters; so if it were me I would go with the Blue Ox Alpha 2 # BX7380. But if you're okay with using adapters there are tow bars that come with them, the Roadmaster...

  • Will Curt Adjustable Tow Bar Fit Roadmaster Base Plate Kit
  • The Curt Adjustable Tow Bar # C19745 you purchased will not fit any base plates. It is specifically designed to mount on a flat metal section of your bumper using the universal bumper brackets. If you want to use the # 1439-3 on your 2012 Jeep Wrangler you would need a tow bar like the # RM-520. Keep in mind, this base plate kit is only designed to fit the Call of Duty- MW3 Edition and the Warn Elite bumper.

  • How to Tow a 2017 Nissan Versa Using a Demco Tow Bar and Blue Ox Base Plate Kit
  • Hey Donald, thanks for reaching out again! What you'll want to do is install the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1852 on your 2017 Nissan Versa and then use the Demco Tow Bar Adapter Brackets for Blue Ox Base Plates # DM9523041 so you can still use your Demco tow bar. It's a roundabout way of getting things done, but enough people have been in your circumstance that the tow bar companies started coming out with adapters to help keep everyone from having to buy completely new flat tow kits.

  • Is Blue Ox Tow Bar Compatible With Other Brand Base Plates on 2005 Ford F-250
  • You do not have to use the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2177 on your 2005 Ford F-250 if you don't want to. However, you will need an adapter to use a Blue Ox tow bar with a different base plate brand. For example, if you would rather use the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # 4403-1 with removable arms all you need is the Blue Ox Tow Bar to Roadmaster EZ5, MS, and MX Base Plates Adapter Brackets # BX88185.

  • Demco vs. etrailer Base Plate For 2024 Ford Maverick
  • You have a good eye Richard, as there is not a difference between the etrailer and Demco base plates that fit your 2024 Ford Maverick: - etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit e64FV (discontinued) - Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit # DM77YV Both will fit your '24 Maverick and work exactly the same way so there honestly is not a difference.

  • Recommended Flat Towing Setup for a 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  • Hey Erik, so what you've got left apart from the Roadmaster Falcon # RM-522 that you already have is a base plate, a braking system, and a wiring kit. For a base plate kit, I recommend going with the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1110 using the Blue Ox Base Plate Adapter Brackets for Roadmaster Tow Bars # BX88151. This base plate kit is custom fit to your vehicle so it'll be a pretty straight forward install, and when paired with the adapter brackets you'll be able to also use your Flacon...

  • Can The Crossbar Be Removed From The Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar
  • Since you have a crossbar-style baseplate with the # RM-521453-4 you would need to fill out the # RM-ARMS form linked below and reach out to Roadmaster to get replacement direct-connect arms in order to drop the crossbar. Once the arms are replaced you'll be able to take the crossbar off the Falcon 2 and just use the quick-disconnect attachment points on the tow bar to connect directly to the baseplate.
