Base plates are vehicle specific for use with a tow bar like your Roadmaster Falcon # RM-522, so they do have to be purchased for a specific vehicle, and there are limitations for vehicle years and models as well. There would be no reason to cut off or remove base plates. view full answer...
The pins in the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU23XR are for disengaging the locks that hold the arms into the plates, so there is not an option available without the pins. view full answer...
A vehicle base plate for a tow bar is a vehicle-specific item that is designed and engineered to fit on a particular vehicle. Although it might be theoretically possible to modify a base plate so that it fits a vehicle other than the one it was designed for, I cannot in any way recommend doing so. The geometry of the front of the Terrain and the F150 are different enough that I highly doubt it would even be possible. Keep in mind that altering a base plate assembly in any way will void... view full answer...
Yes, the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BLU55XR is confirmed to fit the 2021 Ford Escape hybrid. It comes with all needed hardware and we even have an installation video created to walk you through the whole process. For a compete flat tow set up, you will need base plates, tow bar, safety cables, indicator light wiring and supplemental braking. For the 2021 Ford Escape, I recommend:
- Base Plate Kit, Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BLU55XR

Base plates are designed for the GVWR of the vehicle so there isn't a known maximum for the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98965 because it's only tested to the maximum GVWR.
The base plate is more of an anchor and the tow bar does the actual pulling, so you'll want to insure that you choose the correctly rated tow bar for the curb weight of your Equinox as well as any items you load into it.
Since the GVWR of your Equinox is 4,400lbs to 4,900lbs my recommendation is the etrailer... view full answer...
The smaller holes on the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # 1528-3 are there to padlock the arms to prevent theft.
If you need a padlock, I recommend the Master Lock Covered Solid Body Padlocks - 1/4" Shackle Diameter (2 Pack) # 141T. I recommend this lock set because it has the vinyl covering that will protect it under your vehicle. view full answer...
The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX3622 that you linked to is for a Subaru not a Toyota but there is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX3795 that is fit guided for the Toyota.
While per the manufacturer, you should not attempt to flat tow a Toyota Tacoma, anything can be made to flat tow if you make enough changes. This is not the norm, and actually only very small percentage of people will go to this much trouble and expense to make a vehicle able to be flat towed, some do.

The Roadmaster Guardian Rock Guard # RM-4000 is only designed for specific Roadmaster set ups - base plate and tow bar - so I recommend going a different route than the Roadmaster Falcon # RM-522 to use a rock guard on your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98948.
The best option is to use the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR with the Sentry Deflector for Demco Tow Bars # DM9523135.
The SD tow bar is similar to the Falcon in that it is a... view full answer...

The Roadmaster # RM-521448-5 will add about 40 lbs to your Jeep Wrangler.
In addition to the base plates, you'll also need a tow bar, safety cables, wiring, a supplemental braking system and possibly a high/low adapter if the height difference between the base plates and the hitch on the motorhome is greater than 3 inches.
I've linked to a help article that will show some recommendations for the products mentioned above. I'll also link to an install video that you might find helpful. view full answer...
Roadmaster quotes the installation time of the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-523182-5 at 3 hours, however that is with their installers who pretty experienced and they know how to install these base plate kits quickly.
An inexperienced installer can expect to take a bit more time.
If you're interested in a complete setup, you're going to need:
-A set of tow bars like # RM-677,
-A braking system # HM39524,
&
-A wiring kit like # RM-154. view full answer...
I'm not certain which adapter you used, but the # RM-031 adapter would install at the end of the tow bar arms and allow you to attach to the Blue Ox base plate on your Jeep Cherokee.
To complete your towing system, you'll need safety cables like # RM-643, a wiring harness like part # RM-154, a wiring umbilical like part # RM-164-7 and a supplemental braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot 3 # BLU37TR. The Patriot 3 is a portable unit that will take only moments to install and remove.
