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:
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.

Recently, we decided to setup our 2008 Wrangler JK to be towed behind the motorhome. All I needed were base plates because we had a previous tow car. After doing a search for parts, I decided on etrailer.com to be the source. The product search was easy and the descriptions along with the large photos helped me determine my mechanical skills were enough to install the plates. The order process was quick and easy and the tracking info was helpful. A three day delivery delay occurred due to a snow storm in the mid-west. Once the parts arrived, I installed the parts in about four hours. The instructions were easy to follow, the pictures helped determine the procedure for installing, and everything fit as expected. I could not be more pleased with the base plates and etrailer.com. Thanks very much!
I ordered these brackets to tow my Jeep Wrangler behind my motorhome. Having used this brand before I knew the quality I would get and was not disappointed. The original order had 2 left side brackets and no right side brackets so after a call to customer support the correct part was sent. They even gave me a follow-up call to make sure I was taken care of. Mistakes happen but how a company responds to those mistakes is what really matters. These are people you can count on. I am a customer for life.

Still working without a single problem
I bought these base plates from eTrailer for my 2008 Jeep Wranger. They bolt right right on the Jeep with the included hardware and work great. I have been using my Stowmaster Tow Bar for over 20 years and have never had an issue with it or the many different base plates I have purchase for my vehicles in that time. I highly recommend Roadmaster base plates and the Stowmaster tow bar.
Always great dealing with etrailer, their customer service is excellent. They give great suggestions and guidance on the right products for your needs. They are a fantastic resource...saving you both time and money.
The Roadmaster cross-bar base plate kit works great, was at a fair price and shipped quickly. We have had it a year now with no problems. Works as advertised and is the right towing solution for our motorhome.
Purchased base plates for my Wrangler on line and was very impressed with the service from etrailer. product was delivered a few days earlier than expected and exactly what was ordered. Installation was implemented according to the instructions provided with no surprises.
It was a great fit to my 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. I struggled with some crusty bolt on the Jeep but no issues with the base plates. I might suggest to Roadmaster that the installation would have been easier if they had included 4 of the threaded backing plates instead of the two they provided. Some of those bolts were in some pretty tight confines.
Brkt fit perfect and after 9000 miles of towing is still just like the day I installed it. I also used the custom brkt under the seat to mount my air brake piston to activate the the brakes in the jeep while towing..thanks
Great customer service. I was sent an email with tracking number, and also a video attached on how to install the item. I will be ordering more from etrailer.
The brackets fit perfectly and were pretty easy to install. The nuts with the wires were tricky to get in place but overall I am happy with the product and the way they work.
Very easy to install although the pictures in the instructions could be larger. Very pleased with this product
No problems with installation. One thing that could be changed is that the outer bolts should be the same as the iner [ with a threaded plate}
Excellent service. The order was shipped very fast and arrived in 2 days. I will always shop etrailer first.
Very high-quality part easy to install detailed instructions
It works well I just wish the unit was smaller to manage putting it in and out.
Only used a couple times , but it works great, no problems.
well designed fit perfectly . Allowed our jeep to be towed nicely
Quick delivery! Great advice & guidance about products needed ! Would use again !!!
Great product, installed easily and mates well with the RM520
People are pleasant to deal with and delivery couldn't be faster. Very excellent company to do business with.
good service and response to an order that got mixed a bit!
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.
