Designed for use with motor-home-mounted tow bars, the direct-connect brackets are virtually invisible, easy to mount and remove, and they eliminate the need for a quick-disconnect crossbar on your tow bar. Installs on your vehicle's frame.
Features:
Note: Roadmaster direct-connect base plates will only work with Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch, such as the Nighthawk, Sterling, Blackhawk, Blackhawk 2, Falcon, or Falcon 2. These base plates will not work with tow bars that require a hitch ball.
The drawbars, or front arms, on this base plate kit are supremely easy to mount and remove. Just insert them into the brackets and twist to lock them in place. To remove each arm, simply tug the built-in pull pin to disengage the lock, twist the arm back and pull it out of the bracket. 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.

However, the base plate packaging was sub standard and the base plate was marred and need paint touch up.

Flat towing the Maverick is a breeze with the Roadmaster Faceplate. No issues towing and very happy with it.

The install on my Ford Maverick is clean and functional, so this is more of a customer service review... excellent customer service!
During the 4-day towing set-up install, the forecast was for freezing temps and my rig was not winterized. I called in mid panic and the motorhome was moved indoors.
A few months after using the tow set-up, a minor problem developed. I called and the CSR apologized and said, I can see how that might be frustrating, and a replacement cable (slightly longer) was sent free of charge.
Fits well. One of the Bolts broke however. Not sure if user error or defect. 2024 Ford Lariat Maverick
Well constructed. Works great looks really good on the Maverick.

Flawlessly. Great product perfect fit.
After reviewing your great install videos several times I decided to install myself. Fairly easy if you take your time and follow the instructions although I had to trim a bit more than I thought based on the video. Having the right tools like a multifunction trimmer helped. I really like the look compared to the Blue Ox baseplate option even though I have a Blue Ox towbar. I bought the RM - Blue Ox adapter pins and all works well. We are on a 7000 mile 4 month trip and no issues so far.
Absolutely great fit to my Ford Maverick. Everything is hidden and not in the way from walking by the front of the truck. Instructions were adequate, found a YouTube that helped, yet I found there could be a little improvement in the instructions.
Product was shipped 4 days before the estimated delivery date! I believe that is from hard work and dedication from the workers at etrailer. Good Job!!
Best one on the Ford Maverick. Professional install eecommended
Attached relatively easily. Tows the Maverick just fine. It isn't too obvious on the truck and minimal cutting to make it work.
Purchased a tow bar base plate - great price and very fast shipping. Good job!
Very well built, heavy duty

Great very well built
Just what was needed
Doing a good job.
Easy install and working great
Love my knew tow package All Road master base plate falcon Tow bar & Invisibrake system
I chose the Roadmaster Base plate purely for cosmetic reasons. The Blue Ox install looks terrible on the Maverick. Sure, with the Roadmaster I have to trim part of the radiator louver, but being in the South, I don't see it being a problem. Fortunately, I have all the parts to go Blue Ox towbar to Roadmaster towbar. Looks like it will work perfectly!
Looks well build and fits perfectly with the Maverick looks. Instructions were very good but it took longer than expected to install due to very tight clearance of some bolts (thus the 4 stars instead of the 5). I have yet to use it on the road, but very satisfied so far.

This baseplate has worked perfectly. I like that it looks good compared to the others. Adding the blue ox adapters worked good too since I already had the blue ox tow bar.

You definitely can use a rust resistant paint like Rustoleum to touch up the base plate. It is unfortunate that it arrived this way. I will have our Customer Service team contact you.
