Roadmaster # 3122-1 XL Style Base Plate Tow Bar Compatibility
Question:
can you use any tow bar with this baseplate?
asked by: John
Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster # 3122-1 XL Style Base Plate you mentioned is compatible with any of the Roadmaster Tow Bars, or to use a Blue Ox tow bar, a # RM-032 adapter would be needed. The Base Plate is compatible with a 2004-2009 GMC Canyon/Chevy Colorado, as long as it doesn't have the Xtreme package, as well as the 2010-2012 Canyon/Colorodo, with the exclusion of Xtreme and Z71 models.
You'd also need a tow bar, safety cables, a wiring harness so the taillights of the truck operate with the turn signals of the motorhome, a supplemental braking system and possibly a high/low adapter.
If you'd care to reply with the exact model year of your truck, I'd be happy to make some recommendations for you. I've linked you to some FAQ articles about flat towing that you might find helpful.
