Tow Bar Recommendation for Use with Roadmaster MX Base Plate
Question:
I purchased the Roadmaster 4414-3 mounting kit for my wifes 2010 Ford Escape. I am wondering it the Roadmaster Tow Bar RM-020 will fit my mounting kit 4414-3. Can you please let me know soon as you can? I would really appreciate the help. Sincerely,

Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster base plate kit you have part # 4414-3 is an MX style base plate that does not require a crossbar. Because of that your Tracker part # RM-020 is not compatible with it.
The most popular tow bar that is compatible is the Roadmaster Falcon part # RM-520. This is a great tow bar because it can store on the RV instead of the dinghy like the Tracker and because it has telescoping arms which make connection/disconnection easy even on uneven terrain.
