Both Roadmaster and Blue Ox make quality tow bars and related components like base plates for flat towing. You can refer to the two linked articles for a comparison of their features but I can tell you our installers do like the Blue Ox equipment. However, there are also a wide range of adapters available to allow use of a Roadmaster base plate with a Blue Ox towbar, and vice-versa, since there are many products in use and not everyone is starting from scratch with their flat towing set-up.

If I had to pick a favorite tow bar it would be the Blue Ox Avail LX # BX7420. This motorhome-mounted tow bar combines a hefty 10K rating, non-binding telescoping arms with protective rubber boots and it includes the required safety cables. It can be adapted for use with Roadmaster base plates with the Roadmaster Base Plate to Blue Ox and Demco Tow Bars Adapter, part # RM-033.
