Tow Bars Compatible with Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plates and Demco Excalibur Tow Bar Compatibility

Question

Question:

Is there an adapter for the EZ5 base plate to a Demco Excalibar tow bar? I know the RM-033 will not work.

The Roadmaster EZ5 baseplats are not compatible with the Demco tow bars. The only tow bars compatible other than the Roadmaster tow bars which do not need an adapter are the Blue Ox tow bars when using the # BX88185 adapter.

The Demco Excalibur tow bar is compatible with the Standard Roadmaster baseplates using the # RM-033 adapter you mentioned. It is also compatible with the Roadmaster EZ, EZ2, EZ4, and XL base plates using the # RM-032 adapter. It is also compatible with Blue Ox Baseplates using adapter # BX88310.

Okay Bob, so I did a bit of digging around and apparently this is a known issue that Blue Ox is aware of. The 41" distance between the mounting points is too wide and non-standard which is why your tow bars are being stretched too far.…
