Recommended Base Plates for 2012 Jeep Liberty to Use with Roadmaster Sterling Tow Bar
Question:
I have a sterling tow bar. Which Roadmaster base plate would be needed? I also have a Roadmaster Invisibrake. Is that compatible with this Jeep? Is there replacement hardware and wiring available for the invisibrake?

Expert Reply:
If your 2012 Jeep Liberty doesn't have a rockguard or skid plate then I recommend the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit # 521433-1. If you do have a rockguard or skid plate then you will want the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit # 521434-1, which will actually replace the rockguard/skid plate. Both of these options are directly compatible with your existing Sterling Tow Bar.
Your current Roadmaster InvisiBrake # RM-8700 will also work great with your Jeep Liberty. If you are using a lighting solution that taps into the wiring of the Jeep (such as the Hopkins # HM56204) you will just need to add the Brake Light Relay Kit # RM-88400. This is required to prevent the Jeep's brake signal from overriding the turn signal from the RV when applying the brakes during a turn. If you use magnetic tow lights like the Optronics # TL21RK the relay won't be needed.
We do indeed have replacement parts available for the InvisiBrake such as the Monitor Wire Patch Cord # RM-450008, Wiring Harness # RM-945204-00, and the Brake Pedal Clamp # RM-945202-00. We also have the Second Vehicle Kit # RM-98700 that includes all the needed parts to move your InvisiBrake over to a new vehicle. Just let me know if you are needing a different specific part and I will be happy to see if we have it available.
