What is Difference Between EZ5 and EZ4 Roadmaster Base Plate Kits for 2019 Jeep Wrangler
Question:
I am looking at the Ez5 and ez4 base plate kits for my 2019 Jeep Wrangler and want to know what the difference is between the two?

Expert Reply:
For your 2019 Jeep Wrangler the EZ5 kit part # RM-521453-5 is a fit and what makes it unique to the EZ4 part # RM-521453-4 is that the EZ5 does not require you to use the crossbar that comes with Roadmaster tow bars like the Falcon 2 part # RM-520. The kit attaches directly to the tow bar whereas with the EZ4 you have to use the crossbar.
Not having to use the crossbar makes connecting and disconnecting a bit more easy, but the trade-off is that you can't use a Rock Guard like the # RM-4000 unless you have a crossbar.
