Does Roadmaster Base Plate Kit part # RM-521559-5 Come with Safety Chain Anchors
Question:
Thanks Jameson, I probably didn't give enough information in my original question. I'm going to be using the Roadmaster Blackhawk that has channels for the Roadmaster EZ Hook Safety Cables pictured below. From my understanding the safety cables can only go in those channels if they are the EZ Hook Safety Cables (please correct me if I'm wrong) that have the small quick hook on one end. I'm trying to achieve the stream line look pictured below and keep the cables in the channels when disconnected. On the EZ Hook Safety Cables product page I never see it hooked to Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-521559-5 (maybe because that base plate is so new). I only see it connected to a base plate that requires a quick-disconnect crossbar. So with this additional information is there away to achieve the stream line look below where the safety cables are in the channels of the Roadmaster Blackhawk's tow bar and if so which safety cables should I buy to make that happen? Thanks for your insight

The Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-521559-5 that you referenced does have safety chain tabs built into it so you do not need to add anchors. I attached a picture of them pointed out that I took from the install instructions.
