The removable arms of each Roadmaster base plate kit are all different. While they look similar they are not interchangeable so for your 2019 Ford Ranger you'd need a base plate kit like the # RM-524459-5 and for a 2019 Jeep Cherokee part # RM-521452-5 which would work great with a tow bar like the Roadmaster Falcon # RM-522.
