I can help you out, use the RoadMaster Base Plate to Blue Ox and Demco Tow Bars Adapter # RM-033.

You can use this adapter with a roadmaster base plate. This will let you connect to a blue ox tow bar.
It is not compatible with RoadMaster EZ5, MX, or MS series brackets.

That said you would need to use it with a base plate like the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-522203-4.
