Recommended Base Plate and Flat Towing Setup for a 2023 Jeep Gladiator
Question:
Looking at buying base plates for Jeep Willys Gladiator for Roadmaster tow bar. Noticed that Sterling tow bar is not listed as one of the tow bars to be used with the one with removable stubs. Need advise on what to buy.

Expert Reply:
For your 2023 Jeep Gladiator I recommend going with the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521453-5. This base plate kit will work wonderfully with the Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-576.
You'd just use the included pins and clips to attach the tow bar to the base plate and you'll be all set.
Additionally, if you're looking to complete your setup, you're also going to need:
-A wiring kit # RM-15267,
&
-A braking system # SM99243.
