Will the Roadmaster Guardian Tow Defender Work with The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates?
Question:
Do any of the direct connect adaptors for the 2023Gladiator have provisions to use the Gardian protective shield on the tow bar
asked by: Jim S
Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521453-5 is actually not going to work with the Roadmaster Guardian Rock Guard # RM-4000 but I do have another option for you.
Instead of using the Roadmaster direct-connect base plates, you can use the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU53FR with the Roadmaster Tow Bar to Blue Ox Brackets Adapter # RM-031.
This combination will still allow you to be able to use the Roadmaster Sterling and will let you also use a similar rock guard, the Blue Ox KarGard Towed Vehicle Protector # BX8870.
