A base plate mounts to the towed vehicle's frame behind the front bumper and gives a motorhome-mounted tow bar a strong, vehicle-specific attachment point for flat towing. With the direct-connect design, the tow bar attaches directly to the base plate's removable tabs, eliminating the need for a crossbar, which makes hooking up and disconnecting quicker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoadmaster recommends this direct-connect style for motorhome-mounted tow bars, with the exception of the Sterling. Trimming of the spoiler, air dam, grille or plastic fascia may be required on some models. To complete a flat-towing setup, pair the base plate with a compatible tow bar, safety cables, a towed-vehicle wiring kit and a supplemental braking system.
