Product Description
The Demco 5899 is a pair of pull ear covers for Demco base plates. The pull ears (or tabs) are the points on the base plate where the tow bar connects. When you aren't towing, these covers fit over the pull ears to give the front of the vehicle a cleaner look and help protect the connection points.
They're a cosmetic accessory, not towing hardware, and are commonly replaced when the originals are lost or damaged.

Pro tipTow bar setup tips
- Rating first. The tow bar’s capacity must be higher than your towed vehicle’s loaded weight.
- Keep it close to level. Tow bar makers specify how far the motorhome hitch and the base plate connection can be apart in height — use a rise or drop receiver to bring them in range (see your tow bar’s instructions).
- Check base plate compatibility. Different brands connect differently; mixing brands requires the right adapter.
