Product Description
The Demco 9511013 Excali-Bar 3™ is a heavy-duty motorhome-mounted (receiver-mount) tow bar for flat towing larger vehicles behind an RV, such as full-size SUVs and pickups. It is rated for 10,500 lb, mounts in a 2" x 2" receiver on the motorhome, and connects to a base plate on the towed vehicle. It is built from steel with an E-coat finish and weighs about 46 lb.
The self-supporting, independent arms telescope and move separately, so the motorhome doesn't have to be perfectly lined up for hookup, and the tow bar self-aligns as you pull away. Demco's non-binding trigger release makes it easier to unhook. A built-in 1-1/2" rise/drop plus a tilting head helps match the hitch height to the base plate, and the arms swing to either side for storage on the motorhome.
Compatibility
- Fits Demco base plates directly
- Other brands' base plates require the matching Demco tow bar adapter, sold separately
- 2" x 2" receiver hitch on the motorhome
A 10,500 lb tow bar does not raise the limits of the rest of your setup. Never exceed the lowest rating among the motorhome hitch, tow bar, base plate and safety cables, and confirm your vehicle can be flat towed. Contact us with your base plate brand if you'd like help confirming fit.

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.
