Product Description

The Roadmaster 523193-5 is a direct-connect base plate kit with EZ Twistlock removable tabs, made for the 2018–2019 Chevrolet Equinox with front-wheel drive. 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. The tow bar connects directly to the twist-lock tabs, which can be removed when you're not towing.

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. Before flat towing, confirm in your owner's manual that your Equinox's drivetrain can be flat towed and follow its towing procedure.

Pro tipBefore you order a base plate

  • Match year, make, model and trim. Base plates are vehicle-specific, and trims with adaptive cruise, front sensors or a different bumper often need a different plate.
  • Confirm your vehicle can be flat towed. Check the “recreational towing” section of the owner’s manual — not every car, transmission or drivetrain can be towed four-down.
  • Mixing brands needs an adapter. Base plate and tow bar brands use different connection styles (for example, a Blue Ox base plate with a Roadmaster tow bar). We’ll tell you exactly which adapter you need.
