Roadmaster makes two types of baseplates for most towed vehicles.

Direct-Connect

This style allows you to connect your tow bar directly to the baseplate, eliminating the need for a crossbar. This is our easiest system to connect and disconnect. If you are using a motorhome-mounted tow bar (except Sterling), this is the baseplate you should choose.

Crossbar-Style

This style accommodates Roadmaster tow bars and accessories by utilizing the crossbar and/or quick-disconnect system as a mounting platform.

If you are using a Sterling or a car-mounted tow bar, you need this style of baseplate.

Unique State Road Laws That RVers Should Know

Here are five reasons why you need supplemental brakes...

1. Safety
Supplemental brakes...
• ...take the load off the motorhome so that both
vehicles brake in tandem, taking significantly less
time and distance to come to a controlled stop.
• ...relieve stress on the tow bar and the mount-
ing brackets — a panic stop without supplemental
brakes is a leading cause of tow system failure.
• ...reduce the chance of catastrophic brake failure
at the motorhome, as a result of sustained braking.
2. It’s required
According to the American Automobile Association,
most states, plus many Canadian provinces,
now require supplemental brakes if the towed weight
exceeds 3,000 pounds (see reverse).
3. Chassis warranty
Workhorse/Chevrolet will void your chassis war-
ranty if you tow more than 1,000 pounds without
supplemental brakes; Ford stipulates 1,500 pounds.
4. Wear and tear
Because they aren’t braking for two vehicles, your
motorhome brakes last longer.
5. It just makes good sense
Every other trailer on the road today — a fifth
wheel, travel trailer, boat trailer or a semi-trailer
— has its own braking system. When you’re towing
two or three extra tons, shouldn’t you have a supple-
mental braking system to stop it?
