The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Baseplate for 2016-2019 Ford Explorer and Explorer Sport with NO ACC mounts straight to the frame, eliminating the need for a crossbar and reducing installation time. With its powder coated steel build, it is made to withstand rust and wear over time. The arms detach quickly and leave behind a low-profile appearance. Perfect for motorhome-mounted tow bars where easy use and durability are essential.
