Show me your flat tow setup.

[Stic-o]

My truck has now become the towed vehicle from the one towing, as we graduated from a travel trailer to a Motorhome.

I want to flat tow the ranger, but do not want to lose the front tow hooks. Are there any options for this or do I need to build my own setup?

Thanks in advance

Hi Stic-O

Congrats on the MH purchase. You will loose the tow hooks to put on tow brackets as far as I know. I have Roadmaster for my setup. The bracket receiver(Base plate) goes where the tow hooks are, and the brackets are twist lock. I was the first purchaser of the Roadmaster design. I delt with Glenda quite a bit during their development. Glenda offered me blank twist lock slugs and I made my own tow hooks out of the slugs and huge U bolts I found on the web.

I think there is a pix of these tow hooks... Will try to find it...
