Ken & Sheila said:Steve, Roadmaster now has 2 styles of baseplates, one has the the cross support built in. That style does not require a cross bar and uses "hooks" that are ready to accept your Falcon's arms. Check with Roadmaster because it looks to me like your baseplate might not need a cross bar.
On my new Cherokee Trailhawk I opted for the version with a cross bar only because I wanted to use the Roadmaster Defender and it requires the cross bar.
Not having the cross bar makes removal that much easier.
BTW, Nice looking Jeep!

Ken, with a little ingenuity you can run the Tow Defender without a crossbar. I too am running the Roadmaster Tow Defender but to not use a crossbar. I machined a couple of tabs and connect mine directly to the arm at the connection at the Jeep. It's been working very well for the past several years now and it very easy/quick to connect/disconnect.
