Recommend the Ready Brute Elite tow bar because it has an integrated dinghy braking system and costs just about the same as other tow bars without a braking system. Recommend researching base plates from ALL manufacturers and determine the base plate which with you will be happy. Also recommend that RED thread locking liquid be used vice the Blue because the Red thread lock is ALMOST permanent.

NOTE: Thanks Forum for Spell Check working!

Which ever one is rated heavy enough to do the job and which ever one meets your needs. I am happy with Blue Ox Aventa LX.

We tow ours with a Roadmaster setup and I'm very pleased with the way it works. Ours has a Rzr riding in the bed also.
