Ready Brute 2 - 8,000 LB. Aluminum RV Tow Bar Kit (no braking system)
This is the Ready Brute 2 package and does not come with a brake. Our Ready Brute Elite II is the right choice for most applications. The Read Brute should only be chosen if you already have another brake or plan to use a brake other than our Ready Brake. You'll need a braking system to tow safely and legally.
This Ready Brute Elite II complete RV tow package includes everything you need to tow behind your RV for $500 to $1500 less than the competition. We bundle all the vehicle-specific parts you'll need (Baseplate, light wiring) with our best-in-class aluminum tow bar. Our goal is to send you everything you need to tow a vehicle safely, legally, and easily for one low price. Just tell us what car you plan to tow in your order notes and our experts with put together all of the parts you'll need to tow.

Our tow bars have every feature you'd expect in a premium tow bar (non-binding, telescoping arms, easy hookup and stow, and corrosion resistance).
Feel free to call us at 800-933-3372 if you'd prefer to talk with an expert or order over the phone.
This package includes:
- The Ready Brute II Tow Bar (8,000 lb capacity, non-binding, easy hookup)
- Blue Ox Baseplate and clevises
- Our Break Away kit (This will stop the tow car in an accident or breakaway situation)
- Universal Tail Light Wiring
- New for 2025- Our braking system is now even easier to install! Drilling a small hole in the firewall is no longer necessary.
- Our Ready Brake turnbuckle for even simpler hook-up
- Steal Clevis connectors included
- DL-100 Monitor System
- A cover for the tow bar and a tote bag
- Safety cables
FOR ROADMASTER BASEPLATES ONLY: THE "DIRECT CONNECT" STYLE BASEPLATE IS HIGHLY PREFERRED OVER THE "CROSSBAR-STYLE". IT IS RARE, BUT IF A DIRECT CONNECT STYLE BASEPLATE IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR YOUR VEHICLE YOU WILL NEED TO PURCHASE A ROADMASTER CROSSBAR ASSEMBLY WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PRICE OF THE PACKAGE.
IN SOME CASES WE CAN HOOK OUR TOW BAR TO TOW-GRADE AFTERMARKET BUMPERS BUT THEY WILL NEED A SPECIAL CLEVIS AND YOU'LL NEED TO CALL US SO WE CAN GET MEASUREMENTS AND GET YOU A QUOTE.
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A BASEPLATE GIVE US A CALL AND WE CAN QUOTE YOU A COMPLETE PACKAGE WITHOUT A NEW BASEPLATE.
THE "CLEVISES" ARE THE ENDS OF THE TOW BAR THAT HOOK UP TO THE BASEPLATE YOU ARE USING. OTHER ONLINE SELLERS DO NOT INCLUDE THIS CRITICAL COMPONENT THAT YOU WILL NEED TO USE THE TOW BAR. LET US GET IT RIGHT FOR YOU THE FIRST TIME AND GET YOUR TOW BAR SYSTEM STRAIGHT FROM THE FACTORY!
Please add your tow vehicle details to the order notes and one of our towing experts will reach out to you by phone or email before shipping your order. This way we can make 100% sure we send you the correct vehicle-specific parts.

One of the best tow bars on the market.

Ready Brute Elite works so well. Easy to attach, strong with a durable finish, instruction easy to follow and well written. Another great product of the USA. Workmanship is simply the best! Hats off to American manufacturing, well done.

Lightest, simplest, tow/brake system I could find. Beats the snot out of the "bowling-ball bag" types that you have to lug into and out of the driver's compartment.

Product quality is excellent, and apparent immediately upon opening the box. Also, I chose to work directly with the company, and they were great. I had a unique situation where I couldn't use the company mount on my Jeep (due to having a plow mount already), so I provided dimensions for my Jeep's D-rings (see attached picture) and the company made a custom fit mount. If I recall correctly, I don't think there was even an extra cost for customizing the mount. I didn't really have any problems, but I know the company would have been super supportive if I had needed anything. The connection system is very well designed, and easy to align. My sixteen year old son typically does the connection both ways 100% himself. After it is connected, there is a connection for the lighting, one to activate the brakes, and one as a safety that will lock the tow vehicle's brake if it someone got loose. Last year was the first towing our Jeep Unlimited. We towed from CT to the rockies, spent two months cruising around the Rocky Mountains, and then towed back from UT to CT again. We've been doing these trips for five years now, but this is the first time we towed a vehicle -- it was a massive improvement for the trip. I definitely recommend based on quality, connection design, and company support.

We thought we were having some problems with our brute elite and on our way home from Texas to Minnesota decided to make a stop there to have them check it out. We were blown away by how responsive they were and went through our tow bar within an hour. Then they talked to us about what problems we thought we had. What a great team!! If we had any doubts about NSA we sure don’t now and will recommend them to all our toads friends! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Works as expected, the adjustable and locking arms make the tow bar easy to use. Breaking system works perfectly.
