We ended up using the diodes instead of the bulbs, which helped avoid installing additional diodes when we installed the braking system. This kit included the older plug style, but it was easy to wire up.

Ordered this and was told it was out of stock till December, this was ok. But when the base plate and tow bar came so did the accessory kit. Wow that was great service.

The Blue Ox Accessory Kit for the Aventa LX Tow Bar, the extra (2) Diodes, the Fuse By-Pass Switch, the Aventa LX Tow Bar and the Patriot Brake Unit all arrived in tact and in a timely manner. I really appreciate the help in defining what I need to tow my '09 Yukon behind our new Newmar Dutch Star. So far the wiring is complete - and works! I hope to have the Tow Bar hardware done this week - i'll try and get a picture. Thanks again!

Blue Ox stands head and shoulders above other tow bar products/systems and eTrailer had just what we needed in stock! Thanks, guys!
by: Rvhobo08/20/2020
Viewed and researched many tow packages. In our opinion Blue Ox is far superior to others out there, and after a year of use performs Perfectly.

A good package to complement the tow bar installation. This is a must buy to complete the installation.
by: Gregg P05/02/2019
Everything so far I have purchased has performed perfectly but even better has been the customer service which has been exemplary. Every question I have had has been answered in a timely and knowledgeable way. Thank you.

See what our Experts say about this Blue Ox Accessories and Parts
- Follow-Up for JEFF LAYTONI recommended the Roadmaster Wiring kit, part # RM-154 because it has diodes included which help prevent any electrical feedback from your RV, so it does help protect your electrical system. There is another option you may be interested in. It is the Blue Ox Towing Accessories Kit for Alpha and Aventa LX Tow Bars, part # BX88231. This kit includes a 7-wire to 6-wire harness, a bulb and socket tail light kit with all required wiring, a receiver lock that secures the tow bar to the RV,...
view full answer... - Can Blue Ox Towing Accessories Kit Tow Bars Wire to Vehicle with Combined CircuitsThe wiring kits of the # BX88231 will work well on your 2006 Jeep Liberty. Even though your vehicle is wired for separate turn signals from stoplights this kit can wire so that your taillights will activate with combined circuits which will work just fine. The dual intensity bulbs of your vehicle taillights will blink and illuminate correctly with the stoplight circuits of your vehicle. Or you can use the bulb and socket kits that come with the kit which would provide the same function. I...
view full answer... - Is an Adapter Needed To Flat Tow a 2012 Jeep Wrangler if the Motorhome has 7-Way Blade ConnectorAs long as the 7-way on your Motorhome is wired as a combined system (which is how most are wired) then you will not need a taillight converter. If the motorhome connection is combined, the umbilical is combined (7-way and 6-pin cord), and the Jeep is combined, all the systems are combined and compatible. To test and make sure that the 7-way is wired as a combined system, you can use a circuit tester like the Draw-Tite Circuit Tester # PTW2993 and test the blades on the 9 o'clock position...
view full answer... - Recommended Flat-Towing products For 2008 Honda FitThere are five items you need when flat-towing your 2008 Honda Fit. You need base plates, a tow bar, safety cables, lighting for your Fit, and most states now require a supplemental brake system. The base plates I recommend are the Blue Ox Base Plates, part # BX2252. For a tow bar I recommend the Blue Ox Alpha, part # BX7380. This tow bar lets you hook up your towed vehicle, even when you are on ground that is not level. For safety cables I recommend part # RM-643. I also recommend...
view full answer... - Availability of Base Plates for 2005 Chevy Avalanche 4x4We do indeed offer base plates for the 2005 Chevy Avalanche 4x4. My research indicates that your Avalanche is capable of being flat towed but there are usually very specific steps that must be followed before flat towing the vehicle. You'll need to: 1) Place transmission in Park. 2) Turn the engine off, but leave key in 'on' position. 3) Set the parking brake. 4) Hitch Avalanche to tow bar and tow vehicle according to instructions 5) Shift the transfer case into Neutral. (vehicle CAN roll...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 SLTThe correct base plate kit for your 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 is the Blue Ox kit part # BX1711 that you referenced. Between the two wiring kits you referenced the correct one will be the one that will match the connector you have at the back of your 2014 Tiffin. If you have a 7-way there you would want the # BX88231. If you have a 6-way round there you would instead want the # BX88190. The # BX88231 does not come with safety chains, the # BX88190 does so you would need the # BX88197 if you...
view full answer... - Adapter For Flat Towing Behind Motorhome with 4-Pole Trailer ConnectorYou'll just need a 4 pole to 7-way adapter likee # 37185. Ground the white wire on the adapter to the motorhome chassis, plug in the 4 pole connector on the adapter to the 4 pole connector on the motorhome, coil up the remaining wires and tuck them up out of the way and you're done. If you'd like the RV battery to deliver a maintenance charge to the battery of the towed vehicle, you'd need the # ETBC7L install kit. The kit includes the 37185 adapter, and a wire that will need to be ran...
