This base plate is made to handle long-distance flat towing without putting strain on your suspension. The sturdy steel design spreads the towing force evenly across the chassis, keeping the front end stable mile after mile. It bolts directly to the frame and doesn’t need any welding, so it stays solid and dependable on every trip.


If you prefer a setup that doesn’t stick out, this design keeps things neat. The low-profile reinforcements blend into the front bumper for a streamlined look when you’re not towing, so there’s no bulky hardware catching your eye. The crossbar support beam sits close to the vehicle’s lines while still offering the strength needed for heavy-duty towing.
You can hook up straight to any Blue Ox tow bar—no adapters required. If you’re using Roadmaster or Demco gear, it adapts easily with add-on brackets (RM-031, RM-031-5, or DM9523041, sold separately). The bracket spacing is 24" center-to-center with a 17-3/4" bracket height, making it easy to match up with your existing towing equipment.
Everything you need comes in the box for a simple bolt-on install. The included mounting hardware secures to existing chassis points without welding, making it a job most DIYers can tackle with basic tools. Once it’s installed, hooking up your tow bar is quick work—perfect for getting on the road sooner and towing with confidence.

After a year of occasional use I am still very happy with the BX1120 baseplate. Its a joy to use high quality products from a high quality supplier. Ive always gotten the highest quality support from the folks at Etrailer. Thanks folks.

I have towed my 2005 Jeep LJ over 10,000 miles this year and never had an issue with the Blue Ox base plates. I would buy them again

Glad the install went smoothly, Grant! Even with those weird handle nuts (which I agree are kind of odd). What's the first trip you have planned? And I will let Alex know what you said as well! : )
