If you like a clean, factory-style look when you’re not towing, this design keeps things neat. The Blue Ox removable arms twist out easily, leaving the base plate nearly invisible behind the bumper. Receiver covers plug into the sockets to keep dirt and debris out, so everything stays clean and ready for your next trip.
Connecting the tow bar is simple with the twist-lock system. Just insert each arm into the receiver, rotate until it locks, and secure it with the pin. When it’s time to unhook, pull the pin, twist, and remove. It’s a quick process that makes solo hookups or campsite departures smooth and stress-free.
This base plate bolts directly to the chassis with no welding required. The sturdy steel design spreads towing forces evenly to help protect suspension components during long-distance hauls. The powder-coated finish resists rust and corrosion for dependable use through miles of weather and road conditions.
Whether you’re already running Blue Ox gear or using another brand, this base plate connects easily. It pairs directly with Blue Ox tow bars for a reliable fit and can adapt for use with Roadmaster tow bars (RM-031 or RM-031-5) or Demco tow bars (DM9523041), each sold separately. Integrated mounting points make it easy to attach an electrical connector plug bracket so your wiring stays organized up front.
For those who like doing their own setup, this kit is straightforward to install. It bolts securely to the chassis using included hardware—no welding needed—and includes receiver covers for a finished look once everything’s in place. Specs are dialed in for planning your setup: distance between brackets is 24" and bracket height is 23". It’s a solid, weekend-ready project that leaves your front end looking sharp when the arms are off.
