When you’re setting up for flat towing, a solid connection to your chassis makes all the difference. This Blue Ox base plate kit bolts directly to your vehicle’s frame with the included mounting hardware—no welding required. The sturdy design spreads towing forces evenly to help protect your suspension through every mile of travel. With a 22-3/4" distance between brackets and a 17" bracket height, it’s easy to plan your tow bar setup for proper alignment.
Not every towing setup needs to look bulky. The low-profile reinforcements on this base plate keep the front end clean and streamlined when it’s not in use. The crossbar support beam blends in well with the bumper for a tidy appearance, and the fixed draw bars stay unobtrusive while remaining ready for hookup whenever you need them.
Durability matters when you’re logging serious miles behind an RV. This base plate is built from heavy-duty steel with a powder-coat finish that resists rust and corrosion over time. The solid welds and reinforced mounting points create a dependable link between your tow bar and chassis, giving you peace of mind on long hauls or in changing weather conditions.
Whether you run Blue Ox, Roadmaster, or Demco gear, this base plate adapts smoothly to your setup. It works directly with Blue Ox tow bars and can be used with Roadmaster (adapter RM-031 or RM-031-5) or Demco (adapter DM9523041) tow bars when fitted with the correct adapter, each sold separately. That flexibility lets you keep your preferred equipment while building a reliable flat-towing setup from front to back.

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! : )

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.

it still looks nice and working as it should. i made it also double as a base to bolt up my winch. the bonus thing is when i need to tow it i can undo 4 bolts and take my winch off. i think you guys at e-trailer should consider making something like this as a option. i have pictures of it installed but how do i send them to you?

Thanks for your review, Richard! It sounds like this was a fairly involved installation, but we're glad to hear everything came together successfully in the end. We appreciate you sharing the details of your process, especially the tips about the tight frame rail clearance and drilling challenges, as those insights may help other RV owners tackling the same project. Thanks for including the photo as well. Your finished installation looks great! Now that it's installed and you're moving on to the diode kit and brake away switch, what adventure are you looking forward to most this summer in your RV?
