Features to know about
Built for a Solid Tow: Fixed-Arm Steel Construction
This Blue Ox Base Plate Kit uses durable steel with a powder-coated finish to resist rust and corrosion. The sturdy design spreads towing force evenly across the chassis, helping prevent stress on the suspension during long hauls. With a distance between brackets of 32-1/4" and a bracket height of 22-1/2", it’s built for a stable, predictable pull every mile.
Keeps the Front End Clean: Low-Profile Reinforcements
When you’re not flat towing, only the attachment tabs stay visible. The low-profile reinforcements keep the front end neat without bulky hardware sticking out. It’s a simple, clean look that doesn’t get in the way when walking around the vehicle or working up front.
Straightforward Setup: Bolt-On Design with Included Hardware
You don’t need to weld anything to get this kit mounted. The base plate bolts securely to the chassis using the included mounting hardware, giving you a strong connection without fabrication work. It’s a practical choice for those who like straightforward installs with dependable fitment.
Ready to Match Your Tow Bar: Reliable Blue Ox Connection and Adapter Options
The fixed draw bars pair directly with Blue Ox tow bars for a solid and secure link. If you’re running a different setup, it’s adaptable with Roadmaster tow bars using adapter RM-031 or RM-031-5, or with Demco tow bars using adapter DM9523041 (each sold separately). That flexibility makes it easy to build your towing system around what you already have.

First dealing with etrailer has been the best experience hands down. Great staff, immediate support if I had questions. And the part I ordered was the blue ox tow adapter plates for my 04 hummer h2. It only took about an hour for the install and all parts came with it. All were very well made. I usually pull a 20' closed trailer behind my 41' coach but having the option to take my h2 is awsome and looks good too! Thanks etrailer!!! I would definitely recommend etrailer for all your trailer needs and I will be purchasing more in the future.

4 it's in solid, but the [finish] that was used killed it from being a five.
The installation took about four hours. I had a tight interference fit between the frame rails. I wish I had an 18-24" linear ram, but I didn't. So two hydraulic floor jacks, with 4 - 24" welding clamps, and two 12" C-clamps, a short 2# sledge did the trick. Nothing a little spray paint can't fix. Four bolt holes lined up nicely. Two 1/2" drilled holes from the bottom were easy leverage to set up. Two 1/2" drilled holes inside to outside, were quite the challenge to get behind the drill. All fasteners now torqued to specification with red locktite. Added the 1/2" safety cables, made an adjustment in the lower airdam. And presto, here you have it. Now time to set up diode kit, and brake away switch installation.

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?

The kit is well built and comes with all the necessary hardware to install. Installation was a breeze and asthetically blends in well with the front of the truck. Great job on the design and the production!

Not a bad install the nuts on the end of the wires was a little strange and odd to use and bend….. worked out great haven’t towed it yet ….bolted in and ready. There’s not really any place on thes 06 Wrangler to put those safety cables to the frame. Alex T in sales was great.

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! : )

1 year later, it’s been used for over 1500 miles and held up great. I did the install and had a weld shop tax the bolts do they wouldn’t back out.

Perfect fit, well built of high quality materials. In my mind you just can't get much better than Blue Ox. The only issue is that the BX1120 doesn't have removable twist lock tabs. The fixed draw bar mounting tabs are at just the right height and position to play havoc with your shins when the draw bar is not installed. I solved that problem with a shin guard I made of 2 inch schedule 40 PVC. (see photo) Fits perfectly, guards the breakaway switch and lighting connector when not in use, and solves the shin interference problem.

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.

Base plate is well built and fit well. As I would expect from Blue Ox products. My only complaint and the reason for 4 stars would be the horrible instruction. Pictures are absolutely horrible. Not a big deal for the mechanically inclined, but not everyone fits that category.

Very simple to install, just need to drill a few holes in the frame. Comes with everything you need except a couple basic washers (mine came with 3 lock washers and 2 standard flats for 4 bolts)…
Would be nice to have the torque specs also in the instructions but the busted bolt is on me!

I'm not giving the products the stars as much as the woman who helped me select them and turned me onto the "road-master" product line. Road-master had a "towed-car" hitch for my 2002 Mazda Protege. It was a blessing to have met her acquaintance.

First of all, the staff at etrailer has always been there with answers with anything. Fitment, installation, usage etc. Second. The install was easy with the enclosed instructions. I did it by myself with only getting help to raise and lower the bumper. After several thousand miles of towing, still tight and still looks great

1999
Jeep
Wrangler
I had a simple ball hitch setup for my 1999 Jeep Wrangler for towing behind our RV. Our first trip out with it, the bolts that attached the bar connectors to the front of the Jeep came loose. I was fortunate that they didn't come out completely and cause a major accident. I was able to tighten them again, and we had no additional issues on our trip. Of course, this made me extremely nervous with my 'budget' route to tow the Jeep so I began looking for a better, more reliable solution.
Blue Ox was the name that kept coming up so I purchased the BX1120. The build quality is outstanding, it's extremely solid and very durable. Installation time was about an hour and a half once I had the right tools, couldn't find my 1/2 inch socket set! I'm using the Blue Ox Alpha tow bar with this setup.
I will say that having a second set of hands to install is valuable, my son had to come help me get the drivers side bolts in while I held the steering housing in place.
All in all, I'm very pleased with the product. It went in easy and should save my nerves on our next road trip!

Installed this on a 2014 Chevy Express 3500 15 passenger van. Install was time consuming, as holes needed to be drilled (went through 2 drill bits) and the nuts must be fished through the frame, then "caught" by the bolt. I think there were 12 of them! Instructions were clear, though, and I've safely towed without incident over 7,000 miles in the past year. Definitely rock solid! Paired up with a Blue Ox Aventa 7,500 lb tow bar.

- Does Blue Ox Base Plate for 2005 Hummer H2 Just Replace Tow HooksYes, you are correct; your 2005 Hummer H2 will not have a large plate on the frame when installing the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX4102. I have added a link to the instructions which detail this, but essentially these base plates are simply going to replace your existing tow hooks, like you mentioned. There are a number of other parts you'll need to flat tow your 2005 Hummer H2, and I'll recommend the parts you need. - Tow Bar: Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar # BX7420 - Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode...
