Easy to install, once bumper cover is removed. The supplied bolts were barely long enough. They should be about a 1/2 inch longer. Once installed, the baseplate is barely noticeable and looks like a factory component.

The package was delivered to my home with no damage. The baseplate with its parts along with the rest of my order was all packed neatly with extra cardboard and paper packaging material around everything so nothing would get damaged in transit.
The installation instructions were clear. The parts fit perfectly. I’ve purchased parts from etrailer before and never had any problems. Also, the few times I’ve had questions I’ve always been able to talk to someone who is knowledgeable and very helpful.

Base Plates mounted on my 2022 Ford Bronco is holding up 100. Great quality finish that has not rusted. I have seen base plates from other companies being installed on Broncos and they are making major modifications. Not my Curt Custom Base Plates. An easy DYI with no major modifications. We have towed our Bronco 13,000 miles behind our Class A and its a flawless tow. These base plates were also priced much better then other brands. Thank you Etrailer!

@TroyS Glad to hear it's been working well for you! Sounds like you are getting a lot of use out of it as well! Where all have you been?

Disassembly of the front clip of the Colorado was challenging as far as fit up curt kit worked well. The gal at etrailer was very knowledgeable fast shipping. Finally every time I do business with you I’m never disappointed.

Instructions stink, this installs much lower than the instructions show, several things are far more in the way that the instructions make it seem Also, the installation is into weak sheetmetal, after your torque this to 75 ft lbs, you will see the steel bending and the bolts are no longer flat against the mounts. Vevor level junk for way to much money for what it is.

Jaime was very helpful in getting the right baseplate for my Jeep Cherokee and in retuning the wrong item which I ordered myself.
The baseplate installed easily and will be used for the first time next week. Also, the curt base plate did not require any trimming whatsoever of the plastics on the front of the car.
Thanks Jaime

This is not the first time I have purchased from ETrailer, but by far the best experience yet. I was treading in uncharted waters and decided to call, i happened to get Paula S. And she was able to educate me on the subject at hand. She also made sure I was ordering all the right parts for the task at hand. I received the two boxes of parts and assembled everything on the vehicle and noticed i was missing something so I called back and talked to Ashley. She assured me that Paula did order the missing part and that it would be here the next day. (Delayed due to holiday) You can sure tell both ladies love their jobs and liked taking care of us customers. I will always try to deal with them when I need something towing related.

Hey Richard! Paula an Ashley are always on the ball so I'm glad that they got to help you out. I see you pretty much got a full flat tow set up, have you started making any plans yet of where to venture off to yet?

Great Base plate kit! Very easy to follow instructions even with my aftermarket bumper with winch. It fit perfect. The only issue I have is where the safety cables attach to the base plate….the cable connectors are too big to fit through the holes because the Jeep’s frame blocks part of the hole. See photo with red circle. I will have to get a smaller connector.

Etrailer is with out a doubt the best supplier in the market today. they are on time every time and there support is excellent.

Fit like it was made for it. :) Only issue was the fishing wires for the bolts in the frame. They would not fit through the holes in the locking plates so I couldn't use them. I used a magnet stick instead and it worked well. I did not put on the safety cables around the frame. I figure since this thing bolts to the steering box, if it comes off so does the steering box and then I have much bigger issues that these cables are not going to help.

Everything fit like it was supposed to. Not to difficult to install. A couple hours at most. Seems to be a quality product. Thanks
