Question:

Will the BX288296 adapter work with a Falcon All Terrain Tow bar. I want to connect to a Hansen bumper on my 2013 Jeep Wrangler via the d-rings?

Expert Reply:

The Blue Ox adapter for off-road bumpers # BX88296 will only fit Blue Ox Alpha, Avail, Allure, Acclaim, and Titan tow bars. It will not work with the Roadmaster tow bars like your Falcon All-Terrain model.

You would need to switch to a Blue Ox tow bar. The Alpha, # BX7380, is rated for 6,500 pounds.

The Avail, # BX7420, is rated for 10,000 pounds.
The Allure, # BX7460P, is a pintle mount rated for 10,000 pounds.
The Acclaim, # BX4330, is a coupler style rated for 5,000 pounds.
And the Titan, # BX7520P, is a pintle mount rated for 20,000 pounds.

The Blue Ox adapter would not connect to the D-rings but rather to the mount where the d-rings attach to the bumper. So the d-rings would have to be removed and the opening in the mounts would have to be 7/8 inches in diameter.
