The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1126 is the correct fit for a 2008 Jeep Wrangler with a standard factory bumper. The base plates # BX1134 are also a fit for the ARB Stubby Bar bumper as well as the standard bumper. It is a mounting point difference as well as the brackets are 3-1/2 inches higher on the latter. I've attached the photos of each on a standard bumper that don't make it real easy to distinguish so I've also attached the installation details.
