What is the Difference Between BX88357 and BX88296
Updated 04/14/2020 | Published 04/12/2020 >
Question:
I am looking for a Blux Ox adapter to fit the recovery tabs on my Teraflex Epic front bumper. I noticed that there are two different adapters that look like they would fit the 7/8 pin hole and 1 inch tabl thickness. What is the difference between this two adapters? I noticed that the BX88357 is more expensive than the BX88296, but not sure why. Thanks in advance for your help.

Expert Reply:
You are correct that both the # BX88357 and BX88296 (no longer available) are both the same part with the same size specifications. The # BX88357 is just the newer version of the aftermarket bumper adapter so that's the one I recommend using as long as your TeraFlex Epic front bumper is certified from the manufacturer to be used for flat towing your Jeep.
