Question:
Looking for assistance / advice for flat tow blue ox baseplate vs Maximus tow loop vs roadmaster direct connect for 2019 Jeep Moab edition with factory front steel bumper. I have the Blue Ox Aventa II tow bar, and have used Blue ox base plates before, but want a cleaner look if possible.

Of the two option I have available the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-521453-5 and the Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit part # DM9519339 I really like the look of the Demco model. While it does add more to the front of the vehicle it does it in a very nice factory look. This has all of the attachment points and will keep you from having a pieced together look.
When not in use the arms are removable for an even cleaner look. To use this with your Aventa II tow bar use the Adapter for Blue Ox Tow Bars to Demco Tabless Base Plates part # DM9523127. This will make connections a breeze.
As for the Maximus products I have no experience with them. We do have Blue Ox adapters for you to use your tow bar with d-rings. I will link them here but I am unsure of the d-ring dimensions you will have so you will have to choose the correct size. They are the Blue Ox Aftermarket Off-Road Bumper Adapter - 7/8" Pin part # BX88357 and the Blue Ox Aftermarket Bumper Adapter - 1" Pin part # BX88358.
