Question:
I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Altitude edition with a Blue Ox Ascent tow bar. What base plate would you recommend Blue Ox or Raodmaster? I am leaning towards a Roadmaster 521448-5 for ease of installation. Was told I would have to go with the 521448-4 with crossbar, is this correct?

Expert Reply:
The Blue Ox Ascent Tow Bar part # BX4370 will work on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited using the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-521448-5 but you will need the Blue Ox Tow Bar to Roadmaster EZ5, MS, and MX Base Plates Adapter Brackets part # BX88185. This adapter is very seamless and would be pretty much the same as using a matching tow bar and base plate kit.There would not be any sort of crossbar required for installation.
