Question:
I recently purchased a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Sahara. It came with a Roadmaster Base Plate #521448-5 missing the removable arms. I have a Blue Ox Ascent Tow Bar #BX4370 that I have been using with a Blue Ox Base Plate #BX1648 on my 2002 Oldsmobile Alero. What parts do I need to connect my Blue Ox Tow Bar to the Roadmaster Base Plate? Would I be better off just buying a new Blue Ox Base Plate for the Jeep?

Expert Reply:
To get replacement arms for a Roadmaster base plate kit you need the part # RM-ARMS and then to use it with a Blue Ox Ascent Tow Bar # BX4370 you'd need to use the adapter # BX88185 and you'd be set. Now the replacement arms for the Roadmaster base plates take some time as they are a custom order type deal. So if you are looking for a quick solution I would recommend going with a Blue Ox base plate kit like you mentioned # BX1126.
