Expert Reply:

If you have the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # e98950 and want to couple it with a Blue Ox Tow Bar you do NOT need an adapter. It is already set up to couple with a Blue Ox tow bar.

Looking at The Adapter for Demco Kwik-Tow and Blue Ox Adventurer Tow Bars to etrailer Invisible Base Plates
Item # e98987 you will notice they have the same mating surface as the Etrailer Invisible Base Plates, so the base plates can be used with either demco or blue ox tow bars without the need for this adapter.
