Question:
I recently bought a 2009 Hyundai Accent 2 door hatchback that was a previous toad. I have everything except the tow bar. I believe this is a Blue Ox setup, but not sure pictures attached. Im just towing it behind my Ford E350 van. Will this tow bar work? I dont need all the bells and whistles, just the basics. Thank you.

Hey Tom,
Based on the picture it looks like you have the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX2323 installed on your 2009 Hyundai Accent so the Blue Ox Adventurer Adjustable Tow Bar # BX7322 would be a compatible fit. If the previous owner didn't do a diode kit or give you the tow lights you can use ones from Optronics # TL21RK to display your traffic signals and stay street legal.
You'll also want to check the weight of the vehicle and your local flat towing laws as some areas require a braking system to be installed. If you do have to install one then I recommend just going with the Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Flat Tow Brake System # HM39494. This system is portable so you can remove it when not in use.
