Question:
Do you sell an adapter to use a Reese Universa tow bar with Off Road D-ring loops or Maximus 3 loops.? Do you sell the tie rod Required with Maximus 3 loops?

Hey Nelson,
We don't have any adapters for that tow bar but according to my research your Maximus 3 loops will work with a 7/8" Pin for a tow bar, or a tow bar compatible with 3/4" D-Rings.
For that, I recommend going with the Blue Ox Acclaim Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX4330 and Blue Ox Off-Road Bumper Adapters # BX88357. This still fits but it isn't as pricey as the standard hitch-mounted tow bars that we also offer, which I think is what you were shooting for.
Do you have all of the parts you need to flat tow your 2022 Gladiator?
