Which Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Fits 2024 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon

Question

Question:

I recently purchased a 2024 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon to flat tow behind my RV. I already have the Blue Ox tow bar BX7365 and Patriot 3 braking mechanism. What baseplate would I need for my jeep? Videos Ive seen online for attaching blue ox baseplates on the jeep gladiator do not show the same equipment that is on my Rubicon. Ive attached pictures to help clarify. Appreciate your help.

Hey Gathen, since your 2024 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon has the plastic from bumper the correct Blue Ox base plate kit you'd need to use with your Blue Ox tow bar is the part # BLU53FR.

Hi Jameson What had me confused was the metal skid plate (belly pan) that protects the electric sway bar disconnect on the Rubicon. I wanted to make sure that the metal skid plate (belly pan) could be remounted after installing the baseplate. Based on the instructions its seems doable after some trimming to the metal skid plate. Appreciate your help. Gathen

Hey Joe! I reached out to GE and they said the #GE25ZR spikes to 20+ amps for a split second on startup. Breakers are designed to allow very short-duration inrush spikes. A split-second surge over 20A is completely normal and won't be a problem.…

Hey Paul! Wiring like the Curt #C96JR is plug and play which makes for a pretty simple installation. However, it isn't the most reliable, and you won't be able to add a charge line without swapping out the connector on the end. When…

Hey Brent, welcome back! I did some digging and the High Tide 2025 Jeep Gladiator is a Florida exclusive version that is very similar to the Sport model so for a Demco base plate kit you'd need the part #DM9519336. Then for a lighting kit we have…

Hey John! The MORryde UO138-033 is the same as the 10-36 grease seal. The #RG06-070 you were looking at is the correct replacement for your 2024 Riverstone 421FK. How are you liking that suspension system?
