Hey Vicky, thanks for reaching out!
The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit BX1721 uses the Short Tabs # BLU57XR.
Was there anything else you're needing to replace to get your 2018 GMC Canyon back up and ready to flat tow?

Hey Vicky, did the Short Tabs # BLU57XR work out for your 2018 GMC Canyon? I'm curious because it could help others looking to flat tow their vehicles too!
