Will Demco Air Force One Fit 2025 Ford Ranger Raptor  

Updated 09/14/2025 | Published 08/19/2025

Question:

I am considering purchasing a 2025 Ford Ranger Raptor to tow behind my Tiffin Phaeton 40IH motor home. I do not find any videos or information on your website about installation of the BX2915 which is the recommended base plate. Also, will the Airforce one braking system work on the Raptor

Hey Donovan! The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU77ER is the right base plate for the 2025 Ford Ranger Raptor. This will work with any Blue Ox tow bar like the Avail # BX7420. We haven't had a Ford Ranger Raptor come in for installation of this base plate but once we do we can add an installation video. The written installation instructions are linked below so you can check those out for now.

Flat tow brake systems are basically universal. You can use the Demco Air Force One # SM99243 or # DM26VR (with wireless monitoring) on the 2025 Ranger Raptor. If your Tiffin Phaeton 40IH is a 2020 or newer model you will need the Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for 2020 and Newer Tiffin Chassis RVs w/Factory Air Brakes # DM55MV instead.

Do you need help with the rest of your setup? If you end up getting the truck let me know and we can get you all of the wiring you need as well.

Hey Donovan, did you get a chance to look at the installation instructions for the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit? I'm curious if you found them helpful, as it could guide others considering a similar setup.

for the BLU77ER base plate to fit a 2025 Ford Ranger.The Blue Ox baseplate does fit the 2025 Ford Ranger Raptor and is moderately involved install. It does involve completely removing the front facia and bumper. I tackled the install by myself in the driveway, but a helper would mke the job much easier as rhe bumper is bulky and needs to have wiring removed before setting it aside. Total install took me about 4 hours, but I also did the setup foe my Demco Air Force One braking system and wiring for my tail lights. The base plate fit well with the need to drill 2 holes and wallow out 2 existing holes. Well done Blue Ox!
