Question:
I am thinking of buying a Jeep JK that has a flat tow baseplate installed. The gentleman selling is not the original owner and can not give me any information. Is there some way I can send a picture so that you may help me Identify it. I have access to a Blue Ox tow bar and would like to find arms to convert to Blue Ox. Thank you.

Hey Tony. You can send any pictures you have directly to the email address you receive this response from and I'll be happy to take a look at them.
One of the Blue Ox base plate kits that fits a 2011 Jeep Wrangler is item # BX1126.
There's quite a few options depending on what bumper or trim that Jeep has. You'll want to look for part numbers on stickers or stamped into them. The bumper on that Jeep is really going to help determine what base plate is on it.
Has the guy selling it been flat towing it? If so find out what tow bar he has. You can add this information and any other questions you have where it says Reply to Jerred H and I'll be happy to answer them.
