Hey Kevin, since you have a Blue Ox tow bar the easiest base plate kit solution for your 2022 Jeep Gladiator would be the Blue Ox part # BLU53FR since that wouldn't require any adapters and we know it fits well and is easier to use. Do you have the rest of the flat towing setup figured out light lighting and braking?

Hey Kevin, how did things go with the Blue Ox base plate on your Gladiator? Did it fit up easily with your tow bar and the rest of your flat towing setup? Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same setup.
