Hey Don, welcome back. Your etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar item # e94ZR will need the etrailer Replacement Tow Bar Adapter Kit for Blue Ox Base Plates item # e98978 to work with the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BLU68CR.
The etrailer Replacement Tow Bar Adapter Kit item # e98978 is going to simply bolt into the end of your tow bar arms where the current Demco compatible connectors are.
Looks like you've got everything you need to flat tow your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. What kind of motorhome do you have?
