Hello John! Yes, there sure is! To make your etrailer SD tow bar compatible with a Blue Ox base plate you will need the following:

- etrailer Replacement Tow Bar Adapter Kit for Blue Ox and Curt Base Plates # e98978

This will replace the clevis end on your tow bar and allow it to work seamlessly with the Blue Ox base plate.

Are you needing the rest of the parts for your flat tow setup? Let me know.

Hey John, how did things go after adding the adapter kit to your etrailer SD tow bar and Blue Ox base plate? Your update could make it easier for the next person working with the same setup.
