Hello Roy, thanks for reaching out. Yes, we do have a Blue Ox base plate that will work on your 2021 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon with the factory steel bumper and Warn winch. For that you'll need the following:

- Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BLU53FR

This is made specifically for Rubicon models with the factory steel bumper and will pair right up with your existing Blue Ox tow bar.

Are you needing the rest of the parts for your flat tow setup? Let me know - I'm happy to throw together a parts list!
