Question:
I have Blue Ox base plates and want a tow bar that stays on the motorhome. Will the Ultra-Fab Blue Ox tow bars work for that?

Hi Karen! Yes, the Ultra-Fab tow bars for Blue Ox base plates are motorhome-mounted tow bars, so they slide into the 2" receiver on the RV and store at the back of the motorhome when you’re not towing.
For Blue Ox base plates, you’ll be looking at the 8,000 lb Ultra-Fab # UF55XR or the 12,000 lb Ultra-Fab # UF95XR. Both are all-terrain, non-binding tow bars with self-locking telescoping arms and included safety cables. The big difference is capacity: # UF55XR is the better fit for many lighter dinghy vehicles, while # UF95XR gives you more room for heavier trucks and SUVs.
I’d still make sure the weight of your towed vehicle, loaded the way you travel, stays under the tow bar’s rating and your motorhome’s hitch rating. If you need any other flat tow components, let me know with your vehicle info and I’ll help you out with the rest!
