Hey Mike, thanks for reaching out. I see you already got the # BX7470 tow bar on order, but I wanted to make sure your question was answered.

Yes, the Curt Custom Base Plate Kit # C49JR for the 2019 F-350 is indeed compatible with the Blue Ox Apollo Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX7470. They are directly compatible, so you won't need any additional adapters or anything.

What's the first trip you have planned once you get your F350 set up for towing?

Copy. Well I bought a ton of stuff to setup the truck, but after talking with Lakyesha, one of your reps, she said I would need the blue ox plates. Anyways, thank you for responding. Mike

@MikeG Ok gotcha. A Blue Ox base plate will work too, but so will the curt. The removable arms Curt uses are virtually identical to the Blue Ox, so the Curt is definitely an option if you want to save a bit of $$$. Anyway, glad to help. Let me know if there is anything else you need!
