Can Blue Ox Apollo Tow Bar Be Used in Place of Blue Ox Avail to Flat Tow Wrangler
Published 11/11/2026
Question:
I already have a base plate for a Blue Ox tow hitch Avail on my Jeep Wrangler. I need to replace my Avail. Can I get a Apollo BX7475 and use the same base plate I already have installed. The reason I may change out my Jeep for a Truck later on.

Hey Scott, welcome back! Yes the Blue Ox Apollo part # BLU28QV that you referenced will work great to replace your Avail. This will give you a much higher capacity tow bar like it sounds like you need for a potential heavier truck down the line and it will work great with your Jeep in the meantime. How did you like the Avail?
