This kit had everything I need to flat tow my 2022 GMC Canyon. However, I did not use the lights, I opted for a light diode kit. Having the various locks keyed the same saves time and less keys to worry about.



by:

Put about 1,500 miles on these towing a 2022 GMC Canyon with no issues. Very easy to hook up the truck.



by:

Great product and easy to follow detailed instructions.



by:

I purchased the accessory kit just to be sure I had everything I needed when installing my tow bar system. once I knew what are the components did, it made perfect sense to have this kit. This is a great kit.



by:

All advertisement parts were included. The one thing I would change is to havecall locks work off the same key. Carrying 3 different keys is unnecessary these days. I have a set of the master lock one key fits all locks in a 3 lock set. Maybe Blueox can work on that one.

Great



by:

We only use Blue Ox tow products at our business. We sell the Patriot braking system to all new flat-tow customers. They are easy to set up and they work great.



by:

Professionally installed. Piece of cake to use. Takes about 2 minutes to hook up mainly because I have to string lights to the back of the car. Installer recommended non-kit lights since there were problems with some makes/models LED bulbs.



by:

The kit provides just what I need to complete the tow package. Using an Avail Tow Bar. I've used it for towing a Lincoln MkT behind a Jayco Greyhawk -- 6 trips totaling 4,200 miles in the first 9 months of 2017. When not towing the cover is great!



by:

worked as advertised, installation is the same labor as other tow bars. The Avail tow bar is sturdy and able to tow my 7K lbs vehicle.

Works good. It was easy to install, however the connectors it came with were extreme hard to crimp down on. Ended up using the all weather connectors recommended in the etrailer installation video.

Great place to deal with.

  • Troubleshooting Running Light Circuit that is Hot all the Time on Flat Towed Vehicle
    It sounds like there is either a short between the 12 volt accessory circuit of your tow bar wiring and the running light circuit or the two circuits are wired backwards. I would use a circuit tester to test the pins of the 7-way on your tow vehicle to make sure only the 1:00 pin has voltage at all times as that should be the 12 volt accessory circuit and if that checks out test the pins of the 6-way on the opposite end of the adapter when it is plugged in. See which pin is hot all the...

  • Installation of Blue Ox 88206 Flat Tow Adaptor Cable with Differing Center Pin Functions
    The center pin of the 7-way is wired for a reverse light circuit. The Blue Ox wiring 7-way to 6-way has to do with 7-way trailer wiring circuits and reduces to the 6-way input wiring for the tow vehicle. The 7-way is labeled as open at the 7-way end center pin and there is not wiring attached to that pin location on the connecting harness which does use the other 6 function which will then match the 6-way input pin locations. The Blue Ox Towing Accessories Kit for Ascent and Avail Tow...

  • Which Pin of Blue Ox 6-Way to 7-Way is for 12 Volt Charge Circuit
    What is confusing and annoying about 6-way trailer wiring plugs is that there is two commonly used wiring diagrams used with only difference being that the brake output and 12 volt charge circuits are swapped. So on the 6-way side of the Blue Ox 7-Wire to 6-Wire Electrical Cord and Outlet # BX88206 the center pin of the 6-way is the 12 volt charge circuit. We have confirmed this with Blue Ox. The question you mentioned has been taken down and was done by someone who no longer works here...

  • Tail Lights Work On 2014 Honda CR-V While Not Connected To Motorhome But Signals Stop After
    It sounds like you are having issues with the tail light circuits on your towed vehicle. If that is the case then I will need to know exactly what components you are using in order to offer specific advice but I can tell you that although the same bulb may be used for normal operation and flat-tow operation, they are not powered by the same source so it could very well be that the turn signals work normally but not when attached to the motorhome. I again will need to know exactly what components...

  • Does the Blue Ox Accessory Kit BX88308 Include a Charge Line?
    Yes, you do. The wiring that comes with the Blue Ox Accessory Kit item # BX88308 only controls your towed vehicle's lights. You will need to add the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit item # RM-156-25.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2018 Chevy Equinox Premium
    The Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX1730 is correct for your 2018 Chevy Equinox and will work great with the tow bar part # BX7420. The lighting kit part # BX88308 would work great as well. A brake light relay is not needed for use with the part # DM26VR either. With all of these parts you'd have a complete flat towing setup.

  • Identifying Base Plate Kit to Flat Tow 2005 Jeep TJ Wrangler
    Thanks for the picture of the front end of your 2005 Jeep Wrangler. Based on that you have the Blue Ox Fixed Arm Kit part # BX1120. For a tow bar the Blue Ox Avail part # BX7420 is a great option as it's easy to use and allows the vehicle to track well behind the RV. For a kit that includes wiring, locks, and a storage bag you'd want the part # BX88308. And finally, most states now require supplemental braking in the vehicle being flat towed. The easiest system to set up and use is the...

  • Troubleshooting No Running Lights On A Flat Towed 2011 GMC Acadia
    Hello Marv! I am happy to try to help you troubleshoot the wiring issues you are having on your 2011 GMC Acadia. This is an interesting issue you have described, and there are a few things you will want to check. First, we want to confirm that we do in fact have a solid running light signal coming from your RV. The running light circuit should be at the "11 o'clock" pin on the RV 7 way. We suggest going in with a wire tester like part # PTW2993 and verifying that there is power to the...

  • Will Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Fit 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit
    Yes, the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1128 will fit your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit. Attached is an installation video of us installing this kit on a High Altitude which has the same front fascia area as a Summit to give you an idea of what it looks like.

  • Will Blue Ox Base Plates 1142 Fit on 2020 Jeep Gladiator with Factory Steel Bumper and Winch
    As long as your 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon has the factory steel bumper, the Blue Ox Base Plates # BLU53FR will fit with your winch installed. I was able to confirm this with my contact over at Blue Ox for you. These base plates are compatible with most Blue Ox tow bars, like the Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 10,000 lbs # BX7420, which comes with safety cables included. If you also still need tow bar wiring, supplemental braking or a high low adapter to complete your setup,...

  • Can 2019 Chevy Sonic RS with Automatic Transmission be Flat Towed Behind RV
    According to my research it looks like your 2019 Chevy Sonic RS with the automatic transmission can be flat towed behind an RV like what you're asking. To do this you need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. I recommend going with a Blue Ox setup and the parts that you'll use are listed below: Base Plate Kit - # BX1703 Avail Tow Bar - # BX7420 Towing Accessories Kit - # BX88308 Stay-IN-Play DUO...

To complete your flat towing setup you'll also need a compatible tow bar, tow bar wiring, safety cables, supplemental braking system and possibly a high/low adapter.

  • Are Blue Ox Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2020 Jeep Wrangler Same as 2019 Wrangler
    Yes, all of the Blue Ox components mentioned in the tow package help article for flat towing the 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited are the same for the 2019 models as well. I attached a link to that article to this page but here's a list of everything as well: # BX1139 # BX7420 # BX88308 # BLU37TR # RM-751490 # RM-9332 # BX8870

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2018 Jeep JL and Ram 1500
    When putting together a flat towing package you'll need parts from the following categories: base plates, tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, supplemental braking and a high low adapter. Your base plates and tow bar will need to be compatible, and since you may want to tow two different vehicles, a portable supplemental braking system would be the best choice. I've linked some articles that specifically talk about flat towing these two vehicles, but will also provide a quick list of...

  • Equipment Needed To Flat Tow 2021 Jeep Wrangler Behind Motorhome With Spartan Safe Haul System
    It looks like you've got a good handle on what you need. The # SM99209 second vehicle Air Force One kit is what you'd need, because the Spartan Safe Haul provides everything necessary on the motorhome end of things but you'll also need the # SM6296 jumper kit to connect the air system on the coach to the Air Force One system on the Jeep. The Blue Ox # BX1139 works great on vehicles with the stock bumper with the plastic bumper cover and the # BX7420 Avail tow bar would be a good choice...
