  • Recommended Baseplate For A 2018 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  • Hi Les, Certain baseplates can be compatible with multiple trim packages or models but it's always a case by case scenario. Some baseplates might have a chunk of metal that interferes with the trim of specific model or that specific model could have different attachment points than standard models. The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1138 you referenced is not a fit for a Trailhawk model but Curt makes a compatible option with part # C46JR. The compatible Blue Ox baseplate (BX1136) for your...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2011 Jeep Liberty

  • Parts Needed For Flat Towing a 2024 Chevrolet Trax
  • So currently(6/11/24), the only custom fit base plate I see available for your 2024 Chevrolet Trax is the Demco # DM59YV. Not sure if this is what you meant you have. If you can verify this and which non-binding tow bar you have I can verify if you will need any type of adapter. As for the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Braking System # DM86VR you will want to make sure you have a Charge Line # RM-156-25 to prevent the battery on your Trax from being drained. You will also need the Wiring # DM9523010-54...

  • Recommended Pars to Flat Tow 2021 Ford Bronco
  • Hey Andrew, I really like the Blue Ox base plate kits like the # BLU97XR that fits your 2021 Ford Bronco. We have found they are the easiest to use overall and just really high quality.

One of the most popular compatible tow bars is the Blue Ox Avail # BX7420 which comes with safety cables. The coiled design helps keep the cables off of the...

  • Do All 2023 Jeep Wrangler Base Plate Kits Come with Plugs for When Pins Are Removed
  • I definitely think that all base plate kits should come with plugs for when the vehicle isn't being flat towed, but this looks to be a hit and miss kind of thing, and the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 you were looking at for your 2023 Jeep Wrangler doesn't come with the plugs. You'll have to get them separately in the Kit # RM-210. We do have our kit, the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98948, that fits your 2023 Wrangler and it comes with plugs but if you...

  • Will NSA ReadyBrake Work With etrailer Tow Bar and Roadmaster Base Plate on 2023 Jeep Wrangler Sport

The etrailer # e74ZR fits the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 and the NSA ReadyBrake is just a hitch insert so it will be compatible with any tow bar. The etrailer tow bar comes with safety cables so the only other thing you will need is wiring and possibly a high-low adapter. You can use the # RM-15267 unless you have the ParkSense feature in which case you would need the # RM63MR instead. For the high-low adapter...

  • Which Base Plate for ReadyBrute Tow Bar With Blue Ox Adapters on 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport
  • So you have a ReadyBrute tow bar and the link you sent is for Blue Ox base plate adapters. These will allow you to use the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BLU53FR on your 2020 Jeep Gladiator.

  • Will Blue Ox Acclaim Tow Bar Fit a 2010 Jeep Wrangler D-Ring Bumper
  • Hey Doland, thanks for reaching out again! The Blue Ox Acclaim Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX4330 will only work with base plates that have the tabs spaced out 23" - 30" apart. Since your D-Ring mounts are closer together than that range, we'll have to get you setup with more of a standard tow bar. For that I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520 and you'll need D-Ring adapters to make this compatible with the D-Rings on your Jeep bumper. For this tow bar you're looking at either...
