Expert Reply:
Generally it is best to use base plates and a tow bar from the same manufacturer. This avoids the expense and complication of adapters. Since you have a Blue Ox Alpha towbar # BX7380 I suggest base plate kit # BX1126.
Safe and legal flat towing requires a number of components in addition to the base plates and tow bar. The linked article covers each of these - safety cables, a lighting kit and a supplementary braking system - in complete detail and includes links to each product category to help you review your options.
