Adapter Needed To Use Blue Ox Tow Bar with Roadmaster EZ Base Plate
Question:
I bought and installed this baseplate and the crossbar. What adapters do I need to use a blue ox tow bar to attach to the quick connect crossbar? Please provide part numbers and price. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
Both Blue Ox and Roadmaster make an adapter that would allow you to use your Blue Ox tow bar with the Roadmaster # 52285-1.
The Blue Ox model is part # BX88178 and the Roadmaster model is RM-032. Either adapter would work just fine for you.
