Adapter for Blue Ox Tow Bar to Work With Roadmaster MX Direct Connect Base Plate
Question:
Does the Roadmaster 1437-3 base plate fit the triple connect on the alpha 2 tow bar?
asked by: Harold B
Helpful Expert Reply:
It can indeed, but you'd first need to swap out the triple lug ends on your # BX7380 Blue Ox Alpha tow bar with the # BX88185 adapter. Once the adapter is installed, the tow bar will work perfectly with the Roadmaster # 1437-3 base plate. I've linked you to a video showing how to install the adapter on the ends of your tow bar.
You'll also need a wiring harness, a supplemental braking system and a few other items to complete your towing system. I'll link you to an article that runs through the different options, and if you have further questions or would like some recommendations, just let me know and I'd be happy to help.
