Replacement Hardware for Blue Ox Base Plate on 2017 Buick Enclave

Question:

I will be transferring a base plate from my 2011 Buick Enclave sold to a recently purchased 2017 Buick Enclave. The base plate Im using is BX1708. I would like to get new mounting hardware bolts, nuts, etc. and a new wiring kit. What do you recommend for both? Thanks

The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1708 is confirmed to fit your 2017 Buick Enclave. You will need 4 of the Replacement Weldment - 1/2" -13 Nut Wire # 61-4029 as well as the bag of bolts # BLU39FR.

Sorry about that. For your wiring on the 2017 Enclave, I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 which will use your factory wiring and yet protect the vehicle electronics. You will also need the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass Switch for Towed Vehicles - 50-Amp FMX Fuse # RM-76517 and the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass Switch for Towed Vehicles - (2) 20-Amp ATC/ATO Fuses # RM76514 to make switching into flat tow mode easy. I've attached a couple videos of these installations on similar vehicles to assist.
