Do the Blue Ox Aftermarket Bumper Adapters Have a Weight Capacity
Question:
I want to flat tow my 2004 GMC serria crew cab 1/2 ton pickup and I was wondering if these were rated heavy enough to hook them to my D rings on my winch bumper

Expert Reply:
The Blue Ox Aftermarket Bumper Adapter part # BX88358 (1" Pin) and part # BX88357 (7/8" Pin) are an excellent option to attach a motorhome mounted Blue Ox Tow Bar such as the Blue Ox Ascent Tow Bar part # BX4370 to an aftermarket bumper with welded-on d-rings. The adapters don't have any sort of weight capacity but they can handle enough for any of the motorhome mounted tow bars they are designed to be used with so there should be no problems here.
