Is Blue Ox Acclaim BX4330 Tow Bar Compatible With a 34 Inch Base Plate Spread
Question:
Ive seen a range up to 30inch tow hook adapter spacing on center. My question is what happens if the width is 34inch on center? Any major concerns?

Expert Reply:
The fact that the base plate tabs are spaced at 34 inches apart won't make too much of a difference other than the fact the wider spread will move the vehicle incrementally closer to the rear of the motorhome, and it will prevent the use of a car-mounted towbar like the Blue Ox # BX4330 Acclaim tow bar .
The Blue Ox Alpha, part # BX7380 would be compatible with a 34 inch base plate spread, and is what I'd recommend.
I've linked to a demonstration video featuring the Blue Ox Alpha tow bar.
