Yes, the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit part # BX3795 is a fit for a 2021 Toyota Tacoma. I spoke to Blue Ox who informed it was a carry over model. If you don't already have a tow bar, the Blue Ox Alpha 2 Tow Bar part # BX7380 would be a great match. I'd also suggest the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR for a braking system and the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit part # RM-15267 for lights.
