The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX3613 will work with your Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar # BX7420
If you do not already have the other needed items to flat tow your 2009 Subaru Legacy, I suggest:
For vehicle tow bar wiring, the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 which will make connecting and disconnecting from your RV much easier.
For supplemental braking on your towed vehicle, the Roadmaster BrakeMaster braking system then you can either use part # RM-9060 if you have hydraulic brakes on your RV or part # RM-9160 if your RV has air or air over hydraulic brakes.
To ensure that your towing setup is level I have attached a helpful article on how to choose the correct high/low adapter as well as our selection for you to review.
I have attached some review videos that you can check out as well.
