Availability of Blue Ox Base Plate Kit for 2021 Ram 1500 TRX
Question:
i am looking for the baseplate for a 2021 TRX and I thought it was BX2419 which i do not see on your site. I will also need the adapters for a blackhawk 2 all terrain SER# 019455 which i think is RM031-5. On top of that i will need the wiring harness also to use my stock lights.

The Blue Ox # BLU75QR that we offer is the exact same as the Blue Ox BX2419 that you are looking for so this would work well for you as it is a confirmed fit for the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX. The adapter you are looking for to go from a Blackhawk 2 # RM-422 to this base plate is the part # RM-031-5 as well.
For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.
And finally, most states now require supplemental braking in the vehicle being flat towed. The easiest system to set up and use is the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR, that applies the vehicle brakes in proportion to how much the tow vehicle is braking. This is the safest way to stop and it reduces wear and tear on both vehicles.
