Replacement Arms for Blue Ox Baseplates on a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk
Question:
Hello. I just purchased a 2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk that already has base plates installed. I have attached two pictures. I believe the base plates to be Blue Ox, but I’m not sure. It did not come with the removable arms drawbars? I still have the detachable arms from my old 2006 Jeep Liberty Blue Ox base plates, but they do not lock into the base plates of the 2020 Cherokee seems they are not long enough too short when ed. Any idea what removable arms I need to purchase for the 2022 Cherokee base plates? Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the pictures and congrats on your new Jeep! Those are definitely the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BX1143. You can tell by the horizontal safety chain loops. The Roadmaster item # RM-521451-5 has vertical ones. You will need the Replacement Attachment Tab Assembly for Blue Ox Baseplates item # BLU37XR.
I also recommend using the Replacement Cap for Blue Ox Base Plate Kits item # BLU96XR when you're not flat towing your Jeep. It'll help with moisture getting in there and causing that rust build up you're starting to get.
