Expert Reply:
Yes, it will! The Blue Ox Tow Bar Adapter Brackets item # e98986 will allow you to connect your Blue Ox Aventa II BX7335 tow bar to the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e98949 that is confirmed to fit a 2010 Jeep Wrangler. No, you will not need a a clevis.
The etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e98949 fits the 2010 Wranglers with the factory bumper. I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up.
Here are the rest of the parts you will need to flat tow your Jeep:
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - Blue Ox Patriot Portable Flat Tow Brake System item # BLU37TR
Battery Disconnect - Roadmaster Battery Disconnect with Switch for Towed Vehicle w/ Flat Tow Brake System item # RM-766
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
