Blue Ox Base Plate Installation - 2009 Ford Escape

Hi, there Escape owners. Today, in your 2009 Ford Escape, we're going to be taking a look at, and showing you how to install, the Blue Ox Base Plate.There's five main components you'll need when flat towing your Escape behind your motor home. You'll need your tow bar, which is the connection between your motor home and your vehicle. You'll need your base plate, which provides the connection point for your tow bar to attach to your vehicle.You'll need your diode wiring, which takes all the lighting signals from your motor home, and transfers them back to the lights at the back of your vehicles, so people behind you know your intentions, when going down the road. And you'll need your supplemental braking system, which will apply the brakes in your vehicle, when you hit the brakes in your motor home.The last thing you'll need is just some safety cables, which acts as a supplemental connection, in addition to your tow bar. Now I do want to make you aware that you should verify in your vehicle's owner's manual and check with your dealer before flat towing your escape, because there are going to be some restrictions, particularly with speed, when flat towing your Escape as is.This is what our base plate looks like when it's installed. more
