Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Installation - 2017 Ford Edge- Video
Speaker 1: Today on this 2017 Ford Edge, we'll be having a look at and showing you how to install the Blue Ox baseplate kit with removable arms, part number BX2667.Here's what your baseplate looks like installed. As you can see, it's a nice concealed look. It goes right in the corner of our fascia here, up out of the way, and doesn't affect our grill opening really here at all; so it gives us a really clean look. We have a easy attachment point for the safety cables that'll go between our Edge and our motor home. Using our safety cable here, you can see we have plenty of clearance, and it won't contact any of our painted surfaces at all.We have these prongs in the front of our baseplate, which serve as an attachment point for any of our electrical needs for doing a flat tow setup, for our towed vehicle lighting systems. We also have a mounting location to put your breakaway switch for your supplemental braking system.Now, one thing that I really like about this baseplate compared to others on the market is that with removable arms having a small diameter, it really gives us a clean look. more
