Description
If you have a motorhome or RV and are wanting to flat tow your daily driver then the Blue Ox Custom Base Plates are a must have! Blue Ox Base Plates are the #1 choice for America’s towing needs. They offer a custom, vehicle-specific fit that integrates with the vehicle frame, securely bolting into the chassis and providing a solid attachment for dinghy towing. The base plates provide an attachment point for your Blue Ox towing bar, which can be purchased separately. Blue Ox’s unique design allows the towing baseplate to flex and absorb any shock during the drive, rather than transferring the rigid force of a bumpy ride to the frame of the vehicle. The weight is spread evenly to minimize pressure on the suspension.
The Blue Ox Custom Base Plates are constructed from durable steel and are designed to be hidden beneath the vehicle body to help maintain an OE look. Most models come with removable twist-lock tabs, making the look of your vehicle more aesthetically pleasing, even with the baseplate installed. There are no large protruding brackets or crossbar support beams. The twist-lock tabs can simply be removed when not towing, making the baseplate practically invisible to the untrained eye. In addition to aesthetics, the baseplates have set new industry standards with a locking linchpin. Depending on vehicle application, drilling is required to complete installation. The base plates are backed by a 3-year limited warranty and are made right here in the USA!
