Baseplate Selector

Blue Ox Baseplates are the #1 choice for America’s towing needs. Our baseplates are custom made to best fit each individual towing situation without requiring drastic alterations to the vehicle. These durable, steel constructed baseplates are easily integrated into the original frame and bumper.

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.

Blue Ox Baseplates are thoughtfully crafted, and select models come with removable tabs, making the look of your vehicle more aesthetically pleasing, even with the baseplate installed. There are no large brackets protruding or crossbar support beams.

The tabs can simply be removed when not towing, making the baseplate practically invisible to the untrained eye. In addition to aesthetics, our baseplates have set new industry standards with our locking linchpin. Other manufacturers often use cotter pins which are more likely to come loose creating the potential for damage to the vehicle or cause an accident.

Blue Ox towing baseplates come with a 3-year warranty and will fit Blue Ox Acclaim, Adventurer, Aladdin, Allure, Alpha 2, Ambassador, Avail, Aventa, and Ascent tow bars. They may also be used with the Roadmaster tow bars using the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter (sold separately).

Our baseplates can be used on a variety of vehicles including; Hummer, Landrover, Jeep, Subaru, Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Lincoln, Mercury, Chrysler, Dodge, Volkswagen, Volvo, Toyota, Acura, Lexus, Infiniti, BMW, Mini Cooper, Mercedes, Saturn, Pontiac, Plymouth, Oldsmobile, Buick, Kia, Hyundai, Fiat, Mazda, Honda, Isuzu, Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Yugo, Smart Car, and we are always expanding our inventory.
