Our design philosophy has evolved along with the ever-changing designs of

unibody cars. During the design phase, care is taken to build a strong baseplate

while keeping in mind aesthetics, ease of installation and manufacturability of

parts. Once a design has been prototyped, precision instrumentation is used to

collect measurements at predetermined locations as to the ex of the baseplate,

the torsion of the baseplate cross tube and any ex of the vehicle frame itself.

Our philosophy is to let the baseplate torsion, or ex. This torsion, similar to

receiver hitches, allows the baseplate to absorb the forces of towing rather than

rigidly transferring the forces to the frame of the vehicle.

Removable tabs on all

new models simply twist

with attached spring pin

to lock to your baseplate

for towing, or removal for

safe storage. Removable

tabs further enhance the

aesthetics of Blue Ox®

baseplates made for a variety of popular vehicles*, including the most recent

models from Jeep®, Honda®, Chevy®, GMC®, Mazda®, Nissan®, BMW®, Buick®,

Cadillac®, Pontiac®, Subaru® and Toyota®, as well as the Suzuki® Vitara, and the

VW® Golf, Jetta and Beetle.

* For your specific automobile, see the Blue Ox® application guide. All Blue Ox® baseplates come

with a three year warranty. Not all models are equipped with removable tabs. Some older models are

standard tab.
