Blue Ox BX1638 Tow Bar Base Plate for Chevrolet S-10 Blazer 2WD

The Blue Ox BX1638 is a vehicle-specific tow bar base plate engineered for flat towing the Chevrolet S-10 Blazer (2WD, 1997–2002). Blue Ox baseplates are vehicle-specific brackets that provide attachment points for your Blue Ox tow bar, designed to deliver a solid, durable connection between your dinghy towed vehicle and your towing vehicle.

Baseplates for flat towing are custom-designed for each vehicle, bolting directly into the chassis and engineered to use as many attachment points as possible. Installation requires no welding, and the baseplate sits hidden beneath the vehicle body for a clean appearance.

Key Features:

• Standard Attachment Tabs Included – Comes complete with standard attachment tabs for quick tow bar connection
• Install Rating 2 – Moderate installation difficulty; suitable for experienced DIYers or professional installers
• FedEx Shippable – Compact enough for standard ground shipping
• Sold as a Complete Unit – Everything needed for the base plate assembly is included
• TTX e-Coat finish with a multi-stage immersion process ensures maximum paint adhesion; a high voltage bonds the paint to the parts for high corrosion resistance, followed by a powder coat for UV resistance and aesthetic finish
• Backed by a three-year limited warranty

Blue Ox base plate brackets feature two protruding prongs (lugs) on the ends of their drawbar arms that connect directly to Blue Ox tow bar arms for a secure hookup. Because base plates must provide a solid, durable connection for towing, the reinforced frame brackets must fit the dinghy vehicle perfectly — base plates are always custom fit.
