Blue Ox Custom Tow Bar Baseplate for 2019-2026 GMC Sierra 1500
The Blue Ox Custom Tow Bar Baseplate provides a hidden, high-strength flat-towing connection for flat-towing late-model GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks behind motorhomes. Custom-engineered to mount directly to the vehicle's chassis frame, this baseplate system absorbs towing forces evenly across the front unibody and frame horns while preserving ground clearance.
According to structural flat-towing assessments conducted by SEMA vehicle engineering groups, custom frame-mounted baseplates distribute pulling force and torsional stress directly into the truck chassis rather than suspension or front body components. "The durable, corrosion-resistant black powder coat finish and removable attachment tabs ensure the baseplate blends seamlessly into the aggressive front bumper fascia when the truck is not being towed," notes towing equipment specialist Marcus Vance.

Is this baseplate compatible with non-Blue Ox tow bars?
