Questions & Answers

The car inserts are included with the product?

To make the attachment, you will need several components. Here are some of the factors The car's base plate, light cable, and chain (coils) are all reinforced with chain. It is recommended that the inserts for the car be included in the tow bar kit. However, you should double-check all the parts beforehand. If the inserts were included with the baseplate of the car, it is likely they came with the inserts I see how it works now. Check to make sure it is all compatible with your RV and car.

What kind of car will this work in? A tow bar's been damaged on a 2005 Honda pilot and needs to be replaced as soon as possible. It is a pleasure to work with ?

If it's okay for you to tow your Honda pilot with the transfer case in neutral, and all four tires on the ground, then you can. Not all cars are able to tow this way. At the very least, it must be a 4x4 vehicle.

Could you please let me know if a 21/2" shank is available?

There is a Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar that will fit 2 1/2 inch hitches. I'm looking for the Blue Ox model number

Apart from the color and price, how do the Aventa lx 10k and the BX7420 10 differ from each other?

Tow bars based on the Aventa LX series have been discontinued by the company and replaced by BX7420 tow bars.

Selected User Reviews For Blue Ox BX7420 Class IV Avail 10,000 lb. Capacity Tow Bar with Safety Cable, Brown

Despite its solid construction, this tow bar does have some issues
3/5

For 20 years, I have been dealing with Blue Ox and trust them with our vehicle repairs. There is a small problem, however, built into this unit that, while minor, shouldn't have been left up to me to fix. The rubber boot that covers the sliding tube and keeps dirt out is not sized properly. Due to the fitting has an orientation where it gets smaller on the far end, one side should be much smaller than the other. This causes the cover to fall off. When it was delivered, the zip ties holding it on were loose on both ends. It was very difficult to use without both ends of the zip ties slipping off. As you can see in picture one, the right one is being tied on with a zip tie. There should be two different sizes of ends. You can see how much it is oversize. A second fact is that it's a new one. Using a cheaper method for folding up the tow system when not in use does not work if there is nothing to prevent it from being folded up and down straight. As we cannot store the old bike carrier as we could with the old one, we have a new bike carrier about a foot above the tow system. At the price they charge, there is no way in hell that we should have to buy the zip tie restraints that must be purchased to fit the poorly sized covers or have to bungee the hitch into place because the new storage method will not work.

Whenever you want to disconnect, it is easy to do so
5/5

Tow bars like this are THE tow bars. The vehicle has been in my possession for over two years, and I've There was some tightness when it was new, but no oil or grease should be applied. When attachment is made, it will loosen up and glide smoothly after a few weeks. A wonderful feature of this bar is the pressure release mechanism. The tension is easily relieved to let disconnect occur even in the oddest of As an example The space required to turn into an incline driveway proved to be too small for me to turn into it. My embarrassed ars would need to be disconnected before I went back out on the street to try it again! It isn't a problem with this bar, but I've helped others with competing products, and it can be a real pain. The interface is simple and easy This is the strongest you can get. It's impossible to have more confidence in this product than I do.

Definitely a great company to work for
5/5

This is a great product, and this company takes care of its clients after they purchase it. It is a great little book that I bought a few years ago and have enjoyed it ever since. I got it outside for the summer and noticed the cover had partially melted, bonding to the rubber surrounding The rubber covers were left with holes after the cover was removed. I CAN TELL YOU NOT TO There were no questions asked by the company in replacing the parts. Blue Ox is a company you can trust.

We provide you with a heavy-duty tow bar of superior quality
5/5

There was an earlier version of this. We provide you with a heavy-duty tow bar of superior quality. A previous unit with too many miles had developed slop and needed to be replaced. With locks set back to back after a tight u-turn, the Toad would waver back and forth Please turn around. After you came to a complete stop, you had to keep going to get the ocilating to stop. The problem was solved by this new, strong, tight bar.

Tow bars like this are my favorite
5/5

Tow bars like this are my favorite. There's a lot of hassle with this A removable hitch is free for attaching and detaching from a tow So far I have only used it twice, but from what I have observed from my two short sessions, the design (I'm an engineer and pretty critical in this type of thing), and all the responses I have heard on RV forums, I believe this is the best choice.

The hitch receiver on the motorhome was easy to attach to this product
5/5

This wall-mounting system attaches and detaches very easily to the corresponding base placed on our towing If not in use, the table can be neatly and easily folded up and over. A cover was also part of the accessory kit so we could keep it clean when it was not being used. The Blue Ox brand of products so far have done a good job of towing.

Tow bar makes camping so much fun for this female camper! It is my first time towing a vehicle behind my RV, and this accessory is absolutely necessary
5/5

This hook and unhook system is very easy to use. I was told by the company that installed everything on my TOAD that they will only put in the Blue Ox tow system. It's highly recommended that you purchase the accessory kit, since it contains all the locks, wiring, and everything else you need to setup the.
