Help me identify a tow bar
I just bought a 2003 Tracker and am trying to identify what type of tow bar it had. Here is a picture of the part where the tow bar attaches. Anyone know what type this is?

- That looks to be a Blue Ox Base Plate however judging by the amount of Rust it may have been used in conjunction with a Snow Plow Blade on Salty Winter Roads!
- I'm amazed how rusty it is because the rest of the car does not have a rust issue. Maybe made out of poor quality metal or never painted properly for protection. I think I will remove it and sandblast/paint it.
- Blue Ox. Looks just like the new one I put on my 13 Jeep, less the rust.
You just need the quick connect tabs. ronfisherman wrote:
Blue Ox. You will need the 2 tabs that go in round holes. They can be found on EBAY for a small amount.
yep, looks like mine on my saturn vue. salt the roads much there?
bumpy- Need to clarify. Your picture is showing a baseplate. Tow Bar attaches to it.

Check that ground connection it looks like it is corroded beyond use, specially if it is part of the ground for the lights or brake system on the toad.

Thanks. I didn't see it until I looked at the photo. I'll check it out.- Check that ground connection it looks like it is corroded beyond use, specially if it is part of the ground for the lights or brake system on the toad.
