The final debate is over which baseplate for a Wrangler. BlueOx is the obvious choice, but on a Wrangler it mounts very low (almost 3 inches lower than on a Liberty), which then requires I use a 6-inch dropbar (ugh, I already use a 4-inch), and potentially exposes the baseplate to ground impact when off-roading. Demco seems to mount almost 3 inches higher, but the mounting seems far less robust (fewer bolts, etc). I don't think Roadmaster baseplate is worth considering since I already have BlueOx towbar.
I bought and installed a
Currie Enterprises Tow Bar mounting plate for Jeep Wrangler 07 and up which replaces the plastic cover directly under the bumper and looks very clean. The install took just over an hour with a buddy's help.
