Review on Blue Ox BX2673 Removable Attachment by John Larsen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor fit on Lincoln MKZ

Installing baseplates is not as easy as it seems. Most of the installation was as advertised. Unfortunately, the location of the front bolt holes matches the weld on the front uprights. this condition makes it very difficult to drill. You will need to drill at an angle to attach the largest screw to the bracket. I ended up ruining four expensive drill bits. Also, the connector pins that connect to the wire harness assembly are spread apart on the very first wire harness. Seems to be a weak point. Most likely poor metallurgy and low strength.

Pros
  • Most Blue Ox skid plates have removable tabs that leave a clean look when the vehicle is not being towed.
Cons
  • Functionality
