Blue Ox is known internationally for recreational and commercial towing products, manufacturing in Pender, Nebraska since 1925. The line covers tow bars and vehicle-specific baseplates for flat towing behind a motorhome, sway control and weight distributing hitches, supplemental braking accessories and towing wiring, backed by patented designs and long-standing customer service.
Blue Ox has manufactured since 1925 and is recognised internationally for towing products and customer service. The company operates from Pender, Nebraska, where it grew out of Automatic Manufacturing Co., a business that started with cattle oilers and developed into agricultural equipment, tractor accessories and trailer towing hardware. That agricultural engineering heritage still shows in how the towing products are built, and the company holds patents across weight distribution, fifth wheel and tow bar designs.
Flat towing is the discipline Blue Ox is best known for. Towing a car with all four wheels on the ground behind a motorhome demands a system that stays rigid under braking, articulates properly over uneven ground, and connects to the towed vehicle at points strong enough to take the load. Blue Ox tow bars handle the first two, with self-aligning arms that latch under tension and release without a struggle when the load is off them. Vehicle-specific baseplates handle the third, engineered per make and model to tie into structural mounting points behind the fascia.
The wider flat towing range covers supplemental braking systems, safety cables and the accessories that make a complete legal setup, along with baseplate wiring and dinghy towing harnesses that pass lighting signals to the towed vehicle without back-feeding its electrical system.
For conventional trailer towing, Blue Ox weight distributing hitches with integrated sway control transfer tongue load onto the tow vehicle's front axle and resist the yaw that crosswinds and passing trucks induce.
The company describes its foundation as customer service, designing around what owners actually ask for, and it runs an RV park adjacent to the factory where customers can stay. Sister operations at the same Nebraska site include Automatic grain roller mills and MAD-RAMPS pivoting ramp systems.

The BlueOx EZ Light Wiring Harness Kit For Select CRV BX88281 (Part #FDRWBX88281) fits the following vehicles: 2007-2011 Honda CR-V. Always verify your specific year, make, and model before ordering.
The BlueOx EZ Light Wiring Harness Kit For Select CRV BX88281 (Part #FDRWBX88281) Refer to the included instructions for installation details. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
The BX88281 is a trailer light wiring harness made by Blue Ox that connects a vehicle's taillight system to a 4-Flat trailer connector. It includes T-Connectors for the driver and passenger side taillights, a black control module, power feed wiring with fuse assembly, a grounding wire with ring terminal, and a 4-Flat dust cover.
The manual does not specify which vehicle makes, models or years are compatible with the BX88281. Contact Blue Ox customer service at (402) 385-3051 or visit www.blueox.com to confirm fitment for your vehicle.
The BX88281 is designed for vehicles with a rear hatch door and trunk. The installation requires access to the vehicle's taillight wiring harness in the trunk area and a suitable grounding point on the vehicle frame. Vehicles without a trunk would not be compatible.
Required tools include: a wrench or socket (to remove the battery nut), a drill with a 3/32" bit (for the grounding point), and a screwdriver or similar tool (to remove cargo trays and panels). A small amount of dielectric grease is also needed to prevent corrosion on the 4-Flat terminals.
The BX88281 includes: two T-Connectors (one with yellow wire for driver's side, one with green wire for passenger's side), a black control module, a red power feed wire with fuse assembly, a white grounding wire with ring terminal, a 4-Flat connector, cable-ties, a self-tapping screw for grounding, and a 4-Flat dust cover.
The manual does not explicitly state whether battery disconnection is required. However, because the installation involves working with the vehicle's electrical system and connecting to the battery terminal, it is recommended to consult your vehicle's owner's manual or contact Blue Ox customer service at (402) 385-3051 for guidance on this safety step.
Open the rear hatch door and remove: cargo trays, D-ring tie downs, and the threshold panel. Partially remove the corner felt trunk liner on both sides to expose the vehicle's taillight wiring harness.
Driver's side: disconnect the vehicle's wiring harness with the yellow wire from the taillight socket. Plug the EZ Light T-Connector end with the yellow wire in-between the mating plugs on the driver's side taillight socket and vehicle's wiring harness. Passenger's side: carefully disconnect the wiring harness connector from the taillight assembly without damaging the connector locking tabs. Route the T-Connector end with the green wire behind the felt liner and along the threshold, then attach it to the matching taillight assembly connector carefully to avoid damaging the locking tabs.
Secure the EZ Light black control module in an out-of-the-way place in the trunk using the provided cable-ties to prevent damage or rattling.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole in the vehicle frame to secure the white grounding wire's ring terminal using the provided self-tapping screw. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle, and do not drill into any exposed surfaces.
Drill a 3/32" hole in a suitable grounding point on the vehicle's frame. Clean dirt, paint and rust proofing from the area before drilling. Verify what is behind any surface prior to drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle.
1. Attach the red power feed wire to the EZ Light black control module blue butt splice. 2. Cut the red power feed wire to a convenient length and attach it to the power feed wire fuse assembly blue butt splice. 3. Using a wrench or socket, remove the battery nut and attach the ring terminal from the red power feed wire fuse assembly to the battery stud after routing it along the threshold.
Yellow wire: driver's side taillight T-Connector. Green wire: passenger's side taillight T-Connector. Red wire: power feed from battery to control module and fuse assembly. White wire: grounding wire with ring terminal that connects to the vehicle frame.
Route the 4-Flat connector to near the center of the trunk opening. Position it on the flat surface to the right or left of the trunk latching mechanism so that it will hang out undamaged from under the trunk lid when closed for towing. Stow the 4-Flat connector in the rear cargo area when not in use.
Yes. Apply a small amount of dielectric grease to the 4-Flat terminals to prevent corrosion.
Maximum Stop/Turn Light: 1 amp per side (3 amps total). Maximum Tail Light: 6 amps. Overloading the circuit can cause fires. Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating or these limits.
Reinstall the side panels, carpeting, threshold and any other items removed during installation. Avoid any areas that could cut or pinch the wire.
Connect the 4-Flat connector to the RV electrical system and test all functions with the engine running to ensure proper operation.
Yes. Attach the 4-Flat dust cover (provided) to the 4-Flat connector to protect it when not in use.
The manual does not list specific vehicle compatibility. Contact Blue Ox at (402) 385-3051 or visit www.blueox.com to confirm fitment. The harness requires a trunk with accessible taillight wiring and a suitable frame grounding point.
You will need a wrench or socket, a drill with a 3/32" bit, a screwdriver, and dielectric grease. All other components are included.
Connect the 4-Flat connector to the RV electrical system and test all functions with the engine running.
