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 BX88282 is a wiring harness kit that integrates your vehicle's tail light signals with an RV electrical system. It uses a converter box mounted behind the driver-side tail light to process the vehicle's tail light signals and outputs them through a 4-way flat connector at the front of the vehicle for connection to an RV or trailer.
The manual does not specify which vehicle makes, models, or years are compatible with the BX88282. Contact Blue Ox customer service at (402) 385-3051 or visit www.blueox.com to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle before purchasing.
You will need a drill with a 3/32" bit to create the grounding hole. A screwdriver is required to secure the grounding wire. Zip ties are used throughout the installation to secure wiring. The manual does not specify whether additional tools such as a socket set, wire strippers, or crimpers are needed.
The kit includes a converter box, a wiring harness with yellow and green wire ends, a white grounding wire with ring terminal, double-stick tape for mounting the converter box, a screw for securing the grounding wire, and zip ties. The manual does not confirm whether a 4-way flat bracket is included; you may need to purchase one separately or cut and splice the harness into your preferred trailer plug socket.
Remove the fasteners holding the tail light housings in place on both the driver and passenger side. Carefully pull the housings away from the vehicle, taking care not to break the alignment tabs or housing. The manual does not specify the number or type of fasteners, as this varies by vehicle.
Mount the converter box on the driver side behind the tail light. Clean the mounting area first, then use the double-stick tape provided to secure the box. The manual does not specify an alternative mounting location.
Disconnect the original wiring harness from both tail lights. Plug the wiring kit end with the yellow wire into the mating plugs on the driver-side tail light connector and the vehicle wiring harness connector. Route the wiring kit end with the green wire to the passenger side and plug it into the mating plugs on the passenger-side tail light connector and the vehicle wiring harness connector.
Secure all loose wiring to the vehicle with zip ties as you work. Route the 4-way flat harness towards the front of the vehicle, securing it with zip ties. When reinstalling the tail light housings, position the wire harness between the housing and the vehicle body. Secure the remainder of the wiring harness in a secure area with additional zip ties to prevent damage and movement.
You can either install the 4-way flat harness into a 4-way flat bracket, or cut off the harness plug and splice the wires into your preferred style of trailer plug socket. Mount the bracket or socket in a convenient location at the front of the vehicle. The manual does not specify which option is recommended or whether the bracket is included.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white grounding wire. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces, the vehicle floor, or the bed. Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, clean it thoroughly of dirt, paint, and rust-proofing material, then drill the hole and secure the white wire with its ring terminal using the screw provided.
Yes. You can cut off the harness plug and splice the wires into your preferred style of trailer plug socket. The manual does not provide splicing instructions, wire colours, or gauge specifications, so consult a qualified electrician or the socket manufacturer's instructions if you choose this option.
The manual does not provide a torque specification for the grounding screw. Tighten it securely by hand to ensure the ring terminal does not move, but do not over-tighten. Contact Blue Ox at (402) 385-3051 if you need a specific torque value.
The grounding hole must be 3/32" in diameter. Drill this hole in a suitable grounding point near the front connector, after cleaning the area of dirt, paint, and rust-proofing material.
The yellow wire end connects to the driver-side tail light. The green wire end connects to the passenger-side tail light. The white wire is the ground wire and must be secured to a suitable grounding point near the front connector using the ring terminal and screw provided. The manual does not specify the function of other wires or colours if the harness is spliced.
Yes. Apply a small amount of dielectric grease to the 4-way flat terminals to prevent corrosion. This should be done before connecting to the RV electrical system.
After installation, connect the harness to the RV electrical system and test all functions with the engine running to ensure proper operation. The manual does not specify which functions to test or what proper operation looks like.
Be careful not to break the alignment tabs or housing when pulling the tail light housings away from the vehicle. These tabs are critical for proper alignment when reinstalling the housings.
Do not drill into any exposed surfaces, the vehicle floor, or the bed. Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector and clean it thoroughly before drilling. The manual does not define what constitutes a 'suitable' grounding point.
