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 BXW4062 is a replacement spring lock assembly for Blue Ox 2-Point WD Hitch systems. It includes a spring clip (part 222-0189), a round bar locking pin (part 299-0829), and an M4-0.7 x 6MM screw (part 201-1143). This assembly replaces the existing spring lock components on your hitch head.
The BXW4062 is designed for 2-Point WD Hitch systems. The manual does not specify which models or years are compatible. Contact Blue Ox customer service at (402) 385-3051 to confirm compatibility with your specific hitch model before purchasing.
You need only a Phillips screwdriver. The manual also requires Loctite Red, which must be applied to the M4-0.7 x 6MM screw before installation. Check whether Loctite Red is included in your kit; if not, it must be purchased separately.
The kit includes: one M4-0.7 x 6MM screw (part 201-1143), one spring clip (part 222-0189), and one round bar locking pin (part 299-0829). Note that the manual shows these as single quantities, but the assembly must be installed on both sides of the hitch head, so confirm you have received two of each component (except the screw, which may be a single item).
Yes. The first step is to remove the hitch head from the 2-Point WD Hitch system and place it on a solid surface with springs facing upward. The assembly is then installed on both sides of the hitch head before the head is reinstalled.
1. Remove the hitch head from the 2-Point system and place it on a solid surface with springs facing upward. 2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the existing screws at the bottom of the spring clip on both sides. 3. Remove the old spring clip and locking pin from both sides. 4. Place the new spring clip and locking pin onto the hitch head on both sides. 5. Apply Loctite Red to the provided 6MM screw and install it in the bottom hole of the spring clip on both sides. 6. Reinstall the hitch head.
Yes. Step 5 requires you to apply Loctite Red to the provided 6MM screw before installing it in the bottom hole of the spring clip. This must be done on both sides of the hitch head. Loctite Red is a threadlocker that prevents the screw from loosening.
Yes. Steps 2, 3, 4, and 5 all specify that the work must be done on both sides of the hitch head. The spring clip, locking pin, and screw must be installed on the left and right sides.
Blue Ox warrants the BXW4062 when installed according to the provided instructions using only genuine factory replacement parts. The warranty is voided if: (1) the installation instructions are not followed or altered, (2) non-genuine or homemade parts are substituted, (3) replacement bolts of a different grade are used (typically Grade 5 is required), or (4) the hitch is used to tow a non-motorized vehicle.
No. The manual explicitly states: 'Use only genuine factory replacement parts on your baseplate. Do NOT substitute homemade or non-typical parts.' Using non-genuine parts will void the manufacturer's warranty and may compromise the safety of your towing system.
If the screw is lost or damaged, replacement bolts must be the same grade as the original. In most cases, this will be Grade 5. Do not use a lower-grade bolt. Order genuine replacement parts through your nearest Blue Ox Dealer or Distributor to ensure correct specifications.
Replacement parts may be ordered through your nearest Blue Ox Dealer or Distributor. You can also contact Blue Ox customer service at (402) 385-3051 for assistance locating a dealer or ordering parts directly.
