Hi, I installed a blue ox base plate and later got a great deal on an arb bumper, it looks like they are incompatible, however I believe I've seen a photo of an arb bumper with blue ox mount showing through, is it possible? |

I dont know but I would be surprised if they are compatible with the ARB without modification. There are several members with ARB bumpers here off hand Mass Hole has an ARB bumper so you might pm to see what he might know . If you dont get an answer soon. The other possibility would be to post on the gasser section also since I think they may have more experience by sheer numbers. Tom Mudd may have some insight. Anything is likely possible with enough fabrication . Likely welding some attachments on the ARB could serve a similar purpose for a tow bar. |

I did have an ARB, although I parted my Jeep so I don't have a way to look. What do you mean by a Blue OX baseplate? |

OK, now I see what you mean. No I don't think you could have both mounted. The ARB uses the same "frame rails" to mount the mounting plate. I believe the ARB tow hooks hang down from that plate and they would interfere with the Blue Ox. |
