<h3>About Blue Ox Towing Products</h3><p>Few names carry as much weight in the towing world as <strong>Blue Ox</strong>. Rooted in a manufacturing heritage that stretches back to 1925 in Pender, Nebraska, Blue Ox has spent a century refining the art of hitching up and heading out. <a href="/1459-blue-ox">Blue Ox</a> is recognized internationally for producing towing equipment that is as dependable on mountain passes as it is on open plains — built for RVers, truck owners, and weekend adventurers alike.</p><p>The company began entering the recreational towing market in the early 1980s and, through strategic growth, evolved into a premier aftermarket towing manufacturer. Today, Blue Ox engineers and produces a comprehensive lineup that covers virtually every towing scenario on the road. Whether you're flat-towing a vehicle behind a motorhome or hauling a loaded travel trailer down the interstate, there's a Blue Ox product designed specifically for the task.</p><h3>A Complete Towing Ecosystem</h3><p>What sets Blue Ox apart is its commitment to building an integrated towing system rather than one-off components. At the heart of their lineup are their award-winning <a href="/1459-blue-ox-tow-bar-1200">tow bars</a>, including the popular Alpha and Avail models, which have earned a loyal following among flat-towing enthusiasts for their solid construction and easy setup. These work in concert with vehicle-specific baseplates to create a seamless connection between motorhome and towed vehicle.</p><p>For drivers pulling conventional trailers, Blue Ox's <a href="/1459-blue-ox-trailer-weight-distribution-kit-48263">trailer weight distribution kits</a> are a standout solution. The flagship SwayPro and TrackPro systems go beyond simple weight redistribution — they actively manage trailer sway using pre-loaded spring bars that counter the forces of crosswinds, rough roads, and passing trucks. The result is a dramatically more stable and controlled towing experience.</p><p>A complete towing setup also depends on solid attachment points and reliable electrical connections. Blue Ox's <a href="/1459-blue-ox-trailer-hitch-1212">trailer hitches</a> provide the foundational connection between tow vehicle and trailer, engineered to handle everything from light-duty loads to heavy commercial hauls. Their <a href="/1459-blue-ox-trailer-wiring-adapter-connector-2632">trailer wiring adapter connectors</a> ensure your brake lights, turn signals, and running lights communicate flawlessly between vehicles — an essential safety element often overlooked until something goes wrong. For situations where a standard hitch receiver isn't quite in the right position, Blue Ox <a href="/1459-blue-ox-trailer-hitch-receiver-extension-48970">trailer hitch receiver extensions</a> provide the necessary adjustment to achieve proper tow bar or hitch alignment.</p><h3>Built on a Century of Trust</h3><p>Blue Ox maintains a national network of trained and certified dealers, and even runs an RV park adjacent to its Nebraska factory — hosting traveling customers and conducting installation training sessions across the U.S. and Canada throughout the year. This dedication to the customer experience, from product design through post-sale support, reflects a brand that understands towing isn't just a mechanical exercise. It's about the confidence to go wherever the road leads.</p><ul><li>Extensive product lineup covering flat towing, trailer towing, and 5th wheel applications</li><li>Flagship SwayPro and TrackPro weight distribution systems with integrated sway control</li><li>Award-winning tow bar models engineered for quick connection and rugged durability</li><li>Full ecosystem of wiring, receiver extensions, and hitch accessories</li><li>Certified dealer and installer network spanning the U.S. and Canada</li></ul>

Picture for product is wrong - shows a ball-joint set - but there is no such part out there under the Spicer 2-2-1949 part-number I looked up. I want the flange yoke per the description...that better be what I get!
