<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>

Product Details

The Blue Ox BXW0873 2-Point Weight Distribution Hitch is a revolutionary towing solution designed specifically for trailers with underslung couplers welded to the bottom of the frame. This heavy-duty hitch combines both weight distribution and integrated sway control in one system, delivering a safer and more controlled towing experience.

Dual-Function Design:

Unlike traditional weight distribution hitches, the 2-Point system handles both weight distribution and sway control simultaneously. The loaded spring bars work in conjunction with friction L-brackets to create steel-on-steel contact that actively minimizes trailer sway. By redistributing weight to the tow vehicle's front axles, this hitch improves steering control and braking performance, making your towing experience safer and more predictable.

Key Specifications:

  • Underslung coupler hitch head for trailers with bottom-mounted couplers
  • 800 lbs. maximum tongue weight capacity
  • 8,000 lbs. maximum gross towing weight
  • Standard 6-hole adjustable shank for precise height adjustment
  • Fits 2" receiver hitches
  • Pre-installed chrome-plated 2-5/16" hitch ball (12K rated)
  • Heavy-duty steel construction with powder coat over e-coat finish

Features & Benefits:

  • Round spring bars flex for a smooth, controlled ride
  • Rigid L-brackets securely hold spring bars in place
  • Clamp-on brackets for secure attachment
  • Back up without disconnecting the system
  • Easy installation with basic hand tools
  • Backed by Blue Ox limited lifetime warranty

The Blue Ox 2-Point system evenly disperses trailer tongue weight across both the tow vehicle and trailer axles through connecting spring bars, ensuring optimal weight distribution and stability. Whether you're towing a travel trailer, utility trailer, or boat, this hitch provides the control and confidence you need on the road.

This harness fit perfectly super easy plug n play installation and great price.

The instructions state the need for a 13mm socket but it's a 14 that's needed. Also the spacers on the light bar are too big to use both in the bull bar. Had to split one in half. Also, absolutely ZERO instructions with the light bar installation in the bull bar was infuriating.

Great price
