I am glad that I read through all of the posts. I contacted Blue Ox about having mine repaired and this was their answer.
Thank you for contacting us,
We do not service towbars over 8 years old. This towbar BX7335 is very old. We stopped making this towbar back in 2006. Towbars do wear out, and metal fatigue starts to set in. We recommend getting a towbar replaced around 8-10 years. Our dealers can offer $150 trade in discount towards a new towbar. We do have a dealer locator on our website at
www.blueox.com. There you can put in your address, and it will pull Blue Ox dealers up around you. That way you can call around to see what they can offer you for a new towbar.
Please let me know if you have any further questions
Thank you
