Question:
I want to put an OX base plate on my jeep. I think it will fit. I am attaching photos of the setup. The bumper is made by JCR offroad and its a shorty. The skid plate will be removed and modified. I need to know the dimensions of the brackets that connect to the frame, and from the pictures any advice. Thanks

I went to our warehouse to measure the brackets on the Blue Ox base plate # BX1126 to provide you the measurements you are needing. The bottom edge of the bracket measures 10-inches and the top edge measures 5-1/4 inches. The height is 8.32 inches. Take a look at the diagram I created for you.
The base plate # BX1126 will fit your 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, but it hasn't been tested with an aftermarket JCR Off-road bumper. Based on your picture though, it seems as if the bumper will not interfere with the base plates.
I included a installation video on the base plates on a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited for you though.
