Expert Answers about Chevrolet Equinox

• Do I Need a High Low Adapter to Flat Tow a 2024 Chevy Equinox RS?
• No, you shouldn't need one. When the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # RM-523193-5 is installed on the 2024 Chevy Equinox RS it measures 15-3/4" from the ground to the center of the arms. In order to be considered level the tow bar needs to be within 3" of the base plate arms. I checked Roadmaster's website and didn't see any adapters for a flag pole or Starlink mount. The best I can offer is the Camco Hitch-Mounted Flagpole Holder for 2" Hitch Receivers item # CAM51611. Here...

• Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Chevrolet Equinox
• To add a hitch to your 2024 Chevrolet Equinox, I recommend the Curt item # C77FR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Chevy with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that has a 4,500 lbs towing capacity and a 675 lbs maximum tongue weight. I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver exposed. This not only looks better but helps with ground clearance.

• Recommended 4-Way Mounting Bracket and Hitch for a 2020 Chevy Equinox
• You will need to purchase a separate bracket. I looked at our inventory and checked with our vendors. It looks like all the hitches for a 2020 Chevy Equinox don't have that built in tab. You'll want to use the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the Tekonsha item # 118285 connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road. The best hitch for your Equinox is the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C77FR....

• Easiest Tow Dollies To Maneuver When Unloaded
• The Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly # DM9713093 is our lightest tow dolly at only 510lbs. This would be the easiest to manuver in open areas and it has a tongue jack with a caster wheel. For smaller areas the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly # DM9713045 may be the better option as when folded it is only 67" long versus the X above at 147" long.
