The best base plate kit for your 2019 Ram 1500 Limited is going to be the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # RM-522203-5. This kit has removable arms that are not only the easiest to connect a tow bar to but are completely removable. This will give your truck as close to a factory look as possible when removed.
Some other parts you will need to flat tow your Ram are listed below along with any installation videos we may have. Feel free to email me back if you have any other questions or concerns.
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - Blue Ox Patriot Radio Frequency, Portable Braking System item # BLU37TR
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
