Expert Reply:
To flat tow a 2022 Ram 1500 behind a 2012 Tiffin Phaeton 40QKH you will need the following parts:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX7420
Base Plate Kit - Blue Ox Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # BLU99FR
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - Demco Air Force One Supplemental Braking System for Motor Homes with Air Brakes item # SM99243
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.
For a 2018 Jeep Wrangler you'll need the following parts to flat tow it:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX7420
Base Plate Kit - Blue Ox Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # BX1139
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - Demco Air Force One Supplemental Braking System for Motor Homes with Air Brakes item # SM99243
