Can Roadmaster Parts be Used to Flat Tow 2024 Chevy Blazer
Question:
Hi, we own a 2017 Fleetwood Bounder 35k tow 5k lb limit ? and currently tow a 2016 Equinox fwd w Roadmaster All Terain bar, Demco Stay n play brake system, battery charger line, and fuse disconnect button at drivers dash. Wondering about up sizing to Chevy Blazer or Traverse or ?. Not sure if all newer models will work and if we should transfer any exhisting tow equipment to a new car. It looks like Blazer and Traverse require a battery disconnect vs the specific fuse disconnect we currently use. Open to all ideas and suggestion. Thx..... Rodger

Hey Rodger, when considering a vehicle for flat towing the first thing you want to consider is if it can be flat towed. Which to find that out the easiest will be to look online for the vehicle's owners manual and then scroll to index at the back and then look up the towing section and under that "recreational towing".
At this time for a 2024 Chevy Blazer we only have Blue Ox base plate kits like the part # BX1735 if it doesn't have the 2.0 turbo engine or the part # BLU58CR if it does have the 2.0 turbo. So to use that with a Roadmaster tow bar you would want the part # RM-031. Basically everything else you have would transfer over.
