• Recommended Parts for Flat Towing 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4 Behind Motorhome
  To flat tow your vehicle, you'll need a tow bar, base plates, safety cables, a wiring solution so that the truck taillights work in conjunction with those of the tow vehicle, a supplemental braking system and possibly a high/low adapter. For Blue Ox parts starting with the tow bar, I'd go with the Blue Ox Avail, part # BX7420. This tow bar has a 10K capacity like you were looking for, and features non-binding self aligning arms that make hooking up and detaching very easy. The safety cables...

• Can a 2011 GMC Yukon 4x4 with Single Speed Transfer Case Be Modified to Flat Tow?
  You are correct that the 2011 GMC Yukon 4x4 with single speed transfer case cannot be flat towed as is. I've attached a photo of the pages from the owners manual to assist. It is logical to think because the 2 speed transfer case models can be flat towed without issue that dropping the drive shaft as you stated would allow you to safely tow your single speed vehicle. Without proper testing, I can't confirm this would be the case, but it is very logical. If you decide to tow it, I recommend...

• Base Plate Kit and Other Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  With the Roadmaster Sterling, part # RM-576, I recommend the MX kit, part # 3154-3, for a base plate kit that fits your 2010 Chevrolet Silverado. The safety cables of the Sterling won't fit with these but you can attach the cables somewhere else on the truck. The wiring kit to power the truck's lights that I suggest is the diode kit, part # RM-15267. It provides a 6-way connector at the front of the truck and a cord to connect the RV's 7-way to that 6-way. For a supplemental braking...

• Will Roadmaster Stoplight Switch Kit part # RM-751421 Fit 2017 GMC Sierra
  The stoplight switch kit part # RM-751421 that you referenced has been tested on your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 by Roadmaster and they found that it is completely safe to use and works well. It does not tie into the truck's stoplight circuit at all so it would not interfere at all either.

• Is it Possible to Flat-Tow a 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 Behind a Motorhome?
  You can tow your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 behind your motorhome if it is four-wheel drive, so long as you have a 2-speed transfer case with a neutral setting. While it is also possible to do so with a two-wheel drive version, it will take an extra step. For a 2WD with a 4.3L V6, as well as a 2WD with a 5.3L V8, you will need to have a lube pump kit installed, or for a 6.2L V8, you will have to have a drive shaft disconnect.

  Given that your 2012 Chevy Silverado 1500 could easily get over the 5,000 pound limit of the base plates you're refering to I recommend going with a different set.

• Is A Supplemental Braking System Required When Flat Towing A 2012 Chevy Silverado
  Use of a supplemental braking system is typically required by law (depending on the state) and is well worth the money to ensure that your towed vehicle can stop in the event of a breakaway and to reduce wear and tear on the motorhome. The Roadmaster Nighthawk # RM-676 is a great tow bar, but has no way to activate the brakes in your Silverado. There are two styles of supplemental braking systems; portable or fixed. Portable systems will typically require a small amount of wiring to be...

• Stop Light Switch Kit for Flat Towing a 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500
  Your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 requires the use of a stop light switch kit # RM-751421 because there isn't the appropriate signal at the brake switch while the truck is set up for flat towing. Basically the way it works is when the brake pedal is moving on the truck it pushes in on a little sensor that completes a circuit (power for it comes from the truck) to power the indicator on a supplemental braking system.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ
  Hopefully my dog doesn't eat it. In addition to the tow bar, supplemental braking, and wiring you also need a base plate kit and likely a high-low adapter to tow your 2009 Chevy Silverado.
