Okay, we can get you set up, and let's start with the tow bar adapter, for which you'll need a different one than the part you mentioned for the Roadmaster base plates that fit your 2019 Lincoln Nautilus, which are the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-524461-5.
These are direct connect base plates, the correct part is the following:

From an online search for the 2021 Lincoln Nautilus Owners Manual, it lists that only the 2.7L model can be flat towed. You will want to look in your vehicle specific owners manual for instructions, this will be listed under Recreational Towing. From the copy I reviewed it states to use the manual park release procedure which is simply is to switch the ignition on, press and hold the brake pedal then push the switch down until the red warning lamp turns off.

What you have is the Curt # C49HR which is a 7-way RV to 4-way round. If you don't have a 7-way on your motorhome you will need to add one with the # ETBC7 along with extra wire # 10-2-1. Then you could use the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-152. You will also need a battery disconnect # RM-766 if you don't already have one. view full answer...
I recommend going with the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e36RR for your 2021 Lincoln Nautilus because it has a matte black finish that matches the trim on your Nautilus and does a better job at hiding any scratches from road debris than the classic glossy finish that you find with other hitches.
If you don't already have a bike rack then I recommend checking out the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack # KU84FR. This rack was designed for ease of use and it features a unique U-Shaped frame that makes... view full answer...
For vehicles that require the battery be disconnected when flat towing but also use supplemental braking that needs a power source like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR you'd need to wire the outlet kit part # RM-9332 directly to the vehicle battery. This gives you the power source from the battery that is active while the vehicle isn't connected to anything. view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Curt Manufacturing, and was told that the spacer plate of the Curt sway control # 17200 is typically used if you are planning on bolting the ball to the trailer frame (instead of using the self-tapping screws). The ball would be stacked on top of the spacer plate then bolted to the trailer frame. view full answer...
I am not sure what you are referring to but the Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX2680 is a confirmed fit for the 2020 Lincoln Nautilus. For a really great tow bar to use with the the # BX7420 is very easy to use and well designed.
For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with... view full answer...
The Draw Tite hitch part # 75234 is the most hidden trailer hitch for your 2020 Lincoln Nautilus. Only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper which will give you a mostly hidden look and will also help with ground clearance. I attached a picture that shows what it looks like installed as well. The picture is of a Ford Edge which is the same platform as your Nautilus. I also attached an install video link too.
For trailer wiring the best option is the Tekonsha kit part # 118803 which... view full answer...
Hello Raymond, a 2023 Lincoln Nautilus can be flat towed, but only if it is a 2.7L V6. The 2.0L AWD and FWD models cannot be flat towed and must be towed with all 4 wheels off of the ground, such as using a car trailer.
If yours is a 2.7L V6, you can flat tow using the manual park release procedure highlighted on page 218 of your owner's manual. You will want to put your climate control system in recirculated air mode to prevent exhaust fumes from entering the vehicle. Also, you can never... view full answer...
The hands-free liftgate will still work on your 2019 Lincoln Nautilus after installing the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C78KR.
You'll have to kick your foot to the side of the receiver instead of the middle but it will still be functional. view full answer...
For what you described wanting from a bike rack the Kuat Beta part # B202-2 is the way to go. This rack is super easy to install and remove as it only weighs 12 lbs and is very easy to load bikes on and off as well. It stores easily too since it folds up pretty small when not in use.
Then for a hitch the Draw Tite part # 75234 is a really great option. It's mostly hidden and has best weight capacities. Check out the install video and picture I attached for more info. view full answer...
In order to use the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar part # RM-676 on your 2019 Lincoln Nautilus you'll need the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-524461-5.

Since you already have a Blue Ox tow bar # BX7420 I would go with the Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX2680 for your 2020 Lincoln Nautilus. I think the Blue Ox base plate kits are the easiest to use and are definitely the highest quality so this would be the way to go. This would also prevent you from having to use any adapters. The Roadmaster Direct Connect base plates are easier to use but having used them all I would give the edge to the Blue Ox although some might have differing opinions. view full answer...
The installation of a trailer hitch on your 2019 Lincoln Nautilus will not have any effect on the ability to use your lift gate. If you are referring to the hands free lift gate feature then what typically happens with this is that you just simply need to place your foot on either side of the receiver tube in order to activate the sensor but it will still work nonetheless. This is the case for pretty much any vehicle with a hands free lift gate feature.
I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame... view full answer...
I checked the owner's manual for a 2019 Lincoln Nautilus and only the models with a 2.7 L engine can be flat-towed, not models with a 2.0 L engine. There is no mention of the pre-collision avoidance feature being an issue so you can still flat tow the vehicle if you have this assuming you have the correct engine size. In order to flat-tow this vehicle you'll need a number of different components of which I have attached below.

Since the tow dolly has built in lights and either a 4-way connector or 7-way connector depending on if the dolly you have has electric brakes or not, there are a few things to test.
First using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 you will want to test the connector on your RV to make sure power is making its way through the connector. You will want to have a buddy operate the turn signals, running lights, and brake pedal while you check each of the pins for power.

On vehicle's that have rear lift gate sensors like the 2019 Lincoln Nautilus the installation of a trailer hitch blocks one or more of the sensors. This is be the same with any brand hitch you install. You will still be able to use the lift gate feature by kicking the sides of the bumper where the other sensors are located.
The Draw-Tite hitch option part # 75234 is a concealed cross tube design so the only portion of the hitch that will be visible after install is the receiver. I have... view full answer...
For a Blue Ox base plate kit that fits your 2021 Lincoln Nautilus you'd want the part # BX2680.
In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. One of the most popular compatible tow bars is the Blue Ox Avail # BX7420 which comes with safety cables. The coiled design helps keep the cables off of the ground.
For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about... view full answer...
