Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2020 Chevy Equinox
Question:
Can you please provide a list of all of the equipment I need to flat tow my 2020 Chevy Equinox 2LT FWD? In my cart so far I have these items: BX1730 BX7380 SM99251 RM156-25 I’m not sure which kit I need for the tail light operation as well as any other necessary items I may be missing. Thank you so much.

You are off to a great start for all of the parts needed to flat tow your 2020 Chevy Equinox. The Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX1730 is a confirmed fit for your vehicle and the tow bar part # BX7380 would work well with it and is easy to use as well. The braking system part # SM99251 is our installers favorite kit as it's easy to use and also works really well. The charge line part # RM-156-25 will keep the battery of your vehicle topped off as well. And then since you do not have a Premier model you'd want the # RO94FR for lighting as this works with the style of wiring your vehicle has.
I attached an install video for the wiring on a similar 2019 Chevy Equinox for you to check out as well.
