We can get you the right parts needed to flat tow your 1987 Suzuki Samurai behind your motorhome, as you'll need a base plate, tow bar, safety chains, wiring kit, and supplemental braking system. I'll make a list for you of the parts you need for your Samurai.
- Base Plate Kit: Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # 1003-1
- Tow Bar: Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520
- Safety Chains: Roadmaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables # RM-643
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs # RM-155
- Supplemental Braking System: Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39494
You may also need a high-low adapter such as # RM-070 in order to keep your tow bar level, and I've added a link to a help article which shows you how to determine if you need an adapter, as well as a link to our selection of adapters. Additionally, I have added links below to instruction manuals, video reviews and installations for you to take a look at.
