To flat tow a 2007 Nissan Titan I recommend the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit, # 341-1 and the Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar, # RM-422.

For safety cables you can use # RM-643. 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 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 a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.

All states now require supplemental braking in the vehicle being flat towed. The Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Supplemental Braking System, # RM-9400 is one of the easiest to install and use.

Most likely you will also need a high low adapter so that the tow bar will be level when you are flat towing. I attached a link to a page that has all of the ones we carry.

I have included a couple of helpful links to our articles on flat towing for you. Be sure to consult the vehicle owners manual for more specific information on flat towing your vehicle.

A Ranger and Toyota an be flat towed as well.
