Can a 2003 Ford F-150 2WD Be Flat-Towed
Question:
Can I Flat Tow a 2003 Ford F-150 2WD with an Automatic Transmission?
asked by: Leonardo I
Expert Reply:
The best place to look for flat-tow compatibility is in your owner's manual but I do show certain models of a 2003 Ford F-150 being flat-towable. The Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit part # 492-1 (2WD Only, No Harley Davidson, Lightning, or STX) is what I recommend for a base plate and this will work well with a tow bar like the Roadmaster StowMaster Tow Bar part # RM-501. Then for the lighting you can use the Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights part # RM-2120.
I have attached a list of braking systems below as well if one is required.
