Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2020 Chevy Equinox
Question:
I am going to flat tow a 2020 Chevy Equinox behind a class A with air brakes. I watched your video which was very informative. The P/Ns that he recommended were RN-676, RM-523193-5, RM-154, SM-99243 and RM-156-25. I dont know how old the video is, but would you still recommend these same products? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The parts mentioned for flat towing a 2020 Chevy Equinox would work really well but I might change the lighting setup. The # RM-154 is a great diode kit but the part # RM-9284-2 comes with this kit as well as locks and a storage bag for the Nighthawk part # RM-676 as well.
Other than that the base plate part # RM-523193-5 is a great option that is easy to use, the Air Force One part # SM99243 is a great option if the motorhome has air brakes, and the charge line kit part # RM-156-25 will keep the battery topped off.
