Blue Ox Base Plate Kit for Flat Towing 2011 Chevy Tahoe

Question:

Looking for a setup to tow 2011 Tahoe behind motorhome. I already have Blue Ox brand tow bars and most of a brake buddy system. I need base plates, maybe some wiring, etc. I need help to make sure i get it right.

Since you have a Blue Ox tow bar already the base plate kit you'd want is the Blue Ox part # BX1676 which fits your 2011 Chevy Tahoe. Most likely you are missing the breakaway kit of your Break Buddy so for that you'd want the part # HM39340.

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.
