In order to flat tow your 2022 Ford F-150 you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, supplemental braking system, along with some additional wiring parts. I recommend the following:
-Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit: # RM38VR
-Nighthawk All Terrain Tow Bar w/ LED Lights: # RM-676
-Nighthawk Towing Combo Kit: # RM-9284-2
-Battery Charge Line Kit: # RM-156-25
-Brake-Lite Relay Kit: # RM-88400
-Brake System: # DM86VR (for hydraulic motorhome brakes) or # DM26VR (for air motorhome brakes)
It is also likely you will need a high-low adapter for your tow bar. I have attached a helpful article below which will help you decide which one is correct for your setup. The article includes a link to all of the high-low adapters we have available.
