Expert Reply:

To add a set of base plates to your 2007 Toyota Tacoma, I recommend the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit item # 1175-3. This kit has removable tabs for a clean look when your truck is not being flat towed. These tabs are compatible with Roadmaster tow bars. They are not compatible with the X-Runner model.

If you are needing a base plate kit for the X-Runner model Tacoma or you have a Blue Ox tow bar, you will want the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BX3763.

Some other parts you will need to flat tow your 2007 Toyota Tacoma are listed below:

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643 not compatible with Blue Ox.

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267

Supplemental Braking System - Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System item # HM39524

High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
