To flat tow your 2012 Ford Edge Limited you will need the following parts:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643
Replacement Quick Disconnect Crossbar Assembly for Roadmaster Motorhome Mounted Tow Bars item # 910021-00
Base Plate Kit - Without Adaptive Cruise Control - Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit item # 4408-1
- with Adaptive Cruise Control - Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit item # 524426-1
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.
I have linked all of the instructions below along with any installation videos we may have on these products. If you have anymore questions feel free to email me directly.
