Recommended Flat Towing Components For A 2015 Ford Expedition
Question:
I’m looking for the complete kit to flat tow my 2015 Ford Expedition LE which is also a 4x4. I’m leaning toward Roadmaster. Thanks

Roadmaster is a great choice when it comes to flat towing any vehicle; here are some of my recommendations to get you out on the road:
Baseplate: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # 4410-3.
Tow Bar: etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate # e84ZR This tow bar comes with safety cables bracketed to the arms so that you won't have to purchase any separately or worry about them dragging on the ground. The head and shank have a bit of adjustability to help keep the tow bar level between the motorhome and Expedition without also having to purchase a high/low adapter.
Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. This diode wiring will splice into your factory tail light wiring and display your motorhome's traffic signals through the tail lights of your Expedition.
Braking System: Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700. This fixed system will install in Expedition permanently so that every time you're ready to tow you'll be all ready to go and won't have to set up a portable system and remove it every time. You'll have to tap into your brake light switch wire for the indicator light included with this system, which will be a purple and white colored wire coming off of the brake pedal.
