Recommended Flat Towing Parts for a 2024 Chevy Equinox w/ LED Lights
Question:
I am getting a 2024 Chevy Equinox and I want to get all the parts around to flat tow it behind my RV. I am confused by what wiring I will need. It has LED lights but I see a few options. Could you give me a list of parts?

Congrats on the new vehicle! To flat tow your 2024 Chevy Equinox you will need the following parts:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643
Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # RM-523193-5
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM38FR
Charge Line - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles item # RM-156-25
Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes
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.
