Flat Tow Package For A 2012 Smart ForTwo
Question:
Do you have a tow package that will work for a 2012 Smartcar Passion ForTwo to tow behind my RV?
asked by: Robert L
Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes we do, Robert. Here is what I recommend for flat towing your 2012 Smart Fortwo:
- Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1987
- etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Blue Ox and Curt Base Plates - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 6K lbs # e47ZR
- Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267
- Roadmaster Battery Disconnect with Switch for Towed Vehicle # RM-766
- Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System # SM99251
- Smart Car Brake Pedal Adapter For Demco Braking Systems # SM99602
You may also need a drop hitch to compensate for any height differences between the base plate and the hitch on your motorhome. Anything more than 3" out of level will require a drop hitch such as part # BLU48CR. As with any flat tow setup we do recommend that you check your owner's manual and thoroughly read all information pertaining to towing your vehicle.
