Question:
GMC Canyon 2015 Does it include the pins?
asked by: Shirvey H
Expert Reply:
The Demco base plate kit # DM9519319 does include the pin that secures the tabs in the base plates. This is a tabless kit so the tabs remove from the base plates and stay on the tow bar side. The pins that connect the tabs to the tow bar are included with the tow bar and not the base plate. For a compatible tow bar I recommend the Commander II # DM9511012. Between the two you'll have all the hardware to mate them together.
You will need some other items when flat-towing you Canyon.
The lighting I recommend is part # RM-155. This will allow you to bypass the Canyon electrical system completely.
Most states now require supplemental brakes for a towed vehicle. I recommend the Roadmaster Even Brake Proportional Brake System, part # RM-9400. This system is one of the easiest to install and use and helps reduce wear on the towing vehicle as well as the towed vehicle.
You will want to check out your owner's manual or with your dealership for more information about flat-towing your Canyon.
I have attached a helpful article that explains flat-towing you can take a look at.
