Yes, since the Rampage SuperBrite LED Tailgate Light Bar # RA960134 provides stop, turn, and running light functions it could be used as tow bar lighting.

okay so I had purchase the rampage 60 inch bar for my 2019 trail boss. after watching the install on youtube from this company it looks pretty easy. Just a few question tho. Underneath the truck I unplugged the connection from the housing unit which leaves me the round 7 pin plug that connects to both 7 and 4 on other side of bumper. with the hopkins trailer extension harness do I plug the female in to the trailer part of plug and on other side cut off the end and splice in the wire going into factory wires into round plastic peace? thanks hope to hear from you soon

You're correct - the female end of the Hopkins Extension Loop # HM48235 is what will plug into the Light Bar's 4-Way connector. You will cut off the connector at the other end of the loop and splice the wires into the wiring on your truck that's going to the factory connector.

And do I pull off the back tail light to run the white wire to a positive feed to get the reverse to work

The Rampage Light Bar # RA960134 doesn't have reverse light function, but if your particular bar does, you will indeed need to splice into that circuit on your truck. The factory wiring leading up to the 7-Way connector (that you're using already for tapping into the other functions) should also include a reverse circuit wire. Test the wiring to verify which one it is. You shouldn't need to remove the tail light housing to access that circuit.
