Question:

I used a search engine to find the online copy of the owner's manual of a 2017 Chevy Equinox and on page 263 it states that both front wheel drive and all-wheel drive models can be flat towed. There are a number of parts you will need in order to flat tow, which are the following:

- Base Plate Kit: Demco Classic Base Plate Kit # DM9518315
- Tow Bar: Demco Excali-Bar III Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511013
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267
- Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25 (You will also need Motorhome Charge Line Kit # RM-156-75 if your motorhome does not have one)
- Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass # RM-76517 (4-Cylinder Engines) OR Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass # RM76511 (V6 Engines)
- Supplemental Braking System: Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700 with Stop Light Switch Kit - Chevrolet Equinox # RM-751439

Additionally, I have added links to instruction manuals, video reviews and installations for you to take a look at.
