In order to use the Blue Ox Avail Tow Bar part # BX7420 on a 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 you'll need the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit part # BX1674. In regards to a supplemental braking system, this is separate and for this I recommend the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR which is one of the easiest to install options.
