We do carry all the parts to give your 2019 Ram 1500 with the new body style a complete flat towing set up consisting of all Roadmaster parts. Please note the correct base plate kit will depend on if your '19 Ram 1500 is a Rebel model or not. Here are all the parts you'll need for your truck:

- Base Plate Kit (2019 Ram 1500 All Models EXCEPT Rebel): Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-522203-5
OR
- Base Plate Kit (2019 Ram 1500 Rebel Model Only): Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-522205-5
- Tow Bar: Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-422
- Safety Chains: Roadmaster 80" Coiled Safety Cables # RM-645
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267
- Roadmaster Universal Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751000
- Supplemental Braking System (Permanent Install): Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700
OR
- Supplemental Braking System (Portable): Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Supplemental Braking System # RM-9400 with 12 Volt Outlet Kit # RM-9332

The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates are have removable tabs so the base plates won't be visible when your aren't using them, and the BlackHawk 2 tow bar is a great option because it has longer arms than other tow bars which make it easier to maneuver when towing, and the weight capacity needed for a large truck.

The Flexo-Coli wiring kit is designed to prevent any type of electrical feedback to keep your Ram's electrical systems safe and sound, while the InvisiBrake is a one-time set up for convenience while also giving you the ability to adjust the braking pressure so you have just the right amount. The Even Brake is a great option if you plan on flat towing multiple vehicles or simply would rather not do a permanent install; the 12-volt outlet kit is needed with this unit, but not the InvisiBrake. The Stop Light Switch is needed with both options to activate the unit's motorhome brake-monitoring system.

You may also need a high-low adapter such as # RM-070 in order to keep your tow bar level, and I've added a link to a help article which shows you how to determine if you need an adapter, as well as a link to our selection of adapters.
