Expert Reply:

4WD models of the 2007 Chevy Tahoe are capable of being flat towed without removing the driveshaft but there are other steps listed in the manual to follow to get it ready to tow with all four wheels on the ground. You'll need a tow bar, tow bar wiring kit, base plate, braking system, and safety cables to tow your vehicle. I have the following recommendations for you below:

Tow Bar: Blue Ox Alpha 2 Non-Binding Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,500lbs Item # BX7380. This tow bar has non-binding latches that make it easy to unhook the tow bar on any terrain.

Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit Item # RM-154. This wiring kit will splice into your vehicle's wiring and use its tail lights to signal instead of running magnetic lights to the rear of the vehicle every time you want to tow.

Base Plate: Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # BX1676. This base plate has removable arms that provide a clean and unobtrusive look when not in use.

Braking System: Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional Item # HM39524. This system offers intense, emergency braking or steady, smooth braking in a single portable system. Easily switch between proportional or full braking using the remote from the RV. The included charge line kit will keep your vehicle's battery charged while towing.

Safety Cables: Blue Ox 7' Safety Cables - 7,500lbs - Qty 2 Item # BX88196. The coiled design prevents the cables from dragging on the ground and being damaged.
