Question:
Michael answered me with baseplate #1635 for my 1999 suburban. Could you give me the other options he mentioned. The delivery date is out and I’d like to get this done earlier if it’s feasible. Even if I have to do some fabricating. Thanks again

We have several options of base plates for your 1999 Chevrolet Suburban, my suggestion is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX1635 as this is designed to mate to Blue Ox tow bars.
For lighting there are several options. If you will not be towing often then I recommend a magnetic kit like # RM-2120. If you will be towing often then a more permanent solution like # RM-154 would be the way to go.
For supplemental braking I suggest the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional, # HM39524. The Brake Buddy Select 3 is a proportional braking system that applies your towed car's brakes with an intensity that matches your RV's braking action.
