The parts I recommend for flat towing your 2022 Chevy Colorado behind your Class C are listed below. Please keep in mind that you can only flat tow a 4WD version of this vehicle according to the owner's manual.
Flat Tow Parts
Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Basic Z71 # RM37VR, ZR2 #RM78VR, or ZR2 Bison # RM33VR
Nighthawk All Terrain Tow Bar - # RM-676
Towing Combo Kit - # RM-9284-2
Auto Battery Disconnect - # RM-766
Stay-IN-Play DUO Brake System - # DM86VR
Brake Light Switch Kit - # RM-751472
High-Low Adapter - See Linked Article
The Direct-Connect base plates look really sleek and are hardly noticeable once removed. The Nighthawk All Terrain tow bar not only pairs nicely with this base plate kit but it also includes LED lights on the arms which look nice but also shows others at night that your vehicle is being flat towed.
The combo kit finishes out the parts needed for wiring plus provides some niceties like a cover for the tow bar and locks to keep everything secured and then the auto battery disconnect makes it easy for you to disconnect your battery with the push of a button instead of having to physically disconnect it every time.
The Stay-IN-Play DUO brake system installs permanently on your truck but is out of the way for everyday driving but easy to connect and switch on when you need to flat tow. The brake light kit makes it easy to find the brake light wire for the alert system so you know when the pedal on your truck is being pressed.
Attached are some videos for you to check out. For local places that can do the installations you can either use our dealer locator (found on each product page) or find a shop that has a good reputation to do the installation for you as we don't have a specific company or companies that we recommend for installs.
