Question:
I am looking to flat tow my 2023 Chevy Trailblazer. I have a Blue Ox tow bar that I am hoping I can use. What other parts will I need?

Expert Reply:
Since you already have a Blue Ox tow bar you will want the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BLU49FR. This kit is confirmed to fit all models of the 2023 Trailblazer, RS, L, LS, LT, and ACTIV. This base plate has removable arms that will work with most Blue Ox tow bars.
Here are some other parts you will need to flat tow your 2023 Chevy Trailblazer:
Safety Chains - Roadmaster item # RM-643
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage Incandescent Tail Lights item # RM26FR or item # RM38FR for LED lights
Battery Disconnect Switch - Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect item # RM-766
Supplemental Braking System - Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System item # HM39524
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
