Question:
Can you tell me what all parts I will need to flat tow my 2023 Ford Bronco base model behind a FR3 motorhome?

Expert Reply:
First you will need either the Base Plate # RM79RR for the factory plastic bumper or the Base Plate # RM92ZR if you have the Ford Modular front bumper. I recommend using the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 as the arm bodies have an aluminum construction to help resist corrosion. It also has built in LED lights which make it much easier to connect or disconnect in the dark. You may need a High-Low adapter like the 4" # RM-048-4 to keep the bars within 3" of level from your motorhome to the front of your Bronco.
The Roadmaster Accessory Kit # RM-9284-2 will contain locks, lube, a case, cover and most of the wiring you will need. You will need to use either the Smart Diodes for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RO54FR or Smart Diodes for Variable Voltage Incandescent Tail Lights # RO34FR in place of the standard diodes in the kit. And a Battery Charge Line # RM-156-25 is going to be needed to prevent draining the vehicle battery by the supplemental braking system.
I recommend the Demco Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # DM86VR for braking. This system prevents false braking by looking for both a brake signal to the tail lights and also feeling the momentum of the motorhome slowing down. The system is mounted on your Bronco and all you will need to do is flip a switch on and off when you are getting ready to tow or disconnecting. There is no fumbling with boxes or wires to connect.
