Expert Reply:

To flat tow your 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands behind your RV with a Blue Ox set up you will need the following parts:

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Blue Ox Alpha 2 Non-Binding Tow Bar item # BX7380. This tow bar features non-binding latches and a swivel function that makes connecting/disconnecting on any terrain easy.

Base Plate Kit - Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BLU23XR is designed to fit all models of the 2023 Ford Bronco with the Ford Performance heavy duty modular bumper and the standard bumper. This installation does require some trimming of the bumper (fascia, plastic, and/or grille) and some minor drilling.

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267

Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes

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.
