You will need the Roadmaster Base Plate # RM-521196-4 for your 2017 Toyota Tacoma. This will allow you to use the Roadmaster Guardian Rock Guard # RM-4000. You will be able to connect your Tacoma to your Thor Ace 29.3 using the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 and a Quick Disconnect Crossbar # 910021-00. You may need a High-Low adapter like the 4" # RM-048-4 if the height from your receiver to the Tacoma is off by more than 3".

The Accessory Kit # RM-9284-2 will provide you with the wiring needed to connect your tail lights as well as cover, case, lube and locks to secure the tow bar. I also recommend installing the Charge Line # RM-156-25 with the wiring to ensure the battery on your Tacoma is not drained while being flat towed.
