Congrats on the new motorhome! I was looking at the features that came with your 2024 Dynamax Dynaquest XL. It does not look like it came prepped for a flat towing set up so you're going to need the Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Air Brakes item # SM99243. Now if you do end up having the BrakeSync set up you'll want the item # DM23MV you were looking at but I did not see it as an option.

For a Blue Ox tow bar, I recommend the 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.

Here are some other parts you will need to flat tow your 2023 Ford Bronco:

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 or the standard bumper.

Wiring Harness - Which one you need will depend on which lights your model Bronco has because there are a couple of different options. If you have the regular lighting package you can use the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267. If you have variable voltage LED's you'll need to use item # RM38FR and for variable voltage incandescent lights you'll need item # RM26FR.

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.

I heard that there is a curt wiring harness that is plug and play. I have led taillights.

@MarcM Yes, there is! It is PN 58992 and we do not have it.

@JerredH I heard a couple of places that a charger should be hooked up to the battery in the bronco because if the voltage drops the bronco will go out of flat tow mode.

@MarcM I hadn't heard that and checked with Roadmaster and our tech tips and there's no mention of it. The reasoning is sound though and installing one will cause no harm. You can easily add one with the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles item # RM-156-25.
