Question:
would you make the same recommendations to tow 2024 Equinox RS AWD with a 2023 Bay Star 3014? What about a permanent (not portable) braking system?

Expert Reply:
I would be happy to! To flat tow your 2024 Chevy Equinox RS you will need the following parts:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643
Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # RM-523193-5
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM38FR for LED lights or item # RM26FR for Incandescent Lights
Charge Line - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles item # RM-156-25
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.

Thanks, Jerrod. I'm glad I asked. I don't see the link to the article on high low adaptors.
