Hey James, thanks for reaching out!
According to my research, your 2024 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss meets the requirements to be flat towed (it has a two-speed transfer case), but if the plow frame you're talking about is something you had installed for a plow, then you'll need to move your truck with a trailer because the plow mounts will be in the same location as the bracket for a base plate kit like the etrailer # e97FV.
The only other alternative would be to have the plow mounts removed and replaced by the base plate kit.
