Hi Brian; we can definitely get you set up with a Blue Ox system to flat tow your 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel. In addition to the base plate kit you will need a tow bar, safety cables, wiring, and a supplemental braking system. I recommend the following:
-Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms E # BLU99FR
-Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 10,000 lbs # BX7420 (Includes Safety Cables)
-Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267
-Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes # SM99251
or
-Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Air Brakes # SM99243
More than likely you will also need a high-low adapter to keep your setup level. Check out the article below which explains how to measure and choose the right adapter. I also attached a link for local installers using your zip code below. Sometimes it changes the zip code back to one here in Missouri but all you need to do is enter yours again and hit search to bring up the list.
