Hey John, thanks for reaching out. I looked up the online manual for the 2024 Chevy Trax and according to the manual this vehicle can be dinghy towed with all 4 wheels on the ground, or it can be dolly towed with the front wheels off the ground. I included a screenshot from the manual below. I do suggest that you read over your manual and make sure this is consistent with what you see in yours. Also make sure you fully read and understand all of the instructions pertaining to flat towing.
Here is a complete list of parts I recommend for your flat tow setup:
- Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM25EQ
- Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar w/ LED Lights - Non-Binding - RV Mount - 8,000 lbs # RM-676
- Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RO44FR (or use # RO94FR if you have incandescent lights)
- Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25
- Roadmaster Battery Disconnect for Towed Vehicle w/ Flat Tow Brake System - Gas Only # RM-766
- Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes - Proportional # SM99251
