Hello Mitchell, you came to the right place. Here is what I recommend for flat towing your 1998 Suzuki Sidekick Sport 4 Door 4x4:

- Demco Classic Base Plate Kit - Fixed Arms # DM9517020

- etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs # e34ZR

- Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Way Coiled Adapter Cord # RM-15267

- Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes - Proportional # SM99251

That covers all of the main components. You may want to get a cover # e76FV and hitch lock # e98881 for your tow bar.

You may also need a drop hitch like part # BLU28XR to compensate for any height differences between the base plate arms and the hitch on your RV. Any difference of more than 3" will require a drop hitch. Keep in mind the tow bar has 2" of rise or drop built into the shank.

Take a look at the install videos I linked for you below.
