Parts needed to flat tow 2026 Chevy Trax
asked by: L S
Expert Reply:
Hello L; to flat tow your 2026 Chevy Trax you will need a tow bar, base plate kit, safety cables, wiring, and a supplemental brake system. I recommend the following:
-Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM25EQ
-Roadmaster Falcon 3HD Tow Bar # RM27NQ
-Roadmaster 80" Hybrid Coiled-to-Straight Safety Cables # RM-674
-Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for Variable Voltage Incandescent Tail Lights # RM26FR
-Roadmaster Battery Disconnect for Towed Vehicle w/ Flat Tow Brake System # RM-766
-Curt RVi Series Shadow 2 Flat Tow Brake System # RVI94FR (includes charge line)
You may also need a high-low adapter like the etrailer High-Low Adjustable Adapter for Tow Bars # e52ZV. I linked an article further down on this page which explains how to measure and choose the right adapter.
Any big trips planned once you get your Trax all set up?

Hey L, how’s your flat tow setup coming along with the Trax 2RS? I’m curious if the Roadmaster parts and the Curt brake system worked well together. Your update could make it easier for others planning a similar setup.
