Question:

Do these slide into to front of the frame and bolt in on 2023 ford bronco?

asked by: Mike

Expert Reply:

They sure do Mike! Our etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e56GV is going to attach directly to the frame of your 2023 Ford Bronco so long as you have the Ford Performance Heavy Duty Modular Bumper or standard plastic bumper. The baseplate will install where your tow hooks are currently mounted and bolt up in the same spot with the included hardware.

Here are the rest of the parts you'll need to flat tow your 2023 Ford Bronco:

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar item # e94ZR

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267. This diode kit will splice into your tail light wiring to display the signals from your motorhome through the tail lights of your Bronco. If you have variable voltage LED's then you'll want to use item # RM38FR instead.

Charge Line Kit - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit item # RM-156-25

Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes

High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.

What specific model is your Bronco and what motorhome are you going to be using to flat tow?
