Question:
Hey etrailer, I'm getting my 2027 Ram 1500 ready to flat tow behind our motorhome and would like to use the Curt setup. Can you give me a complete list of everything I need to get it hooked up and ready to tow? I want a portable brake system too. Thanks, Eric

Hey Eric, nice truck! I can definitely help you get everything together. For a complete flat tow setup on your 2027 Ram 1500 I recommend the following:
-Curt Custom Base Plate Kit # C27NQ
-Curt Rambler Non-Binding Tow Bar # C25DQ (includes safety cables)
-Curt Tow Bar Cover - Rambler # C56VV (optional)
-Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit # RM-15267
-Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25
-Blue Ox Patriot Portable Flat Tow Brake System # BLU37TR
-Blue Ox 12 Volt Power Outlet Kit # BLU33QV
The Curt # C27NQ fits the 2027 Ram 1500 as long as you don't have a Rebel, RHO, or Tungsten model. The removable arms also give you a clean look on the front of the truck when you aren't towing.
This pairs nicely with the Curt Rambler # C25DQ. It connects directly to the Curt base plates, has non-binding arms to make it easier to disconnect when you aren't perfectly level, and includes the safety cables so you won't need to purchase those separately.
You'll also want to measure the difference between the base plate and your motorhome's receiver once everything is installed. If they're more than 3" apart in height, you'll need a high-low adapter like # e52ZV to keep the tow bar level. I attached an article further down on this page which explains how to measure.
What kind of motorhome do you have and where are you headed once you get the Ram ready to go?
