Question:
Hello, i have a 2025 Bronco that i an wanting to flat tow behind my f350 with a slide in truck camper. From the f350 perspective i should be good as i already have a 30k magnum superhitch with extension to get past the camper. I have the capable bumper on the Bronco and am changing out the stock D-rings for the modular bumpers recovery points. I am also adding frame horn reinforcements. I am thinking of using these components but wanted to get your opinion. Night hawk tow bar RM-676, adaptors for ford recovery points RM-035-1, the demco stay in play duo brake controller SM99251, and diode led kit RM-15267. Does this sound correct? I am also not sure if I will need a riser to level the tow bars, but if i do, do you have recommendations on this? Is there anything that i may have missed? Thanks in advance, Tom

Hi Tom,
It sounds like you've got a good start to the parts you need to flat tow your 2025 Ford Bronco!
The Roadmaster Nighthawk Tow Bar part # RM-676 is a fantastic tow bar! Especially with all its additional features like the lights, safety cables, and the 7-way to 6-way umbilical cord you'll need to connect to your motorhome. Since you're switching out your D-rings to the modular D-ring bumper mounts and confirmed that your bumper is rated for towing, the Roadmaster Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts part # RM-035-1 will pair perfectly with your Bronco and Roadmaster Nighthawk tow bar.
Instead of using the Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit part # RM-15267, I suggest you get the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring part # RM-152. It has the same diodes, wiring, loom, and connectors you'll need but doesn't include the umbilical cord and bracket. Since the Nighthawk tow bar already comes with the 6-round to 7-way cord with the bracket, getting the RM-15267 would give you duplicates. However, if you have LED taillights, you'll need to use the Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for LED Taillights part # RO44FR which also works with the 6-round to 7-way cord and has the specific diodes and wiring you'll need for LED lights.
You'll also need a charge line kit to keep your battery from dying while you're towing it, which is the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed part # RM-156-25.
For your braking system, the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo part # SM99251 is a personal favorite of mine because it works so well, so I'm thrilled that's what you're going with! It'll permanently install in the Bronco so it's easy as plugging in and going when you're ready to get out on the road.
Do you have any cool trips planned to take your Bronco on?

Hi Claire, Thank you for the detailed response, it was very helpful. Thanks for pointing out the correct diode kit to use, along with the reminder I needed to add a line charge kit too. Once I get all the correct equipment ordered and installed, my family and I are planning on doing some camping/ off-roading in the Colorado mountains. Thanks again! Tom
