Tow bar and Braking Assembly
Recently purchased 2020 Thor Fourwinds 33' Class C RV. Want to tow our Ford Ranger, and looking for information on most effective tow bar and braking assembly
Forum Discussion
I use a Blue OX tow bar because that's the base plate that fit my car at the time.
A ran a separate charge line to keep the toad battery charged while the ignition is 'ON' while towing.
I skipped the harness for the lighting and drilled two holes in each tail light housing installing an 1157 bulb in each. That keeps me legal for running rear lights, brake lights and directional. If I need more lighting in fog or night time driving, I just put the parking lights on in the toad because the charge line will be doing its job keeping the battery full. I ran those 1157 wires along with the charge wire to the rv 7 way plug.
I use a Brake Buddy 2 on the floor on the toad, that way I swap it to my next toad.
