  • Compatibility of Roadmaster RM-035-1 D-Ring Adapters with Nighthawk Tow Bar
  • The Roadmaster # RM-035-1 D-ring adapters are indeed compatible with a Roadmaster Nighthawk tow bar. However, because you aren't using traditional base plates, you might have difficulty finding a good spot to attach the safety cables. In this situation, Roadmaster recommends using extensions like # RM-910648-20. You'd want to wrap the extension around the frame members just behind the bumper then attach to the safety cables. If you decide to use the tow bar for a different vehicle,...

  • Recommended Roof Rack For Installing Roof Tent On 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • The best and easiest way to install a roof rack is via the gutter system on your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with hard top.

For this, I recommend going with the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars Silver - 60" # TH711500 (or # TH711520 for Black) along with Gutter Feet # TH93ZR. The dynamic weight capacity is 175lbs...

  • Can I Install a Tekonsha Primus IQ Brake Controler on 2018 Jeep JKU
  • Yes. The Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160 is compatible with your 2018 Jeep JKU, but there are no available adapters to make it an easy plug and play installation so you will need to hard wire it into your vehicle. I've linked the installation of a similar Tekonsha brake controller for you to use as a guide during installation, since the process will be identical. You will use some of the wiring that you've run when installing your 4/7 way connector during this process, but you'll also need...

  • Will Bulldog Front Bumper BDW21022 Fit 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with Roadmaster Base Plate
  • Bulldog Winch Front Bumper # BDW21022 mounts in place of the stock bumper on a 2018 Jeep Wrangler and it doesn't hang down any further to interfere with the base plates on the vehicle so it will work with the Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-521448-4 that you mentioned. Since this base plate uses a crossbar you will be able to still use your Roadmaster Guardian # RM-4000.

  • Removing Roadmaster Invisibrake Supplemental Braking From One Vehicle to Install on Another
  • Because you are removing the Roadmaster Invisibrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700 from your 2004 Jeep Wrangler, you will need to seal up the vacuum line on your 2004 Wrangler.

You can leave the T-connector and then add a bolt and hose clamp to seal the hose or you can remove the T-connector and use a coupler and two hose clamps to seal the hose. The latter is my recommendation for a cleaner fix and you can use the check valve already...
