The tow bar comes with the safety cables so you will not need any additional cables. Next you will need a lighting solution. I recommend the 4-diode kit # RM-152. Once installed...

• Parts Needed and Procedures for Flat Towing 2000 Jeep Wrangler
• Clevis rings are meant for recovering the vehicle when it is stuck, not for flat towing the vehicle. The safest way to flat tow the vehicle is by using a base plate kit that attaches to the frame of the vehicle. For the OEM double-tube bumper, I recommend the Roadmaster EZ4 # RM-521424-4 base plate kit. For the U-channel bumper or single-tube bumper, use # 1420-1. The Tow Ready tow bar you referenced would limit you 45 mph, so something like the Roadmaster Tracker, part # RM-020 would...

• Can ST175/80-13 Load Range C Tires be Replaced with Load Range D
