Expert Answers about Jeep Wrangler


  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2008 Jeep Wrangler X
  • The hitch and wiring I recommend for your 2008 Jeep Wrangler X are the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e98856 and the Tekonsha T-One Wiring Kit # 118416. This trailer hitch has a matte black finish that looks more rugged and protects the hitch better than the classic glossy finish that the other hitches have to offer. This also has a longer receiver tube which helps to place accessories further back past your spare tire. The T-One wiring is simply the best and most reliable that we have to offer...

  • Hitch That Fits 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with Standard Bumper
  • Sometimes we have returned items that are still in good working order (most of the time never used) that we can sell as a "used item". The etrailer hitch part # 13432 does fit your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a standard bumper and if you order it with the add to cart button, you'll get a new hitch. If you hit the "1 used item available" link you'll see an option to order the used item we have if available. I attached an install video for this hitch on a similar 2016 Jeep Wrangler.

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for 2013 Jeep Wrangler
  • The best overall value brake controller is by far the BRAKE-EVN part # TK63VR which is the most advanced proportional brake controller in the lower price point and is also very reliable so it is what I recommend for your 2013 Jeep Wrangler if you were wanting a traditional style controller. Or if you wanted the absolute easiest to install option the Curt Echo # C51180 is the way to go as it basically just plugs into an active 7-way and once synced wirelessly to your smart phone is ready...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2020 Jeep Wrangler
  • In order to flat tow your new 2020 Jeep Wrangler behind your RV you will need a base plate kit, a tow bar, safety cables, a lighting solution, and a supplemental braking system. I will list out my specific recommendations below and go into a bit more detail on each of the components thereafter. Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect # RM-521453-5 Tow Bar - Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain # RM-676 (safety cables are included) Lighting Solution - Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode...

  • Best Parts to Use to Flat Tow 2020 Jeep Wrangler JL
  • The first thing you need to flat tow your 2020 Jeep Wrangler JL is a base plate kit like the Roadmaster Direct Connect kit part # RM-521453-5 which I recommend for you. This kit is the easiest to connect and disconnect due to how it connects to the tow bar. I attached a picture that shows it installed as well as an install video for you to check out. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your...

  • Tow Bar and Accessories for Flat Towing a 2004 Jeep Wrangler Behind Motorhome
  • You can use a tow bar like the Tow Ready # 63180 to tow your 2004 Wrangler, but keep in mind, the tow bar is NOT rated for speeds above 45 mph, so I'd recommend a different setup. In order to run at highway speeds, I recommend using a tow bar like the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar, part # RM-520 and base plate kit # RM-521424-4 which is compatible with OEM double tube bumpers. You will also need a set of safety cables like # RM-643. The Wrangler will also need to be wired for towing. There...

  • Recommended Vehicle Guard for 2017 Jeep Wrangler Being Towed Behind RV
  • To protect your 2017 Jeep Wrangler while it's being flat towed behind an RV I recommend taking a look at the Roadmaster Tow Defender # RM-4750. This heavy-duty nylon screen will do a great job of deflecting rocks, gravel, and road debris down and away from the Jeep. It fits Blue Ox tow bars with Blue Ox brackets, Demco tow bars with Demco brackets, and Roadmaster motorhome-mounted tow bars. I have attached a short video demonstration that you can also check out. Another option that will...

  • Recommended Base Plate Kit for 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited to Use with ReadyBrute Elite Tow Bar
  • We do have a large selection of custom base plate kits available for your 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. If you have the standard factory bumper on the Jeep without any winches or guards, I recommend going with the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1126. This heavy-duty unit features hidden reinforcements that will allow for a clean look when you aren't towing the vehicle. Unlike the Roadmaster options that are also available for the Jeep, this kit can be adapted with the Blue Ox Adapter Brackets...

  • Recommended Flat Tow Wiring Kit for Lights on 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport
  • We certainly have what you need to wire your Jeep so that it accepts the tail lights from the RV when being flat towed but there isn't a plug-and-play option available for your 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport. What I recommend using is the Roadmaster Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267, which includes everything needed to set up the lights on the Wrangler. It will wire into the tail light circuits of the Jeep and uses diodes to prevent any electrical feedback. The included 6-Way connector will...

  • Connecting 4-Way Vehicle Connector to 7-Way on Trailer Equipped with Battery But No Brakes
  • If your trailer isn't equipped with electric brakes then the blue brake output wire can simply be capped off as its not needed. Since you have a 4-Way flat connector on the tow vehicle you can use the Tow Ready # 30717. This will plug right into the existing 4-Way to provide a 7-Way at the other end to connect with the 7-Way on the trailer. Since the camper does have an auxiliary battery that needs to receive a maintenance charge you will have to run the black 12V wire coming from the...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2013 Jeep Wrangler
  • For a base plate kit that fits your 2013 Jeep Wrangler I would recommend the Blue Ox part # BX1126 which is the easiest to connect and disconnect from. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. One of the most popular compatible tow bars is the Blue Ox Avail # BX7420 which comes with safety cables. The coiled design helps keep the cables off of the ground. For lighting you can use...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution and Electric Jack for an Airstream Basecamp 16
  • I highly suggest the etrailer.com Electric Jack # EJ-3520-BBX for the Airstream Basecamp 16. This has a pretty standard A-Frame mounting plate that will have no issue fitting the front of the trailer. It is also rated up to 3,500 pounds of lifting capacity and will be ideal for this set up. As to the weight distribution, the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System # FA92-00-0600 will have a maximum tongue weight of 600 pounds and a minimum tongue weight of 250 pounds. This will put you right...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2021 Jeep Wrangler with Spare Tire and Backup Camera
  • I believe you're asking about a bike rack since all of the trailer hitches that fit your 2021 Jeep Wrangler won't interfere with either the spare tire or backup camera. If you don't already have a hitch then I recommend the etrailer # e98856 because it has a longer receiver tube and a matte black finish so it will help give you extra clearance while looking stylish in the process. When we installed this trailer hitch on a 2020 Wrangler with the standard factory tire we found from the center...

  • Rhino Rack Roof Rack that Fits 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • If you'd be willing to drill into the hardtop of your Wrangler Unlimited there's no reason you couldn't install the Rhino Rack roof rack for camper shells part # Y01-120B. The tracks are 63 inches long so you'd want to make sure you'd have space for them on your roof. We also have Rhino Rack roof racks that fit your 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with the part numbers # RRVA150B-2, # RRRLT600, # RRRJKB2, # RRQMFK06 which attaches to the rain gutters and doesn't require modification of the...

  • What Portion of the Cargo Area of a Jeep Does the Bestop Cargo Mat B5150701 Cover
  • I attached a picture that shows what portion of the rear cargo area of your Jeep the Cargo Mat part # B5150701 that you referenced would cover. It will back right up to the back of the rear seat. If the seat was removed the mat wouldn't cover where the rear seat was.

  • How To Install Tekonsha Primus IQ TK90160 In 2013 Jeep Wranger
  • Since your 2013 Jeep Wrangler does not have a factory trailer brake controller port you will need to hardwire the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 3 Axles # TK90160. If your Jeep has the factory tow package you should have a coiled up light green or blue brake output wire which should be near the emergency brake pedal. You will need the # 5506 which will run from the battery, to the included circuit breaker, to the passenger compartment of your Jeep to provide the ground...

I have attached a list of these for you below. etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit part # e98949 etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar part # e34ZR Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit part # RM-15267 Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect part # RM-766 Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part...

  • Can Universal 5th Wheel Rails and Brackets Be Used On a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500
  • The Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit part # RP30035 is not a good option for a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 because of the frame design and leaf spring setup but I do have options for you that are, the Reese Semi-Custom Base Rail and Installation Kit part # RP30035-023 if you don't have overload springs or part # RP30035-186 if you do have overload springs and the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit part # RP50140-58. The Reese Quick-Install is a no drill kit so that is what...

  • Good news, I can help you get all the items you need to flat tow your 2010 Jeep behind your Motorhome.
