  • Tow Bar Base Plates for 1998 Jeep Wrangler
  • I believe you are referring to the base plates. The base plates are vehicle-specific, and provide the mounting point on the vehicle for the tow bar. For the 1998 Jeep Wrangler, you would need part # RM-521424-4 if you have the Rubicon, Unlimited, or Double Tube bumper. If your Wrangler has the U-Channel bumper, you would use part # 1417-1.

  • Will 7-Way to 5-Way Adapter Part AT75TB Work with 4-Way Connectors as Well
  • Yes, the A75TB, 7-Way to 5-Way adapter will also work with 4-Way connectors. It will leave the 5th pin exposed which can cause corrosion if you will be towing in the rain. Part # 37385 is another option. It has both a 5-Way and a 4-Way with covers to protect them from corrosion.

  • Will Hopkins Towed Vehicle Wiring Work With Hopkins 4-Flat on Jeep Wrangler
  • Yep, your Jeep Wrangler can absolutely use both the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # HM42635 and Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # HM56200. The two will plug in-line with each other so you'd install the # HM42635 first followed by the # HM56200.

  • Can the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit for 2002 Jeep Wrangler Be Purchased Without Arms
  • The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-521424-5 which is for a 2002 Jeep Wrangler is a complete kit. It's not offered without the removable arms. The arms are actually not all the same so you'll need to make sure you use the set that came with the base plate kit only. This isn't something we do but rather all that's offered from the manufacturer. If you're looking for a compatible tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar part # RM-522...

  • Why Is There Only One Hitch Pin Hole on Draw-Tite Front Hitch for 2011 Jeep Wrangler
  • There was a design change of all Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receivers which includes the Draw-Tite Front Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65069 for a 2011 Jeep Wrangler to get rid of the extra pin hole on the receiver tube used for a stabilizing pin. The new hithes all come with just one standard 5/8" diameter hitch pin hole. Therefore, it sounds like you just have the newest model available and there are no issues.

  • Will The Yakima HandRoll Roof Rack Fit On 2" Wide Crossbars?
  • The Yakima HandRoll Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # Y04082 are designed to fit onto Yakima JetStream Crossbars which are 3-1/8" wide so since your crossbars are 2" wide, these'll work just fine.

  • How to Flat Tow a 2002 Jeep Wrangler with Double Tube Front Bumper
  • For your 2002 Jeep Wrangler with a double tube front bumper you want the Demco Base Plate kit part # DM9517046. This will work great with the Demco Commander tow bar # DM9511012. For lighting you can use the bulb and socket kit, # RM-155, and not have to worry about cutting and splicing into the vehicle wiring. For a 7-way to 4-way umbilical you will also need the # 787196. And finally, most states now require supplemental braking in the vehicle being flat towed. The easiest system...

  • DeeZee Nerf Bar Recommendation for a 1989 Jeep Wrangler with Lift
  • The DeeZee Nerf Bars part # DZ371401 that you referenced mount to the factory body mounts of your 1989 Jeep Wrangler. The brackets that attach the body of your Jeep to the frame are the brackets that are used. To see about where they would sit in relation to your door frame you would want to measure from the body mount brackets on your jeep to the bottom of your door frame. This bar set should work well with your lift kits as well.

  • Recommended Parts For Flat Towing 2021 Jeep Wrangler JL Behind Motorhome
  • Assuming your Wrangler has the factory plastic or steel front bumper, I'd recommend the Roadmaster # RM-521453-5 base plate, and the # RM-522 Falcon All-Terrain tow bar. An all terrain tow bar won't bind up when you try to hook up on uneven ground and will self center as you drive off, so you won't need to have the vehicle perfectly positioned behind the tow vehicle when you hook up. You'll also need a set of safety cables like # RM-643. For the electrical connections for the taillights,...

  • Does the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT Need a Hitch Extender for a 2021 Jeep Wrangler?
  • The question of whether you need a hitch extension to use the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT # TH83JV depends on what hitch you have installed on your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara 4XE as well as the width of your spare tire. If you have a hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e98856, the length from the center of the hitch pinhole to the end of the spare tire will be about 8 inches. With that length, you will need a hitch adapter...

  • We can get your trailer set up with the correct Timbren Axle-Less system, and the exact one you need is the following: - Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - 4" Lift Spindle - 3,500 lbs # ASR35HDS05 You will need to go with a hub and drum with electric brakes with this system, the reason being there isn't a hub and rotor with disc brakes that has the compatible bearing and seal combo to go with these Timbrens.

  • Which Base Plate Kit For 2003 Jeep Wrangler is Compatible With Curt Tow Bar?
  • I may have an option for you, but the Roadmaster Base Plate Kit # RM-521424-5 is not compatible with any Curt tow bars and there are no adapters to make the connection. The Roadmaster baseplate kits use a different design of attachment that is quite a bit different than the Curt tow bars. If the Curt tow bar you have is the Curt Rambler # C26FR you will be able to use Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Fixed Arms # BX1120 which is confirmed to fit your 2003 Jeep Wrangler. If the Curt tow bar you...

  • Will the hullavator work with Rhino-Rack Vortex SG2 for my 2017 Jeep Wrangler Sport?
  • I do have a solution for you since the Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack # RRSG60 for your 2017 Jeep Wrangler incorporates the feet into the end of the crossbars so you do not have enough overhang for the Hullavator. To use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist # TH898 your roof rails must extend out approximately 4-8" past the foot of your roof rack. As your Wrangler has very straight sides you will be looking closer to the 4" measurement. I recommend using the Thule WingBar...
