  • Recovery Board Mount Options For The Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack Crossbars
  • The Rhino-Rack Recovery Track Flat Carrier # RR43235 is designed to connect to the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars # RR42114BF using the track rack system, which the Rhino-Rack Vortex SG do not have. Instead, you'll have to mount the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Rack # RR42114BF to your Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack for Rain Gutters - Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRSG59, which you then can mount the Rhino-Rack Recovery Track Flat Carrier # RR43235.

  • Determining If Swagman Current Bike Rack S64678 Fits 2018 Jeep JK W/ 37 Spare Tire
  • The Swagman Current Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes part # S64678 is a great rack and determining if it will fit your application is a tough one. There are two variables to the equation with your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited. While that is a large tire there is a chance it will still work. The first thing to consider is the hitch type and the tire width. Some hitches for the JKU have pin holes that stick further out from under the bumper than others do. There can be as much as 3.5"...

  • Yes, you will be able to use the B&W Continuum Weight Distribution System # BW78FR with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT78MR on your 2018 Jeep Wrangler. When we installed the receiver on your model year Jeep we found the hitch pin hole to be roughly 6" in front of the rear edge of the spare tire. The shank on the B&W is 11-3/8" from the hitch pin center to the ball mount center. This will place the ball center roughly 5-3/8" behind the spare tire which is going to be...

  • 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,...

  • Will Roadmaster Base Plates Work With Aftermarket Bumper On 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited
  • I do have an option for you but the base plate kit options for a 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited aren't really designed for aftermarket bumpers so we would not be able to confirm fit. That said, if the bumper has d-ring attachments you can use the Roadmaster D-Ring Adapter part # RM-035-1 or part # RM-035 which will work great with a Roadmaster tow bar like the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain Tow Bar part # RM-676 which is what I recommend.

  • Does Pollak Trailer Connector Work With Electric Brake Controller on 2018 Jeep Wrangler?
  • The Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975-11933 will absolutely work with a brake controller. This will replace the 7-way on your 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited with factory tow package. As for a brake controller itself, I strongly recommend the Prodigy P3 # 90195; it is the most popular model we carry due to its effectiveness and ease of use. It will activate your trailer's brakes immediately in proportion to your Jeep's brakes and offers three different boost levels...

  • Does Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch 31432 Fit A 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon W/ Steel Bumper
  • As long as your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon has the standard steel bumper and not the Hard Rock Edition bumper then the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 31432 is the correct hitch for you. If your bumper is the Hard Rock Edition Bumper then you will need to go with the Curt # C31433 instead. I included a video of the # 31432 being installed and a link to the written instructions of the # C31433 for you to take a look at.

  • Since we know your Polar Edition 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited uses the standard front bumper the Draw Tite front hitch part # 65069 or the Curt part # 31432 would fit and work well. The larger wheel diameter would not be an issue at all.

  • Can 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited Tailgate Swing Open with Slide-Out Cargo Carrier Installed
  • The Lets Go Aero Slide-Out Cargo Carrier # H01472 measures 29 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the nearest art of the carrier when it is slid all the way out. This will allow you to open the rear tail gate of your 2018 Jeep Wrangler a decent amount but is probably not enough for it to swing all the way open.
