Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude Plus
Question:
IS THERE A WAY TO FLAT TOW A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE PLUS WITH JEEP ADTIVE DRIVE 1
asked by: ANGEL C
Expert Reply:
The online owner's manual for the 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude Plus indicates on pages 384 through 391 the versions that can be safely flat towed with all wheels on the ground as well as the specific procedure to make them ready for this process.
Only 4x4 versions with the 2-speed power transfer unit can be flat towed. Front wheel drive (FWD) models cannot be flat towed nor can models with the 1-speed power transfer unit. I recommend checking your printed manual or speaking with the dealership to confirm what your specific vehicle can and cannot do. Damage can result if a non-towable vehicle is flat towed.
The items needed to flat tow this vehicle (assuming it can towed) include base plates, a tow bar, safety cables, a wiring/lighting kit, a braking system and a high/low hitch adapter. Each of these items is detailed in the linked article.
If your Latitude Plus has a 2-speed transfer case and an aluminum bumper but does NOT have tow hooks you can use Blue Ox base plate # BX1144 along with their Alpha tow bar # BX7380 which includes safety cables, the Patriot braking system # BLU37TR and magnetic lights like # TL21RK. The second article included will help you select the right high/low adapter.
