There are 2 Class III hitch options that are a fit for the 2005 Jeep Wrangler TJ Unlimited, Curt round tube Class III hitch part # 13430 or the Draw-Tite Round Tube Class III hitch part # 75193. They both fit exactly the same and have the same capacities.

I recommend Curt Class III Round Tube Receiver Hitch part # 13430 which is one of the options with the high weight capacity and is assembled in the USA. I have attached a video for your reference.

If you need wiring and the TJ has a factory 7-way it can be replaced with part # HM42190. If your TJ does not have a factory 7-Way, you will need 4-way wiring part # 118409. If you need a 7-way and the Jeep does not have one originally from the factory, you will need an adapter part # 37185 to upgrade the 4-way wiring to a 7-way plug.

Brake systems are not dependent on the hub bolt pattern. So you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit #AKEBRK-7-SA for 12 inch hub/drums or #AKEBRK-35-SA for 10 inch hub/drums. Then use #10-1-1 wire sold by the foot for your brake magnet wiring.…

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…
