To flat tow your 2015 Jeep Wrangler you'll need the following confirmed fit items:

Tow Bar: The Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 8K Item # RM-576. This Tow bar comes with built in safety cables that will work with the Roadmaster baseplate I recommended.

Tow Bar Wiring: Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Wire to 6-Wire Straight Cord
Item # RM-152-98146-7

Baseplates: The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # RM-521448-5.

Braking System: Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System Item # HM39494. This will connect directly to your towed vehicle's battery so you'll want to also use the BrakeBuddy Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Kit
Item # BB54FR as it will charge your battery while you drive to prevent your battery from dying.
