To flat tow your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited you'll need a tow bar, base plate, tow bar wiring kit, braking system, and safety cables. I have the following recommendations listed for you below:
Tow Bar: Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-522. This tow bar features a non-binding design and large hookup radius to make connecting and disconnecting on any terrain a breeze.
Base Plate: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521453-5. These direct-connect base plates make connecting and disconnecting fast and simple. The removable arms provide a clean look when not in use.
Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. This diode kit allows you to use your Jeep Wrangler Unlimited's tail lights and wiring system while preventing feedback from your RV. The included 7-wire to 6-wire Flexo-Coil electrical cord is resitant to water, oil, chemicals, and has silicone-injected plugs to prevent corrosion.
If you have the ParkSense feature on your Jeep you will instead need the Roadmaster Wiring Kit with Smart Diodes for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RM47ZR and the Roadmaster 7-Wire to 6-Wire Straight Cord Kit - 6-1/2' Long
Item # RM-98146-7.
Braking System: Brake Buddy Stealth Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # HM39530. This system offers fully proportional braking with a system that never has to be removed, replaced, or reset. The actuator installs out of sight and remains virtually invisible when your car isn't being towed. The controller also doubles as a trailer brake controller and included charge line kit will prevent you from arriving at your destination with a dead battery.
Safety Cables: RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables - 6,000lbs # RM-643. The coiled design of these cables helps prevent them from dragging on the ground and being damaged.
You may also need a high/low adapter to keep your tow bar level while towing your Jeep. I've attached our help guide article to assist you in measuring to find the correct adapter for your needs.
