All Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2014 Jeep Cherokee & Can They be Self-Installed
Question:
I have a 2014 jeep Cherokee which I need to set up to tow behind an RV on all four wheels. If I buy the parts for my trailer is it feasible for me to self install? Do I need to have a specialist install these items?

Expert Reply:
Many people install complete flat towing set ups themselves, so yes, self-installation is definitely feasible. I can't comment if you, specifically. need a specialist for install, so you'll need to read through the directions of each individual part to see if it's something you feel like you'd be able to do.
