I reached out to Smittybilt and they informed me the tabs on your bumper can be used for flat towing your 2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ. To do this you will simply add the D-Ring Adapter # RM65FR to the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-676. Do note the tow bar needs to stay within 3" of level from your receiver to the front of your Jeep. Here is a list of High-Low adapters you may need if your connection points are not within 3" of each other.
4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-4
6" Rise/Drop # RM-048-6
8" Rise/Drop # RM-048-8
10-1/4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-10
The Roadmaster Accessory Kit # RM-9284-2 contains the covers, wiring locks and lube you will want to use with the tow bars. And you can finally add the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39524 to help protect the brakes on your tow vehicle as well as remain legal everywhere you tow your Jeep.
