  • Roof Rack For 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee That Is Easy To Install And Is Compatible With Tandem Kayak
  • The Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack # RRRVP27, which is confirmed to fit your 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, has a weight capacity of 149lbs. You will want to check your owner's manual to verify your roof's weight capacity, but my research tells me that your roof has a 150lb weight limit so you should have no issue mounting a kayak that weighs 80lbs. This roof rack is very easy to install or remove; once the legs are installed, there is just one bolt on each side of the crossbar to secure it to the...

  • How To Upgrade From 4.80-8 Tires To Larger Size On EZ Loader Boat Trailer
  • I do have an option for you but we recommend 3-4" from the top of the tire to the bottom of the fender and at least 1" from the inside of the tire to the outside of the frame. It seems like you are already under the recommend fender to tire clearance so the only option for a larger size would first require lifting the trailer. This would require more details on the axle type to recommend but the most universal option is the Lippert Components Standard Axle Lift Kit part # LC425750. This...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2019 Jeep Wrangler
  • For your 2019 Jeep Wrangler the base plate kit you'll need is the Roadmaster Direct Connect part # RM-521453-5 which is an easier to use option custom fit for your Jeep. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar is the Falcon All Terain, # RM-522. This has non-binding arms which makes the setup very easy to connect/disconnect. For lighting/safety...

  • Recommended 2-Bike Rack for Flat-Towed 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • The rear door mounted spare tire is obviously an issue for using a bike rack on a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, especially if you have aftermarket tires. Therefore, bike rack options are limited and I don't recommend using an extender when the vehicle is flat-towed. The Yakima RidgeBack Bike Rack for 2 Bikes part # Y02457 is what I suggest. It should clear the rear spare tire no problem, it can be folded so you can open the tailgate, and it can be used on a flat-towed vehicle. I have used...

  • Does Installing Brake Controller in 2020 Jeep Cherokee Plus Require Programming at Dealer
  • The Tekonsha Voyager part # 39510 does not require programming to install in your 2020 Jeep Cherokee Latitiude Plus. You'd just need to use the install harness part # 3014-P which plugs in under the dash and you'd be set.

  • Which Rhino Rack Gutter Foot Fits 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

  • Brake Controller 12V Input Switch on 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL
  • The Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 only needs to see a 12V power coming from switch activation. It has an internal inertia-based sensor that will sense the braking effort and relay that to the trailer. The Roadmaster Stop Light Switch # RM-751490 is an option that can be used due to the location of the brake switch wiring on your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL. It also won't require you to tap into the hard to reach circuit but instead you will run one wire a 12V positive and the 2nd wire to the...

  • 3-Bike Trunk Rack Recommendation for 2019 Jeep Compass
  • We have great three bike trunk racks that fit your 2018 Jeep Compass but I checked with Thule and the Passage 3 you referenced is not listed as a fit for your vehicle. Instead the Yakima Halfback part # Y02633 is a really great option is a fit. It's loaded with same features as the Passage but is considered to be a nicer rack due to its wider lower contact pad and cushioned frame cradles. If you plan to carry any bikes that don't have a horizontal top tube a frame adapter like part #...

  • Best Trailer Brake Controller For a 2021 Jeep Gladiator With Factory Tow Package
  • Personally I feel the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller # RED63RR is the best option for your 2021 Jeep Gladiator. This uses a small dash mounted control knob rather than the large box you get with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. I do like how easy the P3 is to read and can come in very handy when troubleshooting issues but with the small cab of the Gladiator the Redarc I feel is the best choice. The Redarc also allows you to switch from a proportional braking for on-road use to a...

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for 2019 Jeep Wrangler
  • Custom fit strap on mirrors like the Rampage # RA8605 only fit up through the 2018 models. For your 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited you need a universal towing mirror like the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors # KS3891-2. These clip on and use ratcheting straps to tighten over your factory mirrors. They use rubber pads to protect your factory mirror and manual adjustment so you can set them where you need them. The # KS3891-2 are convex but flat glass # KS69ZR is available if you would prefer it.

  • Are Towing Mirrors Required When Towing Trailer W/ 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee In Washington State?
  • Towing mirrors are not necessarily required on your 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee to tow a trailer in Washington State. The only requirement is that your vehicle has mirrors on both sides and that you can see 200' back. Since mentioned that you can see the required 200' back you are all good and do not have anything to worry about. If you would rather add towing mirrors so you are no doubt good then I recommend the K-Source Universal Dual Lens Towing Mirrors # KS3990 which attach to your factory...

  • Flat Towing a 2014 Jeep Wrangler With Bumper Tabs Behind Class C Motorhome
  • The first thing is to ensure that the bumper you have on your 2014 Jeep Wrangler is rated for towing. Not all are so contact the bumper manufacturer and ensure that you are safe to flat tow by the bumper tabs. The tab mounts available show they fit a 7/8" or 1" diameter hole so double check your measurement as well before ordering. These Bar Adapeters # RM-035-1 will replace the ends on the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain Tow Bar # RM-522. These bars are designed for simple connection and...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  • The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98901. This hitch is a direct bolt-on fit with no cutting or drilling required. It installs under the rear bumper. There are no options which install behind the cutout unfortunately. Then for the wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118727 which does not require any splicing and provides a 4-way flat connector.

  • Extended Ball Mount For Jeep Wrangler To Clear Oversized Spare Tire
  • For your 2013 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited I recommend the Hidden Hitch Ball Mount # 80232. This ball mount has a length of 15-3/4"(400mm) from center of hitch pin hole to center of ball hole. That will give you an additional 3-15/16"(100mm) over your current ball mount.

  • Yes, the cargo mats from a 2018 and 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee are the same size. The WeatherTech mat part # WT40469 that you mentioned fits both year vehicles. It was also carried over to the 2020 models as well. I attached a review video for this mat for you to check out as well.

So what you'll need to do is check out the picture I attached that has all of the post dimensions of the pad to compare to yours to see if it would fit.

  • How To Set a 2019 Jeep Cherokee Up for Flat-Towing
  • The owner's manual is a great resource to use for setting a vehicle up for flat towing as it will usually list all the steps that you need to follow in order to do so. The correct steps for your 2019 Jeep Cherokee are listed on page 387 so this is where I recommend you look. I have attached them for you below as well. 1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop on level ground, and shift the transmission to PARK. 2. Turn the engine OFF. 3. Turn the ignition to the ON/RUN mode, but do not start...
