  • Availability of Adapter For Connecting 6-Way Round on Trailer to 4-Way Flat on Tow Vehicle
  • I would recommend to use the Mighty Cord 4-Way to 6-Way Adapter, part # A10-6034VP. If you only want to use the basic lighting functions provided by the 4-Way (left/right turn, brake, and running lights) then all you will need to do is plug the 4-Way end of the # A10-6034VP adapter, into the vehicle 4-Way.

  • Comparin EZ4 and EZ5 Base Plate Kit for Flat Towing 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  • We have two different style of Roadmaster base plate kits that fit your 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. The EZ5 part # RM-521446-5 which does not require the use of the included crossbar of a tow bar, or the EZ4 part # RM-521446-4 which does.

  • Why Is there Time Difference for Install of Curt and etrailer Hitch on 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee
  • The install time ratings are not determined by us and are instead determined by the hitch manufacturers. So with that in mind the different companies don't always end up estimating the same amount of install time, even when their hitch designs are so similar they almost seem identical. So that is why the Curt hitch part # C13172 has a 40 minute install time and the etrailer # e73ZR has an hour twenty minute install time. Based on capacities and the Curt being made in the USA that's the...

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness For A 1995 Jeep Cherokee XJ
  • Though we do have hardwire options available for your 1995 Jeep Cherokee XJ, there are no plug and play options currently available, unfortunately. If you decide to proceed with a hardwire kit, I highly recommend the Tekonsha # 119178KIT. This is a pretty quick and easy install and includes quick connectors, so no cutting will be needed. It's not plug and play, but it also isn't overly complicated either.
