Expert Answers about Jeep Cherokee


  • Are There Any Replacement Roof Vents Available for the Discontinued Dometic Americana Refrigerator?
  • The Dometic Americana DM2652 you mention has actually been discontinued along with it's replacement parts. Since I don't have a direct replacement vent for you, you're going to have to take some quick measurements and see if any of the following will work. If the cutout needing the vent measures 23-3/4" long and 6-3/4" wide, then the RV Refrigerator Roof Vent Cap and Base # DMC97FR for black or # DMC37FR for white will work great. If not, you might consider reaching out to Dometic directly...

  • Is Stop Light Switch Needed for Blue Ox Patriot Braking System on 2017 Jeep Cherokee
  • According to Blue Ox, because the Patriot # BLU37TR is self contained, a separate connection to the brake stop lamp switch isn't necessary, as opposed to the Roadmaster # RM-9400 which would need a stop lamp switch installed.

  • Trailer Brake Controller Installation in 2016 Cherokee Trailhawk with Factory Tow Package
  • If your Jeep Cherokee came from the factory with a 7-way trailer socket at the rear bumper then there will be a brake controller connection port under the dash. In this case you can plug in a controller like the Prodigy P3 # 90195 or P2 # 90885 simply by using the wiring adapter # 3014-P. If not you can still hardwire the controller using our brake controller install kit # ETBC7. The Jeep needs to have a 4-pole harness in place too; if you need one use part # 118605.

  • Items and Costs to Equip Diesel Pusher Motorhome to Flat Tow an Automobile
  • Safe and legal flat towing requires a few components: the tow bar, safety cables, base plates and a lighting/wiring kit for the toad, and a supplementary braking system to operate the toad's brakes. Each of these items is reviewed in detail in the linked article. Tow bars are not vehicle-specific but we do suggest using a tow bar and base plate from the same maker to avoid the need for adapters. Base plates are vehicle-specific so you'll need to confirm the year/make/model/version of the...

  • Flat Towed Bike Rack Recommendation for 2 e-Bikes and 2 Standard Bikes
  • I recommend checking out the Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # Y02443-2. This can hold up to 4 bikes weighing in at 50 lbs per bike. If you remove the batteries from your e-Bikes and they weigh at or under 50 lbs you're good to go!

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2021 Jeep Cherokee
  • The Roadmaster parts you've selected are a great choice to give you a high quality flat towing setup for your 2021 Jeep Cherokee, however there is one change I would make here. Since the Roadmaster Nighthawk # RM-676 comes with a 7 wire to 6 wire wiring harness included, I recommend using the # RM-152 instead of the # RM-154, which is better suited for a 4 way trailer connector. If your Fleetwood Fortis does not have a 7 way on the rear and instead has a 4 way, then the # RM-154 will work...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Towing Equipment for 2016 Jeep Cherokee
  • I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # C13172. This hitch features a concealed crossbar, so the only portion of the hitch that'll be visible from the rear is the receiver tube and the safety chain loops. If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'll need a few other items to complete your towing system. For a wiring harness, use # 118605, for a ball mount go with # D-28 and the # PC3 hitch pin. For a 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, use # 19260 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball. I've linked...

  • Using The RoadMaster InvisBrake Second Vehicle Kit To Install On New Vehicle
  • Thank you for you patience, I spoke to my tech guy at Roadmaster about the extra parts it says you need in the instructions. The 1/4 inch check valve it calls for is to plug the vacuum line on the original vehicle so you can swap the systems back and forth with out causing a vacuum leak. This part you will not need at all because you are not swapping vehicles. You will need the Replacement Cylinder for Roadmaster Brake Master and Even Brake Supplemental Braking System # RM-452109-10 and...

  • Is there a Kit to Convert from Air to Hydraulic Brakes on a Motorhome Towing a 2001 Jeep Cherokee

This kit will only work if you have the RoadMaster BrakeMaster for Motor Homes with Air Brakes, item # RM-9100.

  • Roadmaster Tow Bar & Demco Supplemental Braking System That Works With Hydraulic Brakes
  • Since your new motorhome does not have air brakes, the current MandG 2.0 braking system will not work with your new MH or the Demco AirForce One # SM99243. Since your new MH has hydraulic brakes, then you're going to need the Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251. Also, if your Jeep's existing vacuum pump is capable of providing the required vacuum for the boost, then you don't have to use Demco's vacuum pump. This is going to be a fresh installation, that...

  • Items Needed to Flat Tow 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Behind Motorhome
  • Since you already have your Alpha tow bar with safety cables # BX7380, you'll need only base plates, a braking system, a wiring kit. I recommend the Curt base plates # C46JR, which are a great match to your Alpha tow bar. For lighting I suggest an inexpensive and easy-to-install magnetic light kit like # TL21RK. These take only moments to install and require no cutting into the Jeep's wiring. For a braking system the way to go is the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR which is fully portable...
