- Recommended Trailer Wiring and Hitch for 2007 Jeep Commander Sport Rocky Mountain Edition
- The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118408 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2007 Jeep Commander Sport Rocky Mountain Edition. There is not a fit exclusion with this particular trim package. The harness will work perfectly.

I have attached an installation video that you can use for reference.

- 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...

- I have a hitch solution I can provide for you, but the Curt hitch part # 13251 that you referenced would not fit your 2006 Jeep Commander. Instead you would want the Curt hitch part # 13414. This hitch has been confirmed to fit your Commander and would work well.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

- For a 2008 Jeep Commander that did not come with a factory installed 7-Way trailer connector, you will need a few items to install a trailer brake controller, but there isn't a plug in adapter available for your vehicle. First, if your Commander does not already have a 4-Way, you will start by installing one using # 118408. I have included a video showing a typical installation for you.
Then you would need a 4 and 7-Way installation kit # ETBC7. This will provide the 7-Way and the wiring...

- Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75338 is listed as a fit for all styles of the 2008 Jeep Commander so that would include the Rocky Mountain Edition.

-Thule SnowPack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking # TH7326.
This ski/snowboard carrier is capable of carrying 6 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards, and measures 34-1/4" long x 3-1/2" tall x 2-1/2" wide.

- I do more than likely have the correct trailer hub/drum that you need however, the 15637 number that you provided is just a casting number and this does not give us any information that is needed to determine a replacement. I spoke with Dexter to confirm this. FYI, Titan bought Dico and Dexter bought Titan.
Therefore, in order to determine the correct replacement for your trailer you will first need count the number of lug studs. Then once this is done you can measure the contact surface...
view full answer... - 7-Way and Brake Controller Recommendation for 2007 Jeep Commander Sport
- I have a really great and easy solution to replace your 7-way and install a brake controller. First to replace the 7-way all you need is the part # HM42190 which will easily replace the smashed one you have now.
The easiest to install brake controller that also works really well is the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180. Basically this just plugs into an active 7-way and once you sync it to your phone it's ready to go. This brake controller is proportional which means it senses the amount...
view full answer... - Wire Harness Recommendation For 2006 Jeep Commander
- For a 2006 Jeep Commander with no 7-way connector, I recommend the Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, part # 118408. This harness easily connects to the vehicle wiring and requires no cutting or splicing into the wires. I have attached a link to an installation video for this harness you can check out.
When working with electrical connectors I recommend using dielectric grease like part # 11755. This keeps dirt and moisture out of the electrical connections and helps prevent corrosion.

- For your 2010 Jeep Commander I recommend the Draw tite class 3 hitch # 75338 . This has a 2" receiver and is rated for towing up to 5,000 lbs. The tongue weight capacity is 750 lbs, making the strongest hitch available for your vehicle. Installation will be very easy.

view full answer... - Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2010 Jeep Commander with 3.7 liter
- The best way to pick out a transmission cooler is to go with the largest one that fits in front of the radiator of the vehicle. The most popular option we have is the part # D13503 which measures 11" Wide x 8-3/4" tall x 7/8" deep.
We actually installed this cooler on a 2006 Commander similar to your 2010 and found that it fit and worked well. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

- I have a solution for you.
First, though, there is not a custom-fit Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform available for the 2008 Jeep XK Commander. So, you will need to use a roof rack and a universal-fit Pioneer Platform.
For the roof rack system, if you do not have rails, then I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, part # RRVA126B-2. These are aero-style crossbars, making them perfectly compatible with a universal Pioneer. These bars will connect to your naked roof with the RCH Legs,...

- A favorite wiring kit here at etrailer is the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. Once you install it you simply just connect the coiled wire from the 6-Way on your 2007 Jeep Commander to the 7-Way on your motorhome (assuming that's what your motorhome has) and you are good to go!
One of the best features about this kit is that if you use a supplemental braking system that draws power from the battery of your Commander, like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR,...

- We have hitches for your 2007 Jeep Commander that are rated for up to 750 lbs of tongue weight like the Draw Tite hitch part # 75338 which would fit and be a great option. I looked up the capacity of your vehicle and it should have a 7,400 lb trailer towing capacity with 740 lbs tongue weight so you'd be good for a 400 lb wheelchair and carrier.
We have the Flint Hill Goods 30" x 50" Wheelchair Carrier w/ 48" Ramp - 2" Hitch # FHG77ZR which would work well too. This has a 500 lb carrying...
