How thick are the D-rings on your off-road bumper? If they are 1 inch thick you can use the part # RM-035-1 or if they are 3/4 inch thick you can use the part # RM-035 with a Roadmaster tow bar like the Falcon 2 part # RM-520 but if you have something different we would not have a solution. view full answer...
The braking pressure that the Invisi-Brake System # RM-8700 that you referenced comes from the factory set at is the most universal setting that works for most applications, 60 psi.
You will want to test your setup using the preset setting and compare the stopping power to how the RV stops without a vehicle behind it and adjust as necessary. view full answer...
Yes, I can give you the parts list you will need to flat tow your 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler with 2 doors and a plastic skid plate. I assume you have the standard 2” square hitch receiver on your coach with the standard RV-Style 7-pin electrical connection.
First you will need the Roadmaster # RM-521448-5 Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit designed to work with a factory standard bumper with no winches or guards.
Next you will want a Roadmaster # RM-522 Falcon All Terrain and Non-Binding tow... view full answer...
I do have a solution for you, however the Hopkins Heavy-Duty Trailer Coiled Wire Adapter # HM47065 won't work to connect the 4-Way flat on your Jeep to the 7-Way on your new camper. This is because the 4-Way on your Jeep will be the female end of the connector, which is identical to the 4-Way on this adapter. The male end will be on the trailer side. This just means the adapter won't physically plug into your setup because they are matching, instead of corresponding/compatible, plugs.

I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT78MR for your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Golden Eagle Edition. This receiver is designed to work with the Mopar off-road style rear bumper that is found on your Golden Eagle as well as Rubicon Editions. It will reuse the 4 bolts that help to secure the rear bumper on your Wrangler. It has the mounting tab welded on for your wiring harness as well. And with your rear bumper being longer it will cover the receiver tube so that it does... view full answer...
The Air Lift AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs - Rear # AL60817 can utilize spacers to compensate for a lift kit installed on the vehicle. I reached out to my contact at Air Lift and they need the internal diameter of the coil as well as the internal vehicle coil length at resting ride height. If you can get me that info, I can help you get the spacers you need or check with them to see if they recommend a different kit altogether. view full answer...
The Titan Chains part # TC2536 are a fit for your tire size of 315/70-17 and would be what I recommend. These install easily, provide great winter weather traction, and also are priced great.
I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well. view full answer...
Roadmaster offers a couple of D-ring adapters, but the adapter you need will depend on the width of the tab that attaches the D-ring to the bumper. If the tab is 3/4 of an inch wide, use # RM-035 or if it's 7/8 or 1 inch wide, use # RM-035-1. Either adapter is compatible with your Falcon # RM-522 All Terrain Tow Bar.
You'll need a few other items to flat tow your 2018 Wrangler JK. In addition to the Tow Bar which you already have and the D-ring bumper you're considering, you'll need safety... view full answer...
For your 2018 Jeep Wrangler with the factory front bumper we have base plate kits with removable arms like the Roadmaster EZ4 part # RM-521448-4 which would fit and work well, but none with fixed arms. The fixed arm kits aren't seen much on newer vehicles as that's an older design that Roadmaster is getting away from since most people much prefer the removable arm setups. The removable arm setups are preferred because when not flat towing the front of the vehicle won't have two arms hanging... view full answer...
In order to install a 7-way trailer connector on a 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler with factory tow package you can use the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket part # HM40975-11933 which is plug-n-play. This connector plugs into a factory port under the rear bumper and will replace the 4-way you have now. It has the battery charge line circuit you will need for your trailer. If the trailer also has brakes as well then you'll need a brake controller for which I recommend the Curt Echo Wireless... view full answer...

Roadmaster does not recommend the use of the brake light relay part # RM-88400 with this either on your vehicle. view full answer...
Your P255/75R17 tire will have a diameter of 32.1 inches and a width of 10 inches. For your cover, I recommend the # 052963753875. These will be a great fit for your tire size. view full answer...

The Roadmaster Blackhawk 2 part # RM-422 is a really nice tow bar that will work great to flat tow your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Golden Eagle JK. For a base plate kit you'd then want the part # 1444-3 which is a confirmed fit for the vehicle and the tow bar.
For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle.... view full answer...
The Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520 is compatible with the Curt Base Plate Kit # C38FR. You will, however, need to use adapters - Roadmaster # RM-031. This adapter kit will enable the falcon 2 tow bar to safely connect to the Curt base plate.
You will also need safety cables, wiring kit, and a braking system. If you do not already have these, I recommend # RM-643 safety cables, # RM-15267 wiring, and # BLU37TR braking system. I have included demonstration/installation videos for these... view full answer...
The Jensen LED RV TV part # JE2417 has a USB that is designed for smaller task than stored movies. It will work with JPEG, MP3 and WMA files of 16GB or less. view full answer...

For the rest of your wiring, I recommend the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # HM56200 and then cut and hardwire the 4 way into the 6-way connector # A10-6034VP using heat shrink butt connectors # DW05743-5. You will need to attach the ring terminal... view full answer...
As long as your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Oscar Mike Edition (Freedom Edition) does not have the American Expedition vehicles bumper the available base plates are the Roadmaster Direct Connect # 1444-3, Roadmaster Crossbar Style # 1444-1, and the Demco Tabless # DM34FR.
If your Jeep JK does have the American Expedition vehicles bumper you will need to go with the # DM34FR.
My recommendation is to go ahead and go with the Demco # DM34FR as it will work with either bumper option, and will allow... view full answer...
