- Recommended Trailer Wiring and Brake Controller for 2018 Jeep JL Unlimited

- In addition to the Replacement Towed Vehicle Installation Kit # SM99226 you will also need brake light relay # RM-88400.
The # RM-88400 relay is required to prevent the towed vehicle's brake signal from overriding the turn signal from the RV when applying the brakes during a turn but is not required if using magnetic tow lights such as # RM-2120.

- The MaxxTow Adjustable-Height Ball Mount # MT70068 is sold as a whole unit so the base part isn't available separately so you would need to purchase 2 of these if you are needing to use 2 different size hitch balls, or you could use an interchanging hitch ball like part # 903B.
