• Tow Bar Lighting and Trailer Wiring that Fits 2022 Jeep Wrangler
• Hey Rodney, good question so there isn't a single harness that will do both a tow bar lighting and trailer wiring solution but you can install both at the same time. So for trailer wiring you could use the Tekonsha part # 118786 and then for the tow bar lighting kit you'd want the part # C96JR. Basically the two kits would plug into each other and then back into your vehicle.

• All Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2021 Ford Ranger With Blue Ox Tow Bar

• Recommended Parts For Flat Towing 2007 Chevy Tahoe Behind Motorhome
• Hi Michael, We can get your 2007 Chevy Tahoe set up to be flat towed behind your Winnebago motorhome, and for base plates and a tow bar I recommend going with Blue Ox as the base plates will fit both the hybrid and non-hybrid versions and their tow bars have a higher capacity than most, which is needed for a big SUV like your Tahoe.

• Does Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar Have Capacity to Flat Tow 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee
• It sounds like you have a Roadmaster Falcon 2 tow bar # RM-520 which has a towing capacity of 6,000 lbs. I looked up the weight of a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee and it would weigh between 4,500 and 5,300 lbs so it would easily have the needed capacity.

The price for this is available at the links below. For lighting/safety cables, locks,...
