  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for 2017 Jeep Cherokee
  • For your 2017 Jeep Cherokee we do offer universal-fit towing mirrors that you can attach to your OEM mirrors for a wider, safer view behind you when you tow your trailer. All confirmed fits are shown on the linked page. For each we show installation on a 2017 Cherokee like yours. I suggest the K-Source Clip-On Mirror # KS3891. This mirror is sold individually so you'll want to order 2 for both sides of the vehicle. Ratcheting straps provide a snug fit for reduced vibration and "ghosting"...

  • Is there a Thule Roof Rack Fairing for a 1998 Jeep Cherokee with Thule Crossbars Installed
  • You can use a fairing with the Thule crossbars on your 1998 Jeep Cherokee. You will want to measure the distance between the feet where they attach to the bar to get the correct size. We have several lengths available like the 52 inch # TH22WV. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view.

  • Availability of Front Mounted Receiver Hitch for 2000 Dodge Durango
  • If your Durango is a 4WD model, we do indeed have a front mounted receiver that would fit. You'd need the Curt Front Mounted Receiver, part # 31080. We don't offer a front mounted receiver for a 2WD model. For a winch mount, I'd recommend the Curt # C31010 which is compatible with the industry standard bolt pattern used by most winches.

  • Comparin EZ4 and EZ5 Base Plate Kit for Flat Towing 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  • We have two different style of Roadmaster base plate kits that fit your 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. The EZ5 part # RM-521446-5 which does not require the use of the included crossbar of a tow bar, or the EZ4 part # RM-521446-4 which does. If it were me I would go with the EZ5 as it's a simpler connection that's easier to make. Both work great with the Roadmaster Sterling part # RM-576 which is a very nice tow bar that you'll really like. It comes with safety cables too. For lighting...

  • Brake Buddy Stealth Supplemental Braking System, Proportional for 2019 Jeep Cherokee
  • Yes, I suggest the Brake Buddy Stealth Supplemental Braking System - Proportional, # HM39530. This too is a a proportional braking system that remains in the Jeep same as the Demco. It is an equivalent product to other originally recommended from a different, but very reputable company.

  • Dual Hitch Receiver that Keeps a Flat Tow Set-up at the Same Height with Minimal Rise for Bike Rack
  • I do have another option for you, but you are correct that the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4 would not work with your Jeep sitting +2" already because you would be sitting with the Jeep at +4" with the # RM-077-4 adapter. We do have the Curt Dual Hitch Extender # D-192 which will maintain your current height for your flat tow set up and provide a second hitch receiver with a 5-3/4" rise for you bike rack. This is the smallest rise we have for a dual hitch adapter that...

  • Availability of Adapter For Connecting 6-Way Round on Trailer to 4-Way Flat on Tow Vehicle
  • I would recommend to use the Mighty Cord 4-Way to 6-Way Adapter, part # A10-6034VP. If you only want to use the basic lighting functions provided by the 4-Way (left/right turn, brake, and running lights) then all you will need to do is plug the 4-Way end of the # A10-6034VP adapter, into the vehicle 4-Way. The trailer 6-Way will then plug into the 6-Way receptacle on the adapter. You will also need to ground the white wire on the adapter to the vehicle frame at a clean and corrosion free...

  • Is Brake Lite Relay Needed with Install of Hopkins Tow Bar Wiring Kit 2017 Jeep Cherokee

  • Blue Ox Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2014 Jeep Cherokee TrailHawk
  • The correct Blue Ox base plate kit for your 2014 Jeep Cherokee is the part # BX1136 that you referenced. There are a few other things needed aside from this and the Blue Ox tow bar you have currently as well. 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. This comes with a round 6-way connector...

  • Trailer Wheel and Tire Recommendation for Replacing 7.00-13 Tire Size
  • According to several conversion charts I found online, the closest 'modern' tire size to 7.00x13 is 185/80-13. We offer the tire only in a load range D (1,710 @ 65 psi) as part # AM1ST79. We also offer the same load range tires mounted on rims. For a white painted wheel with a 5-on 4-1/2 bolt pattern, choose # AM3S331, for the same tire on a galvanized wheel, go with part # AM3S334, or for a white modular wheel, part # AM3S333 .

  • How Fast Can Trailer Tire in Size 5.70-8 Go
  • Normally tire speed ratings are listed right after the tire size as a letter. For example the letter M represents and 81 mph speed rating. If you can't find a speed rating after the tire size the safe assumption will be that the tire is limited to 65 mph which used to be the standard speed for trailer tires. I tried to find the speed rating of the Hi Run 5.70-8 that you have and only could find the listing "applicable for high speed driving" but not an actual rating. So based on our tires...
