Both running boards will fit your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited but the NX PowerBoard # B7565215 gives you 6 to 9 inches down. So this would be useful if you had a lift or bigger tires on your Jeep as it'll help you get up into the vehicle. The other set # B7515215 is only 2 to 6 inches. This would be if you had a completely stock Jeep wrangler. Both are the same in every way besides the amount of drop you need. view full answer...
The main difference between the Roadmaster direct connect base plate kit (previously known as the EZ5) # RM-521453-5 and the cross bar style base plate kit (previously known as the EZ4) # RM-521453-4 is how the tow bar attaches to the base plate.
The cross bar style base plate uses a quick disconnect bar to connect the tow bar up, the direct connect uses pins and clips to mount to the tow bar. They install exactly the same, the arms are the only difference. A direct connection makes it... view full answer...
The main benefit of tapping into the RV air brakes for a toad braking setup is that there is a direct connection between the motorhome braking and the towed vehicle's braking. There is no time delay and there are no sensors that need to react to changes to the vehicle's inertia before they do anything. In short, there is synchronization between the two braking systems. As you noted, installation of such systems is a lot more intrusive and complicated.

Since both the EZ4 # RM-521448-4 and EZ5 # RM-521448-5 base plate kits fit your 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited and have removable draw bars there really doesn't seem to be much of a difference at first glance. However, there are some significant differences that are important to take note of.
The EZ5 kit is easier to connect your Falcon tow bar to but does not allow the use of the anchor brackets for sterling cables. Sterling cable anchors will have to be attached to the frame or welded... view full answer...
You are right that both the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 and Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-4 are confirmed to fit your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. The difference between the two models is simply how they are designed to attach to a tow bar.
The Direct-Connect Base Plates can connect directly to the arms of a compatible Roadmaster tow bar, without the use of a crossbar like what comes with the Falcon 2 # RM-520 or directly to a model that doesn't... view full answer...
When it comes to choosing between the Curt TruTrack Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control # C17499 and the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control # EQ37100ET you'll want to take a couple of things into consideration:
1. Both systems have integrated sway control.
2. Both systems have a no-drill installation.

3. Both systems are rated for about the same, with one system having a maximum tongue weight range of 500-800lbs, and the other at 600-1,000lbs.

The main difference between the Roasmaster # RM-521453-5 (previously known as EZ5) and # RM-521453-4 (previously known as EZ4) base plate kits for your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, is that the RM-521453-5 is a Direct-Connect style, meaning your motor-home mounted tow bar attaches directly to the base plate's removable arms, without the need for a crossbar. This is the easiest to connect and disconnect, and it also makes your tow-bar about 20 lbs lighter, so the # RM-521453-5 is your best... view full answer...
Both are great jounce-style systems that have similar functions. The Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System, Item # TJRJK, is designed to provide support and stability with vehicles that are carrying heavy loads. The Timbrens are a stiffer spring that are really designed for heavy lifting often associated with trucks and their loads and so they will be a "rougher" ride in your 2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. In contrast, the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs, Item # SSR-401-47,... view full answer...
The reason the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 for your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited does not use a crossbar for the tow bar is due to the design of the removable arms that connect directly to the tow bar instead of requiring a tow bar. There is not a hidden cross bar on the base plate.
You are correct that the crossbar adds strength to the system, but on Jeeps like yours direct connect base plates are plenty strong and are the most common option due to them allowing... view full answer...
The biggest difference between the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack that uses the Backbone system vs the one that doesn't is that the Backbone system more or less offers a whole skeleton body for the platform rack to connect to as opposed to just connecting to a roof rack on your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. This means that you'll get a better weight capacity out of the platform so if you plan on using it a lot and loading it up then I definitely recommend going with the Backbone system.

The only difference between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13392 and etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98856 for a 2023 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is their finish. The etrailer hitch has a matte finish which blends in with the vehicle better and hides scratches more and the Curt hitch has a shiny finish. They are both great and equally durable. I recommend the etrailer hitch as it simply looks a bit nicer.
In order to complete your towing setup you'll also need the T-One Vehicle... view full answer...
The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 is the upgraded version of the Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-4 for your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. The direct-connect has the same basic installation and removable arms just like the crossbar-style option but the direct-connect is much easier to use out in the field because you connect the arms independently of each other instead of having them linked with a crossbar. Because of this I recommend going with the direct-connect... view full answer...
The biggest difference between the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-4 and the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 for your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is going to be the style of tow bar that you can use. The Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-4 will allow you to use a tow bar like the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plates # e44ZR. The Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 will allow you to use a tow... view full answer...
Both the Roadmaster EZ4 Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-4 and EZ5 Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-5 will fit on your 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. The primary difference between the two designs is the way they attach to the tow bar. The EZ5 does not use the quick-connect crossbar which provides a cleaner look, but prevents you from using some accessories that mount to the crossbar such as a Rock Guard like the Roadmaster # RM-4000. If you are at all interested in using a rock guard or protective... view full answer...
The Curt # 13432 and the # 9883544 were the same exact hitch. We got a significant volume discount on that hitch from Curt, and were selling the discounted hitch under a different part number. We have since ran out of the # 9883544, but still have the # 13432 available.
The # 13432 hitch is a fit for the 2014 Wrangler Unlimited. If you'd care to see an install video, click on the provided link. view full answer...
In regards to using a rooftop mounted tent, there is really no comparison between the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System part # JB0893 and Roof Rack for Jeep JL and JL Unlimited Hardtop part # ER84FR. The reason for this is because there really isn't a good way to attach a rooftop tent to the platform without modifications so the latter will be a much better option for this purpose. In regards to support, most rooftop tents use a ladder which helps with weight... view full answer...
There are a few differences between the RockyMounts Hitch Extender part # RKY10011 (LS) and part # RKY10008. The first is that the LS model has a premium lock core body which more durable. It also has a better anti-rattle design so there will be a further reduction in movement. view full answer...
That's a good question and the only difference between the two Roadmaster base plate kits that fit your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited are the style of Roadmaster tow bar that connects to them. The Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-4 allows you to utilize a Roadmaster crossbar-style tow bar, while the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 won't allow the use of a tow bar with a crossbar.
The direct-connect base plates are also easier to use a tow bar with... view full answer...
There are several differences between the Brake Buddy Classic 3 # HM39494 and the Select 3 # HM39524. The main difference is that the Select is a true proportional system while the Classic is not. The Classic does have an inertia sensor but it will only apply the brakes according to the preset brake power settings, not proportionally to the braking action of your RV.
The Select also lets you choose between proportional and full-braking action. This means you can have the brakes at max... view full answer...
To put it simply...the difference is 4 inches. The platform of the # C18150 measures 20 inches by 60 inches and the part # C18152 measures 24 by 60 inches.
Also, the shank of the # C18152 is a bit longer which would be better for you. It has a distance of 11 inches from the center of the hitch pin to the nearest rail whereas the # C18150 has 7-1/2 inches there.
I attached a review video that shows the # C18150 being used on a 2015 Wrangler Unlimited just like yours as well. view full answer...
