I tried finding information for your Dx8 bumper on your 2017 Jeep Wrangler, but was unable to locate much. You will want to ensure that the bumper is rated for flat tow use.
As long as your bumper is rated for flat tow use, we do have an option for your 3/4" shackle holes.

This will allow you to use the Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676, which also includes the needed... view full answer...
The Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH77FRT is not meant to be used in that manor and in all honesty is not something we are going to recommend you try and do.
The best bet would be to just use the Curt Bolt On Tow Hook with Keeper # C22411 for recovery purposes and use the hitch as it's designed.
This tow hook will get bolted to your frame, has a 10,000 lb capacity, and is used purely for recovery purposes. view full answer...
There isn't a way to use the Stowmaster tow bar with the D-Ring bumper mounts, so you'll need a new tow bar to flat tow your 2007 Jeep Wrangler. The exact parts you need to flat tow your '07 Wrangler with your D-ring bumper are the following:
- 3/4" Shackle Mounts: Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts # RM-035
or
- 1" Shackle Mounts: Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts # RM-035-1

Since you have a 33" axle spread I recommend the MORryde Rubber Equalizers for Tandem Axle Trailers - 33" Wheelbase item # MR87ZR. They are cushioned so they will do a great job of absorbing road shock and providing a smoother ride for your new Haul-About Trailer with Liberty Axles.
If you have 2-1/4" long shackles you will need the MORryde Suspension Upgrade Kit for Tandem Axle Trailers - 2-1/4" Long item # MR46ZR, and if your shackles are 3-1/8" long you will need the MORryde Suspension... view full answer...
Yes, this is something that can be done. You will need some extra parts to make this work. If you want to flat tow your 2004 Jeep TJ with the Bestop HighRock 4x4 High Access Front Bumper w Winch Plate for Jeep - Matte Black, part # B4491701, you will need the Bestop D-Ring Shackle Set for 4x4 HighRock Bumpers - 9,500 lbs - Qty 2, part # B4292100, and the Blue Ox Aftermarket Off-Road Bumper Adapter - 7/8" Pin, part # BX88357.

The Dexter Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit # K71-449-00 comes with 8 bushings for the 4 leaf springs. The included equalizers will already have bushings pressed in.
You might also consider upgrading to the Dexter E-Z Flex Suspension Kit # K71-653-00 with the cushioned equalizers. These will help to absorb the road shock and minimize chucking when towing.
I recommend using the LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease # L11390 with a Grease Gun # L30416. This grease is specifically formulated... view full answer...
For your 2000 Jeep Wrangler, we have a few options for you. Since you mentioned you have an off-road bumper, you're going to need some adapters to connect to your tow bar. If you have 1" thick shackle mounts, you're going to want to use # RM-035-1, or, if you have 3/4" thick shackle mounts, you're going to want to use # RM-035.
Along with adapter brackets, you're going to need a tow bar, a braking system, tow bar wiring, and a high low adapter.
For a tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster... view full answer...
To attach your axles to the the frame of the car hauler you will need the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hanger Kit for Double-Eye Springs # AP233-H248. This kit includes all the hangers, equalizers, shackle straps, shackle bolts and nuts to fit your axles. I have linked an article below that will help you with positioning the axles on your trailer to ensure that you have the correct percentage of tongue weight when towing to be safe.

There isn't a way to know for sure without knowing what you have currently, however it sounds like you have the:
-Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX3501.
This base plate kit is a direct fit for your 1987 Suzuki Samurai, measures 24" between tabs, and weighs 28-lbs.
If this is what your Samurai has, then you are going to need an adapter # RM-031 unless you have the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar for Blue Ox Base Plates # RM-525 in which this will work with your Blue Ox base plates with no adapter.

Whether your Jeep Wrangler can be flat towed as it's currently configured will depend on the aftermarket bumper installed on it.
If the bumper on your Jeep is rated for towing (not all of them are), and the tab the D-ring towing shackle is mounted to is 3/4 or 1 inch thick (see photo), Roadmaster offers D-Ring adapters that would allow certain Roadmaster tow bars to attach to your bumper. If the tab is 3/4 inches thick, use # RM-035 or # RM-035-1 for a 1 inch thick tab. These adapters... view full answer...
When installing a suspension enhancement on your 2018 Ford F-150 you would not be able to run both. Out of both choices I would use The RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS3611-Y.
The RAS has a 2,000 pound capacity. This custom kit actively strengthens the leaf springs for improved ride quality with or with out a load. They have an easy, bolt-on installation. It also helps extend the life of leaf springs, shock absorbers, shackles, and even tires. Using this... view full answer...
The Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shocks # RM-2470-2580 is a great option for upgrading the suspension on your 2009 Carriage Carri-Lite 36SBQ 5th wheel! The addition of the shocks not only helps with the up and down movement of your trailer but it also helps to limit the amount of side to side sway you see during towing (like when a semi passes you).
We've confirmed with Roadmaster that this system works both with overslung and underslung leaf spring setups but... view full answer...

Flat towing your 1983 Jeep CJ5 that has a custom bumper will require D-rings or another method of attaching a tow bar. The maker of your custom bumper may offer a suitable kit but I urge you to check with them anyway to confirm that the bumper is rated for flat towing. This is not necessarily the case so you'll want to make certain before you proceed. We do have d-ring tow bar adapters such as # RM-035-1 from Roadmaster to allow hookup of... view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but judging by the axle dimensions that you've provided it would appear that is a custom axle, so we won't have a solution for that in a stock axle. You could replace your old axles with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System w Electric Brake Hubs - Straight Spindle - 3,500 lbs # A35RS545E, which would give you a one stop part to replace your existing axles and suspension components. This kit has the 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern to match your existing... view full answer...
The Bulldog Stubby Bumper # BDW21000 is not rated for flat towing. I spoke to Bulldog about using it to flat tow and they said they haven't tested it long-term in that fashion but if the bumper is reinforced it could be used. It is confirmed to fit both the 1994 and 1997 Jeep Wranglers you have.
The Bulldog Stubby bumper has 3/4 inch shackles so you can use the Roadmaster Adapters # RM-035 to connect to a tow bar. The tow bar I recommend is the Roadmaster Falcon 2 # RM-520 and safety... view full answer...
To flat tow your 2006 Jeep Rubicon you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental brake system, and possibly a high-low adapter.
Since your Rubicon has the D-Ring bumper mounts you will want to use either part # RM-035 if the shackle mounts are 3/4" thick or part # RM-035-1 if they are 1" thick. This will take the place of a base plate kit and will work great with the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520 and RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled... view full answer...
It sounds like you're having trouble finding baseplates that will fit your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited because of a custom Poison Spyder front bumper so you can flat tow it. Well I've got good news for you because we carry D-ring adapters that fit the 3/4 inch shackle mounts on your bumper. They're part # RM-035 and are compatible with Roadmaster tow bars.
For a Roadmaster tow bar I recommend the Falcon 2 # RM-520. It's our most popular tow and is very reliable. For safety cables... view full answer...
Your Warn off-road bumper has shackle mounts. If the mounts are 3/4 of an inch thick you can use the adapter # RM-035 or if they're 1 inch thick you can use # RM-035-1. Both adapters will work with your Roadmaster Falcon 2 # RM-520 with no problem at all.
If you don't already have them you'll also need safety cables, wiring, a braking system, and likely a high-low adapter to flat tow the Jeep.
The safety cables I recommend at # RM-643. They're coiled which helps keep them off of the... view full answer...
Flat towing a vehicle behind another vehicle takes a few components including the tow bar, safety cables, a wiring or lighting kit of some kind, and a braking system for the towed vehicle. Since you are not towing with a motorhome you may not need a high/low hitch adapter to keep the tow bar level and since your towed Jeep has an aftermarket bumper you may not need base plates.
You will want to confirm with the maker of the Jeep's front bumper whether that specific product is rated for... view full answer...
