  • Which Yakima Feet for 2017 Jeep Cherokee for Roof Rack for Yakima SkyBox Cargo Box
  • For your 2019 Jeep Cherokee with the raised rails the correct Yakima feet for attaching crossbars is the Timberline like the Yakima Jetstream roof rack part numbers # Y00425 and # Y33TR. These would work really well with the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 part # Y95AV you also mentioned. There would be no clearance issues as I checked with Yakima to confirm this for you.

  • Best Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2017 Jeep Cherokee
  • According to the owner's manual I looked up, yes, you can flat tow a 2017 Jeep Cherokee Latitude, so long as it is a 4-wheel drive model with a 2-speed transfer case (which means you'll have a Neutral position in the power transfer unit). There are a number of parts you'll need in order to do this, and I'll list the best ones for your Jeep Cherokee: - Base Plate Kit: Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit # DM9519307 - Tow Bar: Commander II Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511012 - Wiring Kit: Roadmaster...

  • Is Mopar Flat Tow Wiring Harness Required For 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  • I was able to find the owner's manual for your 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk and it does not mention requiring the Mopar Flat Tow Wiring Harness 68321424AB. I looked at the 2018 owner's manual and it does mention it there so you are correct that the 2018 and older Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk's will require the mentioned harness but your 2019 will not. I would highly recommend you check your owner's manual and read the Recreational Towing Section to make sure you follow the exact procedures...

  • Brake Controller and Install Harness Recommendation for 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk w Tow Package
  • For a brake controller for your 2015 Jeep Cherokee with the factory tow package I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future...

  • Curt Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2019 Jeep Cherokee Limited
  • I checked with Curt and their hitch part # C13395 is a confirmed fit for your 2019 Jeep Cherokee Limited model. The hands free liftgate will only be slightly affected. You'd just have to kick to either side of the hitch opening to operate it. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # C56406. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise...

  • Kayak Rack for Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack on 2014 Jeep Cherokee
  • There are a couple of really good option for the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG216 that fits your 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The best option is a J-style kayak carrier, and you can choose from one that is either folding, for better aerodynamics and less noise if you plan to leave the carriers on your Jeep, or fixed if you are going to remove them. - Folding: Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # MPG114MD - Fixed: Malone J-Pro2 Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # MPG117MD I have added...

  • Blue Ox or etrailer Base Plates For 2021 Jeep Cherokee For Use With Demco Tow Bar
  • While I can't speak to price differences, what I can tell you is that for your 2021 Jeep Cherokee (so long as it is not an Overland or Trailhawk model), since you have a Demco tow bar like the Demco Excali-Bar III # DM9511013 (or an earlier version of the Excali-Bar), I recommend the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98953. There isn't any difference in function or any noticeable difference in install between the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1144 and the etrailer # e98953, so the only...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2019 Jeep Cherokee with Factory Rails
  • For your 2019 Jeep Cherokee that is equipped with the factory raised rails I recommend going with the Rhino-Rack StealthBar Roof Rack # JA7972. These are really nice, aerodynamic crossbars that will clamp to the side rails on your Jeep. They feature a sleek flush design that gives them an OEM appearance and they have a 165 pound weight capacity.

  • Your R-pod has a Dometic system with a low profile that is 13,500 btu. The Replacement RV Air Conditioner Cover for Penguin and Dometic Air Conditioners - White # AT3308046006 is what I believe you need for your shroud. I've linked a video to assist with measurements for you to check against your unit.

  • What Do I Need To Tow My 2018 Jeep Cherokee Behind My Motorhome
  • If you want to flat tow your 2018 Jeep Cherokee, you will need to determine what type of Jeep Cherokee you have. Not all models can be flat-towed. If you have a front wheel drive model, you will need to use a tow dolly or a trailer. We do offer tow dollies and my recommendation is the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly with Disc Brakes - Foldable - 4,800 lbs, part # DM9713045. It comes with safety chains and a surge brake coupler. You will need a trailer, if your 2018 Jeep Cherokee has a 1-speed...

  • Recommended 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack for 2019 Jeep Cherokee with Roofline Spoiler
  • For a vehicle that has a rear roofline spoiler above the window, such as the 2019 Jeep Cherokee, you'll want a 3-bike rack that will not apply any pressure to this part of the vehicle. Spoilers like this are not made to bear any weight and many racks' mounting straps can put pressure on them. The folks at Hollywood Racks made a rack to address this specific concern, their Over-the-Top 3 Bike Rack # HRF2-3. This unique carrier uses an arched frame design that prevents the top straps from...

  • Tow Bar Wiring that Bypasses Tail Light Wiring on a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  • I checked with Roadmaster and the bulb and socket kit, # RM-155, is not recommended for your 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk due to limited available space in the tail light housing for the bulbs. Another option that bypasses the vehicle wiring is to use a kit such as # RM-2120 if you have a horizontal surface to attach them. This kit has a part of the bracket that you would close into the rear hatch which holds the lights in place. Or, to keep the lights off of the vehicle, you could use...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2015 Jeep Cherokee for Carrying Enclosed Cargo Carrier
  • The Curt hitch part # C13172 that you referenced is going to be your best option for carrying your Yakima EXO Swing Away Enclosed Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches # Y62VR. This hitch has more than enough capacity, has only the hitch opening visible, and is by far the best priced. I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

  • Best Tow Bar for a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
  • The absolute best tow bar that is offered for your 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk is the Demco Dominator Tow Bar part # DM9511008. The reason for this is because it is mostly made of aluminum which means it is lightweight (only 30 lbs), has self-supporting arms that will not fall to the ground when unhooked, and has a unique hitching procedure that does not require you to step over the bars once you have made the final connection. It also has the same self-aligning and non-binding design...

  • Buffer and Product to Use on Motorhome to Remove Scratches/Swirls
  • For an orbital to use to buff and polish your motorhome the Griot's Garage part # 34910813STDCRD is a great choice. For polishing/buffing the orange pads like part # 349B120F5 with a polish like # 34910862 would work great for removing moderate swirls and scratches. Then for a wax sealant we have the part # 34910916 and for pads to apply part # 349B140F6.

  • Concealed Trailer Hitch Recommendatio for 2019 Jeep Cherokee
  • We have trailer hitches with concealed crosstubes that fit your 2019 Jeep Cherokee like the etrailer part # e73ZR which is a great option, but the hitch tube does hang below the rear bumper of the vehicle. We do not have a hitch like the Mopar part number you mentioned which comes out higher in the rear fascia. I attached an installed picture for this hitch for you to check out as well.
