Expert Answers about Jeep Grand Cherokee L


  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver and 4-Way Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • I feel the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C96NR is the best option for your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. This receiver hides behind the removable bumper fascia on your Jeep. That will give it a very clean appearance when not needed and provide for great ground clearance with your hitch mounted accessories. I recommend installing the 4-Way # C27BR when you install the receiver. This is the most commonly used connector on small trailers you might pull. It will also allow for Auxiliary Lights...

  • Brake Controller and Trailer Hitch for 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • For a hitch the Draw Tite part # DT42GR is a great option that is mostly hidden and has great towing capacities. This is a great place to start. Now for the wiring and brake controller you need to start with a 4-way like the part # C27BR which is a confirmed fit, has the easiest install, and is most reliable. To convert it to a 7-way and install a brake controller would require the # ETBC7 you mentioned. For a brake controller I really like the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty part # RED24FR and...

  • Recommended 4-Way Wiring Harness for 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • For your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # TK39VR. When it comes to wiring, we have found that Tekonsha makes the most reliable product. This will plug into the connection points behind your tail lights so no splicing is required. Once installed, you will have a 4-way to power your trailer lights.

  • 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a Bike Rack and Towing
  • I like the Draw-Tite # DT42GR over the Curt # C97JR for your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L because it has an integrated bracket for attaching wiring and then the safety chain loops have slightly easier access to them over the Curt. I've attached installation videos for each for you to check out. If you don't already have a bike rack I recommend checking out the Kuat Piston Pro X Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # KU98VR because it's easy to use and can accommodate a wide variety of bike frame styles....

  • Can I Use Longer Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars # RRVA137B-2 on My 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L?
  • While we do have a longer crossbar option for your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L with flush rails, Rhino-Rack cannot confirm whether the 54" Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars # RRVA137B-2 can fit onto your vehicle. This is because the # RRVA137B-2 has a finite bottom channel where it mates to the # RRRCL4. Since this is the case, the channel may not be long enough to accommodate that length on your roof to fit onto the supports. Also, since the 49" # RRVA126B-2 are the longest tested/confirmed fit...

  • Recommended Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate on 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • For your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L with the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit, # RM77ZR installed, I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar, # RM-522. The hassle-free latches on this tow bar let you easily release your Jeep, even at a hard angle or on unlevel ground. It is a stainless steel construction with telescoping arms and large hookup radius that make connecting very easy. It folds up to store on your RV. The arms will connect directly to the base...

  • What 3-Bike Rack do You Recommend for My 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L?
  • I have a great bike rack solution for you. However, I confirmed with Thule that the Gateway Pro 3 # TH78VR does not fit a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The only confirmed way to transport 3 bikes on your vehicle is with a hitch-mounted bike rack and hitch receiver. For a rack that offers the same weight capacity as the Gateway Pro 3, I recommend the Swagman Trailhead 3 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # S63365. This rack also comes with a tilting mechanism that allows you to tilt the...

  • Wiring Kit for 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L with Trailer Tow Prep Group
  • The wiring you'll need for your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L will be the T-One # TK39VR for the standard trailer light functions as well as the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7 if you also need a fully functioning 7-Way (like to tow a trailer with brakes). The steps needed to install these won't be much different than the Mopar harness as the towing group package just looked to be performance upgrades to your Jeep and didn't include the hitch or wiring. If you don't already have a hitch I recommend...

  • Brake Controller for 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L With Factory Tow Package
  • The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L with the factory tow package does not come with a brake controller so you will need to add one. The reason you don't see a listing with the factory tow package is because there are no custom wiring harnesses that are confirmed to fit for a plug and play option so installation will require hard wiring the brake controller into your Jeep. The Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR would be a great choice and one I highly recommend. The main...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • There really isn't a difference between the two Curt hitches that fit your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L or # C96NR and # C97JR. I would go with whichever is priced better. Now for trailer wiring I would go with the Tekonsha part # TK39VR as it has a much more reliable converter box.

  • 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Brake Controller Requirements for Towing a Trailer
  • According to the manual if the trailer you're towing with your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L is over 1,000 lbs Jeep recommends using a brake controller, but if the trailer is over 2,000 lbs then it is required. So if your trailer is light then you'll be good, but if it's heavier you need to use a brake controller. If you don't already have a brake controller I highly recommend the Curt Echo # C51180 because it's a wireless controller so you adjust settings via an app on your phone which saves...

  • Recommended Brake Controller and Wiring for 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • If your 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L does not have wiring you will need to add it to use a brake controller. The first thing you need is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK39VR for a 4-way. From there, you need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. This kit comes with the adapter, wiring, and everything else required to upgrade the connector to a 7-way. Once your 7-way is installed you can add a brake controller. I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake...

  • Best Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • For your application I recommend going with the Curt Trailer Hitch # C97JR which looks really clean once installed on your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L (see attached photo) plus it comes with a mounting bracket that you can use with part # 18144 so that you have an easy way to mount the recommended T-One # C27BR wiring 4-Way connector right next to the hitch receiver. Aside from that the only other thing you'll need is a ball mount kit like the Curt # C45534 which comes with everything you...

  • Best Way to Install 5-Way Trailer Wiring Connector on 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L with 4-Way
  • What you'll need is a 4-way to 5-way adapter like the part # 20036. You'll plug your current 4-way into this and then run the blue wire of the kit to the reverse light circuit and you'd be set. There isn't a different way to find the circuit you are in need of.

  • How To Add a Trailer Brake Controller To a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • I do have an option for you but there are no trailer brake controller provisions on a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L, therefore there are no plugs behind the dash to plug a brake controller into. In order to avoid a bunch of splicing into the vehicle I recommend the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180, you just need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C27BR and 4 to 7-Way with 4-Way Adapter part # ETBC7L to make this all work.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Wiring for 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • Yes, the Curt # C97JR will install behind the bumper and will be completely hidden with the bumper cover in place. For wiring, you will need to start with the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK39VR. I would choose this over the Curt since we have found Tekonsha to be the most reliable. The wiring harness will plug into connection points behind your tail lights and provide you with a 4-way. Once your 4-way is installed you can use the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller...

  • Where is the Stop Light Switch Wire on a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • I do have an option for you but there isn't a traditional stop light switch circuit on a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. Therefore, if you want to use a wired trailer brake controller you'd need a stop light switch like the RoadMaster Stop Light Switch Kit part # RM77RR. The other option would be a wireless trailer brake controller like the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller part # C51180 which does not require a stop light switch connection.
