The rack looks an awful lot like a RhinoRack Roof Basket, part # RMCB. Unfortunately I've never seen a dedicated ski solution for one of these racks. I reached out to Rhino Rack becuase of the similarities in your basket and the Rhino rack, and they recommend against mounting anything to the basket itself.
Instead, I'd recommend that if you have any extra space on either side of your roof rack, mounting a small, 2 ski carrier like the Rhino Rack Ski and Fishing Rod carrier, part # RR572.... view full answer...
Since your 2016 Jeep Patriot Sport FWD has a manual transmission it is able to be flat towed as long as you put the transmission in neutral and turn the key to the ACC position.
To flat tow your Patriot you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, and a supplemental braking system.
Starting with the base plate kit I recommend the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1130 which have removeable arms and really blend in to the front of your Jeep as you can see in the included... view full answer...
We had a Jeep Patriot on our lot so I went out to take some measurements. For the Patriot, I recommend choosing a roof bag that is no wider than 36 inches because that is the space you have available between the side rails on your roof. If you choose a wider roof bag, the bag will hang over the side rails.
One roof bag that you may be interested in is the Rightline Ace Rooftop Cargo Bag, # RL100A20. This bag is 34 inches wide x 44 inches long x 17 inches tall. This cargo bag should be... view full answer...
Since your 2017 Jeep Patriot has an automatic transmission that is not a CVT then yes, the Derale cooler part # D15502 will work. CVT transmissions don't typically have the external cooler lines like the non-CVT transmissions have so based on that we know it will work. view full answer...
Blue Ox does not offer a custom fit flat tow wiring kit for your 2009 Jeep Patriot so your best option would be a diode kit like the Roadmaster part # RM-15267 which although does require some splicing into your vehicle wiring will work extremely well and be very reliable unlike some of of the more custom fit options. view full answer...
Yes, you can flat tow a 2015 Jeep Patriot FWD with a manual/standard transmission. The Roadmaster base plate kit part # 521441-1 that you referenced is the correct fit.
In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The most popular compatible tow bar is the Falcon All Terain, # RM-522. This has non-binding arms which makes the setup very easy to connect/disconnect.
For lighting/safety... view full answer...
Your 2016 Jeep Patriot Latitude is limited to either 1,000lbs or 2,000lbs of towing capacity. If you have either the Freedom Drive II Off Road Package or Trailer Tow Prep Package with the 2.4L engine your towing capacity is 2,000lbs, anything else you are limited to 1,000lbs. If you are unsure, be sure to consult your Jeep dealer for exactly what your vehicle came from the factory with. Be sure to include the trailer weight into your towing weight if you wish to use the trailer.

The D-Ring part # RR06 has a 2,000 lb capacity. That is the only recessed mounted D-ring we carry that has a capacity between the # RR01C and the # RR05.
I would recommend you go with more capacity that you need as opposed to less than you need. view full answer...
First let's get a hitch installed on your 2016 Jeep Patriot. For that you'd want the Draw Tite hitch part # 75712 which is a confirmed fit and would be a great choice for a 3 bike rack. It has a concealed crosstube too so only the hitch opening would be visible.
Then for a 3 bike rack the Kuat Transfer 3 part # KU24FR would be a great option. It's a platform rack so it will be very easy to load/unload and will hold the bikes very securely. I attached a review video for this rack for you... view full answer...
First you'll want to start with the Draw Tite Hitch part # 75712 which is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Jeep Patriot and would work well. I attached an install video for this for you to check out too. It's a 2 inch hitch which will have higher towing capacities.
You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118552.
From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want... view full answer...
Your owners manual will be the final authority on towing capacities for your 2014 Jeep Patriot. Most of the info I found on your vehicle said 2,000 lbs was the max capacity, but you will need to verify that with the owners manual since different equipped versions of the same vehicle can have different capacities.
That being said, you can use a trailer hitch on your vehicle that has a higher capacity than your vehicle. You would just have to be sure not to exceed the vehicle capacity. So... view full answer...
The Kat's block heater part # KH11812 that you referenced is the correct heater for your 2015 Jeep Patriot with a 2.4 liter engine. The cartridge location you'll need to use is on the front side of the block as you face the engine under the hood all the way on the driver side. view full answer...
As long as your cylinder has the code A76 on it then the Replacement Key for Inno Roof Racks, Bike Racks, and Cargo Boxes # INA76 that you referenced is compatible and will fit. If you have a different number let me know. view full answer...
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 that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV. I prefer this style to the bulb and socket styles that require drilling into the light housing or the... view full answer...
If you want a wiring harness for your 2007 Jeep Patriot that is made in the USA, then the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55050 is the way to go. This harness will install the same way by connecting to the factory wiring with easy connectors located behind the tail lights of your Patriot. This harness will also draw power directly from your vehicle battery to protect your electrical system from overload. view full answer...
Base plate kit fits are very specific and only will typically fit a model of vehicle for a few years before a new fit is needed so a base plate from a 2010 Jeep Wrangler would not fit a 2017 Patriot so you'd need the # BX1130. view full answer...
Yes, the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM11142175 referenced in your question is designed to work with your 2015 Jeep Patriot and will be perfect for installing a 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of your vehicle. This harness includes a powered tail light converter that connects directly to the battery to avoid overloading your Patriot's electrical system and will connect quickly and easily using the connection points behind the vehicle tail lights.

In order to install and use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist # TH898 on your 2011 Jeep Patriot, you will need to first install a roof rack system.
If your Jeep Patriot has the factory raised side rails on the roof that run front to back, I recommend the Thule SquareBar Roof Rack that consists of # TH712200 for the two 47 inch SquareBar Crossbars and # TH710401 for the Foot Pack. This will give you a sturdy roof rack with a weight capacity of 165 pounds.

If the Jeep Patriot has a 1-1/4 inch size hitch installed on it the Reese bike rack part # TH9058 would fit and work well. There are 1-1/4 inch hitches available for a 2012 Jeep Patriot like the Draw Tite hitch part # 36423 but you would still want to measure the hitch of the vehicle to be sure as there are also 2 inch hitches available for this vehicle too.
The other option is to go with a bike rack that can fit both hitch sizes of 2 inch and 1-1/4 inch so that you don't have to measure... view full answer...
I pulled up the owners manual of your 2014 Jeep Patriot online and found that all of the manual transmission versions of the vehicle can be flat towed at any highway speed and for any distance. You need to put the transmission in neutral and the ignition key in the ACC position.
The Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX1130 that you referenced is a confirmed fit and would work great with the Avail tow bar part # BX7420.
For lighting you could use the # RM-15247. The diode kit that comes... view full answer...
