The trailer hitches listed for the 2016 Jeep Wrangler will not fit Limited Edition or Special Edition models unless they have the same rear bumper as the regular Jeep Wrangler. Limited/Special edition models can have an alternate rear bumper that would interfere with installation of a hitch.

If your 75th anniversary edition has the regular Wrangler rear bumper then I recommend hitch # 13432. This is the most cost-effective hitch option for your Jeep. I have linked a video showing an example installation of this hitch for you.

If you plan on doing some towing I recommend 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 or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

And for trailer wiring you can use # 118416 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle. I have linked a video showing an example installation of the wiring as well.
