2014 Jeep Wrangler Tow Bar and Lighting Recommendation for Flat Towing
Question:
Hi - I bought a used 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport that looks to be set up for towing with Roadmaster invisibrake and Roadmaster crossbar. I will attach photos. Can you tell what else I would need to purchase? Im leaning between the Falcon and Sterling tow bars.

You have two of the components needed to flat tow your 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.
You will need a tow bar like our very popular Falcon part # RM-520 and safety cables part # RM-643.
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.
Most likely you will also need a high low adapter so that the tow bar will be level when you are flat towing. I attached a link to a page that has all of the ones we carry.
I have included a couple of helpful links to our articles on flat towing for you. Be sure to consult the vehicle owners manual for more specific information on flat towing your vehicle.
