Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Question:
2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I would like you to quote a hitch and wiring harness for the above described vehicle. Are there options to go from the four prong the round style. My trailers have both styles?

Expert Reply:
For a hitch for your 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee the Draw Tite hitch part # 75699 that you referenced would be exactly what you would need.
To install a 4-way all you need is the part # 118425.
Now if your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way.
If you do have trailer brakes you would need the # ETBC7 instead of the # 37185 and a brake controller. This kit comes with everything needed to wire up the 7-way and install a brake controller.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
