Helpful Expert Reply:
The 2017 Jeep Wrangler Willys Wheeler uses the standard front bumper so the base plate kit part # RM-521448-5 would fit and work well. Also this would be compatible with the Roadmaster Falcon # RM-522 too.
The rest of your parts would be great options too. The SMI Kit part # SM99251 is one of our installers favorites. The safety chains part # RM-643 and tow bar lighting kit part # HM56200 will work well too.
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.
