Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatible With 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Hard Rock Edition
Question:
I am looking for a class III or higher hitch for a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Rock Hard Edition. I saw a couple on your site last week, but cannot locate it today. Thanks

The factory bumper on your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock Edition is the Mopar part # 82213654. So the Draw-Tite Max-Frame # DT78MR is a confirmed fit for your Jeep. I reached out to the manufacturer to be sure.
If you will be towing with this trailer hitch receiver, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118416. This harness will connect behind the driver's-side tail light of your vehicle and will give you a 4-way standard trailer wiring connection.
For a ball mount, I recommend the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop, 5-1/2" Rise - 10K - Black # BWTS10037B. This will give you the adjustability to tow many trailers level and gives you a 2 inch or 2-5/16 inch hitch ball option. This ball mount has a very nice stowing feature integrated for a nice clean look when not in use.
