Expert Reply:
The installation of the Draw-Tite Class III 2 Inch Hitch, part # 75699, on a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited will not require any cutting or trimming of the plastic fascia in the rear of the vehicle. It will use existing bolts and weld nuts on the vehicle. I am including a link to the installation instructions on the Hidden Hitch.
To complete your towing setup, you will need the following items:
Draw-Tite Ball Mount, part # AMSC2
Pin and Clip, part # PC3
Tow Ready 2 Inch Hitch Ball, part # 19247, or Tow Ready 1-7/8 Inch Hitch Ball, part # 19260
Tow Ready T-One Wiring Harness, part # 118425, or with tow package use Tow Ready Wiring, part # 118384
I am including links to the installation instructions on both wiring harnesses.
