In regards to flat-towing components, there are a few different brands such as Roadmaster, Blue Ox, or Demco to choose from. If you prefer one over another then that is fine but I think each excel in certain areas so I recommend mixing and matching. The Roadmaster tow bars for example have a torque multiplier system that makes disengaging the arms much easier than other options such as Blue Ox. The Demco braking systems tend to be easier to install and perform better than other options from Roadmaster or Blue Ox. I have attached some parts recommended for a 2012 Jeep Liberty below.
