The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit part # BX1142 is a fit for the 2020 Jeep Gladiator with steel factory bumper and adaptive cruise control. I have attached a video for your reference. You will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring, supplemental braking system and possibly a high low adapter to flat tow the Rubicon. I have attached my recommendations below to use a long with the Blue Ox base plate.
Blue Ox Alpha 2 Tow Bar part # BX7380 (comes with safety cables)
Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Kit part # RM-15267
Demco Stay-IN-Play Supplemental Braking System (motorhome with hydraulic brakes) part # SM99251
Demco SBS Air Force One Supplemental Braking System (motorhome with air brakes) part # SM99243
Finally you may need a high low adapter to tow the vehicle level with the motor home. In order to know how much rise or drop it will require to tow level some measuring is required. I have attached a helpful article that helps you figure out which high low adapter may be needed and our selection of high low adapters.
