To tow the small Pace American 4 x 6 enclosed cargo trailer with the 2020 Jeep Cherokee you will need a hitch (you already have), 4-way wiring, a ball mount, lock and hitch ball.

I recommend Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Connector part # C56406 which is known to last a bit longer compared to the other wiring options available.

You also need Curt Ball Mount part # C45070 which will give you the rise that you need. If your coupler is the standard height of 17" from the bottom of the coupler to the ground you will need the 4" rise of the Curt Ball mount. I do recommend to measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler to make sure you have standard height coupler. If you do not then please let me know the coupler height and I can recommend different parts.

From my research your trailer coupler needs a 2" ball I recommend part # 63845 for a 2" ball.

To protect your investment I recommend to use a hitch lock part # 1480DAT.
