Recommended Base Plates and Flat Tow Parts for 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk
Question:
I have a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk. I note most of base plates exclude the Trailhawk. I assume that is because of the existing tow hooks. Do you have one that I can use or do I need to remove the hooks?

Expert Reply:
Many of our base plates exclude the new Trackhawk model, but they will fit the Trailhawk. The only issue with the tow hooks on your Trailhawk model is that they will have to be removed to install the base plates.
For your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk edition, I recommend installing the Roadmaster Direct-connect Base Plate Kit, # RM-521440-5. We've confirmed that these will fit the Trailhawk model, you will just have to remove the tow hooks, which will be the case for any base plate installation. I'm a big fan of Roadmaster flat towing products because they do extensive testing and have excellent customer support.
If you are still in the market for everything else that you will need to flat tow your Grand Cherokee, here is a list of parts that I recommend to complete your setup:
Wiring Kit - # RM-152-98146-7
Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar - # RM-522 (Non-binding)
Safety Cables - # RM-645
Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System - # SM99521
or
Air Force One Braking System - # SM99243 (if your motorhome has air brakes)
