I can absolutely help you with that. For your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited Diesel, I recommend starting with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75713. Then add the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118727 which is a custom fit and a ball mount kit like # 989900 to allow you options to tow level.
I've attached videos to assist. If you determine you also want to add a 7-way trailer connection with # ETBC7 and a brake controller. The # RED44FR is my personal favorite because of its function and clean look. I've attached some videos to assist.
