Parts Needed To Flat-Tow a 2021 Jeep Gladiator
Question:
I have purcahasd a 2021 Jayco Precept 36a and will be leasing a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Overland to tow behind the Precept. I am familiar with Travel Trailer towing but not class A flat towing. Can you make some recommendations. I want a nice tow package so there will be no problems. I will be able to install the Base Plate. Just need to learn about the options.

In order to flat-tow a 2021 Jeep Gladiator you'll need base plates, tow bar, safety cables, supplemental braking system, and a lighting kit. The Jeep is pretty easy to setup for flat-towing and you'll only need the basics for this. I have attached for you below my recommendations.
etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit part # e98948
etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar part # e94ZR
Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR
Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 4-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit part # RM-15247 or
Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights part # TL21RK
I have installed all of these above parts on a 2021 Jeep Gladiator, the videos are attached below.
