There currently are no adapters available to connect the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521453-5 to your Demco Dominator Tow Bar # DM9511008 so instead I recommend going with the RM-521453-4 which is the same bracket but with different style arms which will allow you to use the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter # RM-032 and connect to the Dominator tow bar.

If you don't want to have to use an adapter you can use a Demco branded base plate like the # DM9519336 (Factory Plastic Bumper) or the # DM9519339 (Factory Metal Bumper) instead.

To flat tow your 2021 Jeep Wrangler you'll also need a tow bar wiring kit, braking system, and safety cables. If you haven't already purchased these items then I have the following recommendations for you:

Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. This diode kit will allow you to use your Jeep Wrangler Unlimited's tail lights and wiring system while preventing feedback from your RV.

Note: If your Jeep has ParkSense proximity sensors you will instead need the Smart Diode Kit # RM47ZR.

Braking System: Brake Buddy Stealth Supplemental Braking System - Proportional # HM39530. This system offers fully proportional braking with a system that never has to be removed, replaced, or reset. The actuator installs out of sight and remains virtually invisible when your car isn't being towed and the controller also works as a trailer brake controller so you won't have to purchase one separately if you need to haul anything behind your motorhome. This system also features built-in battery protection that keeps your towed vehicle's battery charged as you tow.

Safety Cables: RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables - 6,000lbs # RM-643. The coiled design of these cables will help prevent them from dragging on the ground and being damaged.

You may also need to use a high/low adapter to keep your tow bar level while flat towing your Jeep. This will require a little bit of measuring so I've attached our help guide article to assist you in this process.

Answer 1

Yes we do. If your 2024 Jeep Wrangler has the Parksense parking sensor alerts the kit you'd need is the #RM63MR or if you do not have the parking sensors you'd want the #RM-15267.
