Parts Needed to Flat-Tow a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
I am setting up a 2015 wrangler Jeep unlimited to flat tow behind my RV. I want to use the Nighthawk All Terrain tow bar 8000 lb. I will be using the RVi3 supplemental brake system. I need everything to make this setup tow bar, base plate, wiring harness, battery charge, DC power, etc.. Can you provide the part numbers for what I need? You guys have always been so helpful and I have learned to listen to the experts. Thanx,

In order to flat-tow a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited you'll need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, wiring harness, and supplemental braking system. It's also possible you'll need a few other items although they may not be an actual requirement but rather for convivence.
Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM-521448-5
Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar part # RM-676 (Safety Cables Included)
Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit part # RM-154
Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR
Roadmaster 12 Volt Outlet Kit part # RM-9332
We don't carry the RVi3 but the Blue Ox Patriot is one of the best and most popular braking systems on the market and what I recommend using. We have an install video of this I have attached below on a slightly newer model.
