For a 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a factory plastic bumper I recommend the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 along with the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e74ZR.
This baseplate kit has removable arms to provide a clean factory look when not in use. The tow bar is designed to match up to the baseplate and comes with safety cables so you don't have to purchase them separately. The shank is also adjustable to help keep the tow bar level between the motorhome and Jeep without the need of a high/low adapter.
For the tow bar wiring I recommend the Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Wire Hybrid Cord # RM-152-1676-7.
Since you have combined wiring you'll also need the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751490 to prevent your brake signal from overriding the turn signal.
For the braking system I recommend the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39524. This system comes with a remote that lets you easily adjust the brake power settings from your motorhome and also comes with a charge line kit to keep your Jeep's battery charged while you tow.
