The hitch with the longest receiver available for your 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT78MR.

This trailer hitch measures 13" long, 6" high and the receiver measures 6-1/2" long. This trailer hitch has a maximum towing capacity of 4,500-lbs, a maximum tongue weight of 675-lbs, and has an easy bolt-on installation.

I have attached an installation video as well as the dimensions of the hitch for you to check out.
