To attached to a Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520 you'll need to install a Roadmaster baseplate like # RM-521448-5 on your 2016 Jeep Wrangler. This baseplate has direct-connect arms to match the attachment point on your Falcon. It's only confirmed to fit a standard bumper, so if you have an aftermarket or special edition bumper I'll need to know so I can find a compatible fit.
If you haven't purchased the rest of your flat towing components 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 have everything you need to transfer your motorhome's tail light signals through the tail lights of your Wrangler, keeping you street legal.
Braking System: If your motorhome has hydraulic brakes then I recommend the Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251. For air brakes I recommend the Demco Air Force One Supplemental Braking System for Motor Homes with Air Brakes # SM99243.
Both of these systems can be installed out of the way and give you a permanent system that's ready to go as soon as you are so that there's no hassle of setting up a system every time you want to tow your Wrangler.
Safety Cables: RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables # RM-643. The coiled design of these cables will help keep them from dragging on the ground and being damaged.
