Parts Needed to Flat-Tow a 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
I have a 2017 Thor Aria class a rv. Has air brakes but no air hookup for a trailer. It does have a constant hot 12v at the 7 way plug. The intended tow vehicle is a 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited Sahara. The jeep currently has an older demco toe bracket installed that I intent to replace as it looks terrible and protrudeds from the bumper. I’m looking at all the options and would like some help. I would like to replace the older demco with the newer DM9519292. Not set on a toe bar package but do like the RM-676 but would be open to recommendations. Could you recommend all necessary, adapters, permanent supplemental braking and all other accessories I would need to make this a complete package. I have spent hours looking and feel like I’m missing something thank you for your time
