Can I Install Both a Flat Towing Wiring Harness and a 4-Way Connector on a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK?
Question:
I have a 2018 Wrangler JK with the Hopkins HM56200 towed vehicle installed. My jeep did not have a factory trailer tow package and I want to add that. Can I use this harness in concert with the Hopkins to get trailer wiring in this jeep?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, so long as you don't try to use both of them at the same time. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C55124 will work as a 4-flat connector and plugs into your Jeep's existing wiring. If you try to flat tow your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK with say a bike rack on the back or a cargo carrier that has lights on it then the 4-flat connector will not work, only the Hopkins item # HM56200.
The Curt item # C55124 is confirmed to fit the 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK's without the towing package. I have linked an installation video below.
I recommend using the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the 4-way connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road.
