Flat towing your 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe will require a base plate, tow bar, safety chains, wiring, and supplemental braking system. I recommend the following:

-Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5

-Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-422

-RoadMaster 64" Double Hook, Straight Safety Cables # RM-646

-Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 (If your Jeep has the ParkSense Proximity Sensors)

-Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RM63MR (If your Jeep does not have the ParkSense Proximity Sensors)

-Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM23MR

-Demco Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # DM86VR

In addition to these parts you will need an extension so you have enough clearance with the camper in your 2023 F-350. I'm not sure how much clearance will be required, that is something you will have to measure. The extension also needs to be able to handle the 2024 Wrangler 4xe weight which appears to be 5,049-5,256 lbs assuming you have nothing else in it.

If 24" will do it you can use the Reese Hitch Box Extension and Reducer # RP45292. This has a capacity of 6,000 lbs. Using the full extension at 34" would cut you down to 4,500 lbs so it would not be able to handle the vehicle. Reese has a longer extension with the # RP45018 but the capacity tops out at 5,000 lbs so that won't work.

If 24" isn't enough then your only option would be to go the Torklift route. This will require installing the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum # TLF1008-30. The hitch allows you to use the Torklift extensions like the # TLE1548. This is 48" long with a max gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs.

I have attached some review and installation videos below for your reference.
