Expert Reply:

I would be happy to recommend the parts you will need to flat tow your 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit behind your 2012 Alegro bus. I looked up your vehicle and you will not need the Mopar Flat Tow Wiring Harness 82216418AA.

Additionally, we do not sell Brute Towbars so I can't recommend one of them but I have listed the adapter you will need to connect one to a Roadmaster baseplate. The rest of the parts you requested are listed below.

Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Crossbar Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # RM-521440-4 and the Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapter item # RM-032 to connect to a Brute Readybrake Elite 2 tow bar.

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267

Charge Line - Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles item # RM-156-25

Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes.

High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.

If you decide not to go with the Brute tow bar then I recommend using the following tow bar, safety chains, and base plate for your Jeep:

Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643

Base Plate Kit - Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms item # RM-521440-5
