Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-5 would not be a fit for your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL so you would instead need to the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 instead.
To transfer your Demco Air Force One Braking System # SM99243 over you would need the second vehicle kit # SM99209. This will have all of the vehicle side components since you'll still have the motorhome components already. The brake light switch wire in your new Wrangler isn't useable so the indicator light for this system will require you to also install the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751490.
For your traffic signals you'll want to pick up the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-152 and 6-pole socket # RM-910030-7 since you already have a cable with your Nighthawk tow bar.
