Hey Steve, so between the hitches that fit your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Sahara the etrailer part # e98856 and the Curt # C13392 have the exact same dimensions, and the Draw Tite part # DT78MR is slightly different.
The only real difference is the length of the hitch tube. The Curt/etrailer sticks out a little further whereas the Draw Tite is a litte more recessed. From the end of the hitch tube to the first mounting flange the Draw Tite sticks out 6-1/2 inches whereas the Curt/etrailer has the dimension of 8-1/2 inches.
So if you wanted a hitch that would allow a bike rack to more easily clear the rear spare when installed go with the etrailer/Curt, but if you wanted something more recessed so maybe you wouldn't bang your shin on it then go with the Draw Tite.
