Complete Flat Towing Setup for a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
2021 Jeep Wrangler JLU I’m looking to get a tow bar for flat tow. Either Blue Ox or roadmaster. Also looking for the mount and wiring harness for both brands

Hey Brent, so I recommend going with Roadmaster for the majority of your setup. Both brands are great and will ultimately get the job done, but Roadmaster has become a very trusted brand in the industry and has a very good track record which is why I'd recommend them over Blue Ox.
So with that being said, for a set of tow bars I recommend checking out the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar w/ LED Lights # RM-676.
This tow bar has a nice 8K capacity, an integrated LED strip for easy hookup in low light conditions, and will work great with any Roadmaster direct connect base plates like the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5.
The last things you're going to need is a braking system # RM-9060 using the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751490 & the RoadMaster BrakeMaster Custom Seat Adapter # RM69FR, and a wiring kit # RM-2120.
