You'll want to use a silicone lubricant for your etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates #e74ZR. I recommend using the Roadmaster LubeMaster Dry Silicone Spray Item #RM-747 for this application.

Roadmaster has D-Ring adapters for their base plate kits like with the #RM-035 for a 3/4 inch thick D-ring, part #RM65FR for a 1 inch D-ring adapter that is extended or the part #RM-035-1 for a 1 inch thick D-ring standard length. This would work…

The issues you're seeing won't be caused by not adding a relay to the wiring when you installed the #HM56202 and Brake Buddy Stealth #HM39530 and since you've already checked all of your ground wires I recommend moving on the the #HM56202…

Installing the Hopkins kit part #HM56202 in your 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ would not require you to also install diodes. The Trailermate tow bar wiring kits are notorious for needing additional diodes installed in them but the Hopkins kits do not have…
