1998 Jeep Questions and Answers

• Will the Yakima RocketBox Pro 11 Cargo Box Fit on a 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport
  
• The Yakima RocketBox Pro 11 Cargo Box, # Y07193, will fit on your 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport if you have a Yakima roof rack. According to Yakima, the RocketBox cargo boxes will not fit on the factory roof rack of the Jeep Cherokee. There are a few different Yakima roof racks that will fit on your Jeep, but choosing the correct rack will depend on what you currently have on your roof. If you have the factory roof tracks that run front to back, you can use the Yakima Control Tower Roof Rack. This

• Base Plate Kit Recommendation for a 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport Automatic and a Remco Tow Bar
  
• Based on my research, your Remco tow bar should be compatible with all Blue Ox base plates, so for your 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport, I would recommend the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, # BX1118. I would also recommend verifying that your tow bar is compatible with Blue Ox base plates. This base plate kit is compatible with the U-channel or double tube bumper. Before you install a base plate kit, I recommend checking your vehicle owners manual for flat tow compatibility. There may be certain restricti

• Replacement Side View Mirrors and Doors for a 1998 Jeep Wrangler SE
  
• The Bestop 2-Piece Soft Doors, # B5178915, will fit on your 1998 Jeep Wrangler SE, but the replacement mirrors, # B5126201, that you referenced are not designed to fit on the 2-piece soft doors. Instead, you will want the Bestop Replacement Mirrors, # B5126101, and mounting bracket, # B5125801. The doors, mirrors and mounting brackets will include all necessary installation hardware and I have attached a link to the installation instructions for the door for you to check out.

• Which Bestop Replace-A-Top for 1998 Jeep Wrangler
  
• Both the # B5112415 and the # 5112115 would fit your 1998 TJ. The B5112415 provides tinted side and rear windows, but the half door skins are not tinted. The B5112115 come with un-tinted windows. Other than the window tint, the tops are identical.

• Will the Bestop Upper Door Sliders Work with a Hard Top on a 1998 Jeep Wrangler.
  
• The Bestop Upper Door Sliders, # B5178715, will work with the hard top on your 1998 Jeep Wrangler. The only issue that you may run into when using these upper door sliders with a hard top is that the seals do not completely line up when used with a hard top. They were specifically designed to work with soft tops, but they will shut without issue and perform all other functions normally.

• What is the Difficulty Level for Installing the Curt Trailer Hitch on a 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  
• We do have an installation video of our Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch being installed on a 1997 Jeep Cherokee, but at this time I do not have a video of the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, # 13160, being installed on a 1998 Jeep Cherokee. The vehicle and hitch in our video are slightly different, but the installation process will be the exact same as your Curt hitch and 1998 Jeep Cherokee. The estimated install time for the Curt trailer hitch, # 13160, is a time that the manufacturer feels it wil

• Will Thule Replacement Mounting Plate # 753-3532 Fit an Older Thule Spare Tire Bike Rack
  
• I spoke with my contact at Thule and she said the part # 5155168 is a part number for a decal, not for a bike rack. She did say that if your Thule spare tire bike rack has a silver frame, like the Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Carrier, part # TH963PRO, then the Thule Replacement Mounting Plate, part # 753-3532 will work. If the spare tire bike rack has a black frame, the # 753-3532 will not work. They do not have replacement parts for the spare tire bike rack that is black, because it is an older de

• Trailer Connector for 1998 Jeep Wrangler for Flexibility in Towing Multiple Trailers
  
• The Hopkins Multi Tow Harness you referenced, part # 42615 will allow you to tow any trailer equipped with a 4-pole trailer connector. An adapter like part # 37185 would plug into the 4-pole, retain its function, and allow you to tow a trailer equipped with a 7-way connector. The adapter would plug into the existing 4-pole (once you install it). The adapter has 4 wires exiting it that might or might not need to be connected, depending on the trailers you are wanting to tow. The white ground wire

• What Parts are Needed to Flat Tow a 1998 Jeep Wrangler
  
• There are actually 5 components you will need to flat tow a vehicle: base plates, tow bar, safety cables, lighting, supplemental braking. The first thing to do would be to consult the vehicle owners manual to determine if it can be flat towed. For base plates, you can use the Roadmaster XL base plates, # 1424-1. These are XL style base plates with draw bars that can be removed. The Tracker tow bar, # RM-020, is compatible but to allow the XL draw bar arms to be removed when using this tow bar

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 1998 Jeep Wrangler
  
• You would normally see leaf spring suspension at the rear of a vehicle. If your 1998 Jeep Wrangler has front leaf springs then the base plates # 1424-1 will not fit. In terms of right hand drive, it means if the steering wheel is on the right hand side of the car, like you would see in the U.S. in some mail delivery vehicles or like they are in the UK, then these base plates will not fit. In addition to base plates, you will also need a tow bar, safety chains, lighting, and supplemental braki

• Can Base Plates for Flat Towing be Installed on a 1998 Jeep Wrangler with Aftermarket Bumper
  
• In order to flat tow any vehicle, including a 1998 Jeep Wrangler, you will need to have base plates installed because they create a safe and secure connection for use with a tow bar to flat tow a vehicle. The base plates for the Jeep (see link) are designed for installation on stock vehicles and I cannot guarantee that they will fit with an aftermarket bumper on like # B4291701. To choose the correct base plates you will need to go by the stock bumper. There are base plates for Jeeps with the

• Replacement Soft Top Recommendations for a 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport
  
• We have several styles of soft top replacements for your 1998 Jeep Wrangle Sport. The Bestop Trektop, # B5680115, would be my first choice because it does not require a bow system for installation and it has tinted windows to keep the sun from heating and decaying the Jeep interior so rapidly. Doors sold separately. Next, we have the Bestop Supertop, # B5471315, which includes 2-Piece soft doors, tinted windows, support bars, hardware and Belt-Rail system. Another top we have is the Bestop

• To get a 4-Way connector at the rear of your 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee you will need to install the Tow Ready T-One Wiring Harness, part # 118349. This wiring harness will connect inline to the plugs located behind the Jeeps tail lights.

• Can a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Be Flat Towed Behind a Motorhome Without Special Equipment
  
• I checked on the 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee and found that as long as the vehicle has selectable 4 wheel drive with a neutral position in the transfer case is towable as is. If the vehicle is rear wheel drive only, and has the 42RLE transmission a transmission lube pump is required. If the vehicle has an auto transmission other than the 42RLE the vehicle is not towable and will need to be trailered. If the vehicle is AWD without a nuetral position in the transfer case it is trailer only

• You can use a fairing with the Thule crossbars on your 1998 Jeep Cherokee. You will want to measure the distance between the feet where they attach to the bar to get the correct size. We have several lengths available like the 52 inch # TH873XT. I have included a link to the installation details for you to view. The fairings are adjustable to get just the right position on your vehicle. I have included a link to a video demo of the Thule fairings for you also.

• Mounting Options For a OEM-Style Driving Light Kit # QH-16CT on a 1998 Jeep Cherokee

• The recommended roof rack for your 1998 Jeep Wrangler is the Thule Roof Rack, part # TH300, THLB58. This rack is designed to work on hard top 1998 Jeep Wranglers and would work very well for you. I spoke with my contact at Thule about whether or not you could use the Thule Gutter Feet, 8 inch High, part # TH387, and she told me that it has never been tested and she could not safely recommend it for your Jeep.

However, you will most likely need to use spacers as well. We have 1 inch spacers, # A25723-90AH00. I would recommend using the front kit, # TJFC01, if you plan on carrying a plow on the front or doing some winching, or if you are looking for more stability at the front of the Jeep. I have included
