Yes, this RoadMaster Tracker Tow Bar, part # RM-020, will work to flat tow your 2011 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited 4 door.
You will also need the following products as well to complete your setup:
Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit, part # 1432-1. This will provide the attachment point for the tow bars on your Wrangler.
Roadmaster Tow Bar Quick Disconnect Kit, part # RM-201. This will give you a quick way to connect and disconnect your Wrangler from the tow bars.
RoadMaster 68 inch Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables, part # RM-643. This will provide you with additional safety when flat towing in case your Wrangler became disconnected while you were towing it. In most cases it is required by law for you to have safety cables if you are flat-towing a vehicle.
For lighting you have a couple options. For a less permanent, temporary solution I would recommend that you get a Magnetic Towing Light Kit, part # C-ATL20A.
If want something more permanent I would recommend a Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit, part # RM-154. I attached installation instructions for this product as well as a link to an FAQ page on picking the right wiring kit for your vehicle.
Some states require that you have a supplemental braking system for the towed vehicle. For that I would recommend a Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Proportional Braking System, part # RM-9400.
You will need to check with the manufacturer for instructions on the proper procedure for towing the vehicle. Some vehicles must be equipped with a transmission lube pump, an axle disconnect, drive line disconnect or free-wheeling hubs before they can be towed.
