Question:
Looking for a full set up to tow my 2026 Wrangler behind my motorhome. Prefer Blue Ox for the attachment, then whatever else you think is best for the rest. I have a plastic bumper, I think that is everything you will need to know? Thanks.

Hey Henry! I would be happy to help you get your 2026 Jeep Wrangler ready for flat towing. You will need the tow bar, base plate, safety cables, wiring, and a supplemental brake system. I recommend the following:
-Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1139
-Blue Ox Avail Non-Binding Tow Bar # BLU28QV (includes safety cables, add # BLU53QV for cover)
-Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-15267 (if you DO NOT have ParkSense)
-Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RM63MR (if you DO have ParkSense)
-Curt RVi Series Shadow 2 Flat Tow Brake System # RVI94FR (includes battery charge line)
The Shadow 2 is a permanent installation. If you prefer a portable brake system I recommend the Curt RVi Series 4 # RVI44FR along with the TBC+ # RVI74FR. If you don't have a 12V outlet to power a portable brake system you will also need the 12 Volt Outlet Kit # RM-9332.
You may also need a high-low adapter like the # e25ZV to keep your setup level. I went ahead and attached an article below which explains how to measure and choose the right adapter. The bracket height on the Blue Ox base plate is 18" so you will only need to measure your motorhome hitch height to find the difference.
Any big trips planned once you get your Wrangler all set up?

Thanks, looks like everything I need here. Haven't decided where we're headed next, sitting somewhere warm for now until winter is over. I appreciate your help with this!
