You're right, the mounting bracket is unique (in a good way) for the Curt TriFlex NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C24VV.
The bracket is smaller and all you do is put the included adhesive tape on the bracket and stick it wherever you like under your dash. Screws are also included and you can use them with the adhesive to mount the bracket under your dash. Then you'll simply slide in the TriFlex NEXT controller and that's it.
This type of bracket takes up less space than the normal U-shaped... view full answer...
Hi Carl; the saddle attachment on the Power Mountain Tallboy Off-Road Bottle Jack # PM34FR is 3-1/4" wide at the base of it before the sides flare out. What will you be using the jack for? view full answer...
Hey Christian, welcome to the world of RV-ing! So in addition to the Roadmaster Nighthawk # RM-676 you're also goin to need:
- A baseplate kit, like the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5. These attach to the Jeep itself so you can hook up the tow bars.
- A braking system, like the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes # SM99251 with the stop light switch # RM-751490. This braking system is a bit more involved set-up wise, but once... view full answer...
Both the Roadmaster and Blue Ox tow bars are great options. But if it was my decision to make I would go with the Blue Ox Avail part # BX7420 as we have found that the Blue Ox tow bars are a little easier to connect and disconnect from. Also this tow bar has a 10,000 lb weight capacity so it would easily cover basically anything. The Avail has longer arms too which helps the vehicle track a little better as well. view full answer...
Yes, it will! You'll want to cut off the 4-way connector of the Curt Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles item # C96JR and install the 6-way connector that comes with the Curt Tow Bar 7-Way to 6-Way Coiled Adapter Cord w/ 6-Way Socket item # C59HR.
With the 6-way installed you can use the included cord to connect it with the 7-Way on your RV. The center pin on the 6-way is wired for 12V power so this is where you'll want to connect your RVi Brake towed battery charger.

Hi Joe; just like the Curt # C96NR, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT42GR does not allow for a 20" spare tire. However, we do have the Blue Ox Trailer Hitch Receiver # BLU46HR. I just reached out to Blue Ox and they said it will accommodate the larger spare. This fits the 2021-2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee L so you can install it on your 2021 Summit L.
Are you going to use the hitch for towing? If so, you will also need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C27BR.... view full answer...
Thanks for that photo, and since you have a bumper with D-ring attachments, you would not need base plates; in fact, base plates wouldn't be able to be installed, so instead you would need a bumper adapter that attaches to the D-ring attachments.
Your bumper does need to be rated for flat towing so you'll need to check with the manufacturer to ensure that if you're not certain, but if it is, and if the bumper has a 1" or 7/8" pin hole and the tab is 3/4", 7/8", or 1" then what you will... view full answer...
Hi Ken,
Starting with the wiring harness, I can verify for you the correct fit for the 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited without a tow package is indeed the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118786.
Then for the hitches, the biggest difference between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13392 and Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT78MR is the length of the receiver.
The Draw-Tite has a shorter receiver that can make it a bit more of a pain to add a ball mount... view full answer...
Hey Anthony thanks for stopping by! The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HLY84FR will work fine with your step thru bikes, but you're also going to need an adapter bar # HRBA-PRO.
If you're not sold on the Sport Rider SE, then I'd suggest going with the Hollywood Racks RV Rider # HLY64FR. This rack is very similar to the SportRider SE but does not require the adapter bar for step thru bikes.
Both racks can handle the exact same size bikes, so whichever you choose you'll be set! If there... view full answer...
Hey Craig, thanks for reaching out!
The Yakima SmarT-Slot Mounting Kit # Y25AV is only compatible with the newer Yakima roof cargo boxes so you unfortunately won't be able to utilize it with the older RocketBox design.
If you're needing to replace the mounting clamp for your older RocketBox then the SkyBox Replacement Mounting Clamp # Y62XR will actually work, according to Yakima.
Other than that we're looking at getting you a whole new box. If this is the case just let me know what... view full answer...
Hey James, welcome back! The only plug and play wiring harness I have for flat towing is the Curt Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles item # C96JR. This has a 4-way connector that plugs into your motorhome. This plug and play harness connects directly to your 2024 Jeep Wrangler Sport behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights.
Please note that if you have a 4-way trailer connector like item # 56407 you won't be able to use it will you're flat towing your Jeep.... view full answer...
For your 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler, I recommend the Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit #RM-521453-5. This base plate kit is confirmed to fit your Jeep with the factory bumper and will work perfectly with your existing Falcon 2 Tow Bar. When installing the base plates, you will likely need to trim some fascia to allow enough room for the receivers (see attached pictures).
I have attached the complete installation instructions that you can also look through.

Hey Dellos, the Blue Ox base plate and tow bars are in my opinion the easiest to use and are also very well made so I would recommend the Blue Ox part # BX1139 with the tow bar part # BX7420.
Then for lighting the Curt kit part # C96JR is a very simple install so that would be a great choice as well.
And finally, most states now require supplemental braking in the vehicle being flat towed. The easiest system to set up and use is the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR, that applies the vehicle... view full answer...

Hey Steve, thanks for reaching out again!
Hopkins doesn't have any exceptions for their Wiring Kit # HM39VR which normally means it's compatible, but even though this is easier to install than a lot of the other options, from my experience I try to shy away from most of the Hopkins wiring solutions because they just simply aren't super reliable.

Hey Ed! It looks like you put together a great list of parts. I'm going to list everything out here with links so it is all in one place, including my suggestions. For a complete setup you will need the following:

-etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR (includes safety cables)
-Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-15267 (If you do not have ParkSense)

Hey Jim. The Curt Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles item # C96JR is indeed compatible with the LED lights on your 2025 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. It plugs into your factory wiring harness behind the tail lights. The only issue would be if your Jeep has the ParkSense proximity sensors.
If your Jeep has the ParkSense feature you'll need the Roadmaster Smart Diode Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights item # RM47ZR.

Hi Arthur,
I took a look at your list of parts to flat tow your 2026 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and it looks like you have almost everything you need! For the Blue Ox Patriot Supplemental Braking System part # BLU37TR, it plugs directly into a 12V outlet to power it, so you'll need to install one in your vehicle. Jeeps don't come with a 12V outlet, so I recommend the Roadmaster 12V Outlet Kit part # RM-9332 which runs to the Jeep's battery to provide power to your braking system.

In order to flat tow your Jeep Liberty behind an RV/motorhome, you need a base plate kit, a tow bar, safety cables, a lighting solution, a supplemental braking system, and likely a high-low adapter.
Starting with the base plate kit, I recommend the Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit # RM-521423-5. These base plates are custom fit for your Jeep and feature a hidden bracket design for a clean look when you aren't towing.
