If you're flat towing your vehicle, it's best to go with a base plate and tow bar from the same manufacturer for the sake of easy compatibility. However, if you do decide to mix and match, you can use an adapter to connect your components.
To determine which adapter you need, choose your tow bar manufacturer and model below, then use the corresponding chart to figure out which adapter part number you need.

There's not an available 7-way to 4-pole flat umbilical like what you're looking for, but I do have some easy solutions for you. The Hopkins Nite-Glow 7-way to 5-way flat coiled adapter, part #HM47025 will work with either a 4-pole or a…

While it is possible to cut the 4-pole connector off of the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles #HM56302 and wire it into a 6-pole socket, you would be doing yourself an IMMENSE disservice using any kind of plug-in tow bar wiring…

I agree and it is available. The Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit #RM35GR is the same as the 521463-5. This is compatible with the bumper and winch on your 2024 Wrangler. They even made sure to show a picture of the bumper with the winch in…
