Question:

Hi, I have a Roadmaster Sterling Tow hitch #013675. I would like to tow my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with it. What kind of mounting brackets would I need to use?? I do have pictures of the unit mounted to the back of the motorhome if that would help. If you could help that will be great. Thanks,

If you do not have aftermarket bumpers, winches, or guards on your 2015 Wrangler Unlimited, the base plates I recommend is the Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit, part # RM-521448-5.

These base plates will work great with your Sterling tow bar. This system features EZ5 brackets with drawbars that can easily be removed for an extremely clean look. These base plates do not fit the 10th Anniversary Rubicon or Call of Duty Edition Wrangler.

If you do not have safety cables I recommend part # RM-643.

For tow bar wiring I recommend the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles, part # HM56200. You simply plug this harness into the connection points behind the tail lights without having to cut or splice into the system.

Since most states now require a supplemental brake system I recommend the Blue Ox Patriot, part # BLU37TR. This is a wireless system that depresses the brake pedal in your Wrangler with the same intensity as your RV.
