Question:
What all do you recommend for a tow package on a 2004 Jeep Wrangler X 4x4 2dr? I will be pulling an 18ft low boy trailer ...my Jeep does have a lift and big wide tires if that makes a difference.

Helpful Expert Reply:
First thing you need is a trailer hitch. For that the # 13408 that you referenced would be a great choice as it is our most popular option with other Wrangler owners. I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
Next thing you need is trailer wiring. For that the part # 118409 is a confirmed fit that will give you a 4-way for trailer lighting.
Since you have a lift kit that makes things a bit more interesting for picking out a ball mount. The best option I can give you without knowing more is an adjustable ball mount like the part # C45900 which can adjust down to 6 inches of drop. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
