Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver to Fit 2017 Jeep Wrangler

Updated 05/09/2017 | Published 05/08/2017

Question:

I saw a QandA regarding the difference between the 65055 and 65069. You referenced using the 65069 with a 2015 Jeep. How about going the other way, 2017 jeep with a 65055?

The front mount hitch receiver # 65069 was designed later and therefore can back fit older models of the Wrangler. So it fits Wranglers from 2007 to 2017. However, since the discontinued hitch # 65055 had already been designed it only fits up through the 2011 Wrangler and will not fit the 2017.

The # 65069 has a more universal design to fit the larger range of model years.
