Yes, the Roadmaster Direct-Connect EZ-5 Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-5 that fits your 2016 Jeep Wrangler is compatible with the Roadmaster Nighthawk Tow Bar # RM-676.

The Nighthawk is a great choice because of how accommodating it is in terms of usability and function. It is designed to make aligning your Jeep and motorhome easy when connecting the tow bar and base plates and even has LED lights if you need to do this at night. The Nighthawk also comes with integrated safety cables with hooks that will never get tangled due to the tow bar's included cable guides.

I have added links to a couple video reviews of this tow bar for you to check out as well.
