Question:

Which hitch would you recommend for my 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee? I will be towing a camper and I'm not sure what would be the absolute best choice.

Expert Reply:

The hitch I recommend for your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee is the Draw Tite part # 75699 because it's a 2 inch size which is the most common size (most accessories are made for this size), has the best capacities, installs easily, and because only the hitch opening hangs below the bumper which gives it a very concealed look.

For trailer wiring I'd then recommend the Tekonsha kit part # 118727 because it installs without splicing and because it has the most reliable converter box of the kits we offer.

Since you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
