Expert Reply:

According to Roadmaster, the average installation time for the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5 that fits your 2020 Jeep Wrangler is about three hours. That could depend on the experience though, so if it is a first-time installer that hasn't done it much, it wouldn't be surprising for the install time to go past that into the five hour territory or so. Anything in that time frame would be appropriate for a professional installation.

If you do need other parts in order to flat tow your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, here is what else you need to add along with the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5.

- Tow Bar: Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267
- Supplemental Braking System: Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251
OR
- For a motorhome with air brakes: Air Force One Supplemental Braking System for Motorhomes with Air Brakes # SM99243

You may also need a high-low adapter in order to keep your 2020 Wrangler Unlimited level, and I've added a link to a help article which shows you how to determine if you need an adapter, as well as a link to our selection of adapters. Additionally, I have added links to instruction manuals, video reviews and installations for you to take a look at.
