Question:
I understand that I can flat tow this vehicle as it is 4wd if it has the 2 speed transfer unit. I think all Trailhawks do. What parts do I need to tow it behind my Motorhome. Also, I have heard mention about a factory wire harness for towing to stop the steering wable. Do I still need one on a 2020 or have they corrected it. Please let me know. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
In order to flat-tow a 2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk you'll need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, wiring harness, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a few other things. I will list my recommendations for each of these below.
etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit part # e98951
etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar part # e34ZR
Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles part # RM-152-98146-7
Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR
The Mopar Flat-Tow Wiring Harness is no longer required.
