In order to use your Brake Buddy 2 on your 2008 Jeep Wrangler, you will likely just need the replacement breakaway system, replacement dash mount connector, and wiring kit for the 7 pin plug. For the breakaway kit, use Replacement Breakaway System # HM39340. This will ensure that the Jeep's brakes will activate if it ever becomes disconnected from the motorhome. For the dash mount connector, use Replacement Dash Mount Connector # HM39342. This will give you the connection inside the jeep for the Brake Buddy to connect to.
Last but not least, use the Road Master Towed Car 4 Diodes RV Plug # RM-15267 for the 7 pin wiring kit. The coil wire will connect to your motorhome 7 pin connector, then plug into the connector that will mount to the front of your jeep. The taillight harness will tap into the taillight housing on your jeep, therefore illuminating your jeep's brake and turn signals in correlation to the motorhome.
I have attached demonstration videos that will help you out with getting everything setup on your Jeep Wrangler, and further explain the parts mentioned.
