Question:
Hello - Recent arrival to the US and weve brought our Euro spec Thule Tow hitch mounted bike rack with us. Ive seen on your site that EH53C-C would work to attach the bike rack - but what mount do i need to attach that to my 2018 Grand Cherokee with the towing pack. Also, is it possible to get a lock mechanism for the hitch to the car itself. Thank you

I would be happy to help!
The 50mm Hitch Ball # EH53C-C will work for your European spec Thule Bike Rack and can be attached to your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee using the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount # AMSC2.
To secure the ball mount to your vehicle I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98882 due to its stainless steel construction keeping it from corroding over time.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
