In order to flat-tow a 2017 Jeep Wrangler you need a base plate kit and a compatible tow bar. The base plate installs on the vehicle and the tow bar attaches to the base plate and motorhome. If you already have a tow bar that you need to find a compatible base plate kit for please let me know what brand you have. That said, it sounds like you don't have either therefore I recommend using the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit part # BX1126 with the Blue Ox Ascent Non-Binding Tow Bar part # BX4370.

The above is designed for the factory bumper, if you have a different one please let me know.

@Drew Assuming that your Jeep has the factory bumper, I'd recommend the Blue Ox # BX1126. You'll also need the # BX88310 adapter. There isn't an available adapter for your tow bar to work with Curt base plates.
