Expert Reply:

We do have all the parts needed in order for you to flat tow your 2000 Jeep Wrangler, which are a base plate, tow bar, safety cables, wiring, and braking system. I'll go ahead and list out all the parts you need to make it easy to order.

- Base Plate Kit: etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98946

- Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR

- Wiring Kit: 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267

- Supplemental Braking System: Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39494

- Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-88400

The etrailer base plates are great because they don't have arms that are going to protrude from your Jeep, which means it is going to keep its clean look when you aren't flat towing. It is also the best value along with the SD tow bar, which has long arms that make it easier to maneuver when towing, along with integrated safety cables so you don't have to purchase those separately.

The Hopkins wiring kit is the easiest to install in your Jeep and will provide the lighting functions needed, while the Brake Buddy system is easy to start up, and the fact it's portable means you can use it in other vehicles as well should you ever change cars. The Brake-Lite relay is also needed for your Jeep in order to prevent its brake signal from overriding the turn signal from the RV when applying your brakes as you turn.
