Yes, the Blue Ox Patriot Radio Frequency, Portable Braking System - Proportional item # BLU37TR is available and confirmed to work with your 2021 Jeep Gladiator. This proportional system provides precise, responsive braking for your Jeep. It responds to the deceleration of your RV to activate your Jeep's brake pedal with matching intensity.

You will want to use the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit item # RM-751497 with this system. This kit allows your RV's monitoring system to alert you whenever the brake pedal of your Jeep is being applied. Other systems operate according to whether the air cylinder is extended and provide no indication of what is happening with the pedal itself. If your supplemental braking system is improperly installed, it may be continuously pressing on the pedal. This would keep it from fully retracting and possibly causing damage to your Jeep's tires and braking system. With Roadmaster's Stop Light Switch Kit, you will always know when the brake is being depressed, and you will avoid costly damage.

Other parts you will need to flat tow your 2021 Jeep Gladiator are:

etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e98948

etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar item # e94ZR

Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 4-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15247
