Expert Reply:

You will need at least 5 main parts to flat tow your 2022 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon with factory bumper behind your motorhome. Those parts being a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, tow bar wiring and a supplemental braking system. I have included an option that fits your Gladiator for each below.

Base Plate Kit: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5

Tow Bar: Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 (this tow bar includes the safety cables)

Tow Bar Wiring: Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154

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

You may also need a high-low adapter. I have included a help article that goes over how to determine this and I have linked our selection of high-low adapters, so you can choose the correct one if one is needed.

You will also want to consult the owners manual of your Jeep to ensure you are doing everything that is recommended/required for flat towing your Gladiator.
