Expert Reply:

I checked with Curt and the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C97JR and item # C96NR are identical as far as your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L goes. The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C96NR is a newer design that fits a couple of different Jeep models.

I recommend going with the more cost effective option because there is no difference in the capacity or installation of these two hitches on your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L.

I have linked an installation video below.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C59236 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
