Expert Reply:

Yes, to flat tow your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon JLU you'll need the following components:

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

Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e74ZR. This tow bar comes with safety cables bracketed to the arms so you won't have to purchase them separately or worry about them dragging on the ground. The head and shank offer a bit of adjustability to help keep it level between the motorhome and Jeep.

Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. This diode wiring kit will splice into your Wrangler's tail light wiring and display your motorhome's traffic signals through the tail lights.

Braking System: Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251. This braking system is a one-time installation and will install in both the cab and engine compartment for a more hidden look.

Because your brake light switch wire isn't useable you'll also need the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751490 in order to get the signal for the # SM99251 indicator light.
