Helpful Expert Reply:
To flat tow your 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL behind your Class A motorhome with air brakes you will need the following parts:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520 and item # RM-643
Base Plate Kit - Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts 1" Thick item # RM-035-1 or for 3/4" Thick D-Rings item # RM-035
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Supplemental Braking System - Demco Air Force One Supplemental Braking System for Motor Homes with Air Brakes item # SM99243
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
I have linked several installation videos below that I recommend taking a look at so you can see this parts being set up and used.
