I tried reaching out to Nilight to both verify their front bumper for your 2015 Jeep Wrangler JK is both safe for flat towing and the dimensions of the tabs. They could not provide me with either so you will want to first verify if your bumper is safe for flat towing and the dimensions of the mounting tabs. We have the 1" Wide # RM-035-1 and 3/4" Wide # RM-035 adapters which are designed to replace the ends on the Roadmaster tow bars like the Nighthawk # RM-676. Both the adapters above will fit either 7/8" or 1" pin holes on the mounting tabs.
The Roadmaster Accessory Kit # RM-9284-2, Wiring # HM56200, and Charge Line # RM-156-25 will contain the parts and wiring needed to protect your tow bar and utilize your tail lights to operate off your motorhome. Depending on if your motorhome as either Air Brakes # DM26VR or Hydraulic Brakes # DM86VR will decide which supplemental brake system is best for your Jeep.
You will want to measure the height of your receiver and compare it to the mounting tabs on the front of your Jeep. The tow bars need to be within 3" of level to reduce wear and tear on the tow bars. If they are not within 3" of level you will need one of the High-Low Adapters listed below.
4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-4
6" Rise/Drop # RM-048-6
8" Rise/Drop # RM-048-8
10-1/4" Rise/Drop # RM-048-10
