For your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT42GR. This Class IV hitch has a 2" receiver and a max gross trailer weight of 7,500 lbs. The hitch has a bolt-on installation and will be completely hidden with the bumper panel in place just like the OEM hitch. It also comes with a limited lifetime warranty.

The most reliable wiring harness is the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK39VR. This plugs into the connection points behind your tail lights. Once installed, you will have a 4-way to power your trailer's signal lights. If you need a ball mount, check out the etrailer Ball Mount # e67DR.

Since both hitches are rated for higher than the capacity of your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee the capacity really isn't as important of a factor. The smaller factors like the length of the receiver tube and how the safety chain loops sit would be…

The Curt hitch part #C96NR and the Draw Tite hitch part #DT42GR both fit the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L model that has the third row seating. Since the Draw Tite has higher towing capacities and has a trailer wiring mounting bracket built into it…

No, we do not. There are two aftermarket hitches for the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L and neither one of them will allow a 20" spare tire to be mounted once installed. They are the Curt item #C96NR and the Draw-Tite item #DT42GR. Please note that…

Answer 8

Hey Mike, We offer two hitches for the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L that will be hidden behind the removable panel, but neither will allow for a spare tire over 18". There's the Draw-Tite #DT42GR and Curt #C96NR available. Of the two I prefer…

Answer 9

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

According to Blue Ox, it'll take an experienced installer about 4 to 5 hours to complete the installation of their #BX1128 Base Plate Kit on a 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The install isn't what I'd call super-difficult, but the installation…
