Hi Tony, thanks for writing in and yes, we can 100% get your 2023 Jeep Wrangler set up to be flat towed behind your Holiday Rambler motorhome. To make it easy to order I'll go ahead and list everything out for you.
- Base Plate Kit: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5
- Tow Bar: Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-152 OR Wiring Kit with Smart Diodes # RM47ZR (See below explanation to ensure correct kit)
- Supplemental Braking System: Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251
- Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Wire Kit for Demco Supplemental Braking Systems # DM66VR
Starting with the wiring kit, the right one for your 2023 Wrangler is going to depend on if the Jeep has the optional ParkSense feature. This is a feature that gives you an audible signal to help make sure you don't contact anything as you back up. If you aren't sure, check out the sticker on your Jeep or you can always call the dealer with the VIN and ask.
For the rest of the set up, the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plates are a fit, and will work together with the Nighthawk tow bar. The Nighthawk is easily the best tow bar you can get because of its aluminum body which makes it lighter than other tow bars, and long 52" reach which allows your Jeep to track better behind your motorhome than bars with shorter arms.
The Nighthawk even includes both safety cables and an electrical cord so you don't have to buy those separately. As for the braking system, the Stay-IN-Play DUO is easily the best because it gives you braking proportional to that of your motorhome. So when you hit the brakes on your Rambler, your Jeep will get the same amount of braking power, resulting in much smoother braking than other systems. The battery charge line is also needed to ensure your Jepe's battery is charged at all times, even on long journeys.
Finally, to protect your Jeep from rocks and other debris hitting it while you are flat towing, I do highly recommend a rock guard, the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750.

Hi Kyle. Thank you for a very detailed answer! I looked at the jeep sticker and it says "Park View" but I don't see "Park Sense" anywhere.
