Recommended Complete Flat Towing Setup for a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Steel OEM Bumper winch and winch plate installed. Wanting to flat tow behind 2006 Golf Stream Independence. I already have an older brake buddy. I need the plates, tow bar, lights, emergency brake away system and safety cables? Am I missing something? Can you put together a package? I would image the same plates are compatible with a 2020 Jeep Gladiator as well? Im looking for a clean install of the plates that are mostly hidden when not in use. Thanks Robert Bassett

Hey Robert, so for base plates that are going to be compatible with both your Gladiator and your Wrangler I'd recommend going with the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-521453-5.
These are going to be direct connect base plates that will work great with a tow bar like the Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain Tow Bar w/ LED Lights # RM-676. This tow bar also includes the safety cables needed as well.
The last thing you'll need, along with your braking kit is a wiring harness # RM-15267 which will provide your toad with your RV's tail, brake, and turn signal lights.
Also, if you're needing a replacement breakaway switch for your older Brake Buddy, let me know what Brake Buddy you have and I'd be happy to see what we have.
