Hey Randy, so the easiest to install tow bar lighting kit that fits your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the Curt part # C96JR which plugs inline with your vehicle taillight connectors so it doesn't require any splicing. This uses a 4-way connector, would that work for you or do you need a different style connector to attach to your tow vehicle.
For braking the Demco Stay in Play part # SM99251 is the best option as we've found it is the easiest to install and most reliable.
Then to run a charge cable you'd just need the part # RM-156-25.
