Question:
Can this Roadmaster towbar bracket 521453-5 coexist with one of your front receiver hitches below on a 2024 Jeep Wrangler JLU non-Rubicon, all stock? I cant tell from the pictures and QandA on all items to determine if they might use the same mounting points. Thanks. 65079 or C31086

Hello Adam; the # 65079 and # C31086 mount in the same location and use some of the same holes as the Roadmaster # RM-521453-5. Unfortunately, this means they are not compatible. None of the standard base plates will allow for a front hitch installation at the same time.
If that is the setup you're looking for I would see if there is an aftermarket bumper with D-Ring attachments that is rated for flat towing. Then check to see if it is compatible with a front hitch. Assuming it is, you can use the Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts to Roadmaster Motor Home Mount Tow Bars - 1" Thick # RM-035-1 to mount your tow bar.
