Question:

I’ve got a 2022 Jeep Gladiator with a flat floorboard, no seat pan. Will the Curt RVi4 still work for me?

Great question, John. The Curt # RVi44FR is designed to push against the seat pan for proper operation, but if your Gladiator has a totally flat floorboard, you’ll want to use the included Phantom Bracket to create a secure backing. It installs under the seat and gives the unit the push surface it needs for consistent braking. Check the Phantom Bracket instructions in the box before setup, super helpful if your truck doesn’t have a built-in rise in the floor.

Let me know how you like this system. It's brand new for 2025 and is a really innovative and reliable setup!
