Gonna buy a class III trailer hitch for my 2020 Jeep Cherokee. Easy to find on your page. However, I am having trouble finding the correct wiring kit. Please help.

Hey Gary, for trailer wiring for your 2020 Jeep Cherokee I would recommend the Tekonsha kit part # 118779 because of how easy it is to install and how reliable the converter box is. Sorry it was difficult to find! Which hitch are you going with?

Plan to purchase e73ZR trailer hitch for my 2020 Jeep Cherokee...right? The wiring kit you recommended appears to be electric. I do not want electronic brakes and I want a 7 point connection. Not a 4 point. Please respond. Gary...

@Gary The etrailer hitch part # e73ZR is correct fit for your 2020 Jeep Cherokee and a great option. To end up with a 7-way on your Cherokee you would want to start with the # 118779 and then convert it to a 7-way with the part # 37185 as there isn't a direct 7-way kit that fits your Cherokee. You said you didn't want electric though which I am not totally sure what you meant by that though.

@JamesonC I don't want a wiring kit for electric brakes. Gary...

@Gary The # 37185 is just a 4-way to 7-way adapter and does not come with anything for activating trailer brakes aside from a wire you don't have to connect to anything.
