Expert Reply:

Hey Craig. The template for the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item # e98948 is included with the installation instructions I have linked below. I've also attached a screenshot. This baseplate is custom fit for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with the factory plastic bumper. If you have the factory steel bumper you'll need our etrailer item # e44FV.

Here are the rest of the parts you'll need to flat tow a 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited:

Tow Bar - etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs item # e34ZR

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267

Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes. You will also need the Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit item # RM-751490 to ensure that your supplemental braking system is properly positioned and working effectively.

High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.

What kind of motorhome do you have?
