Hi! Yes, the etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit, Part # e74KV, is a fit for your 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit. To use it with your Roadmaster Nighthawk tow bar part # RM-676, you'll also need the etrailer Base Plate Adapter, Part # e98984, which allows the Nighthawk to connect to the etrailer base plate.
I really like the etrailer base plate because it gives you a lot of value for the money. The removable arms keep the front of your Jeep looking clean when you're not towing, and when it's time to hook up, you simply insert the arms, twist them into place, and secure them. It's a quick, straightforward setup that's especially nice if you're connecting and disconnecting by yourself.
Out of curiosity, do you already have the rest of your flat towing setup, like the wiring and supplemental braking system, or are you still putting everything together?

I just finished my first trip with this tow bar on our 2022 Ford Escape hybrid. we were amazed by how easy it connects and disconnects, less than 30 seconds.

I have been pulling a 2021 Jeep Wrangler behind a DP for a couple of years. I attach it to a bumper that was already setup to attach the tow bar. Have not had any problems out of it. Would recommend it.
