Hey Scott,
To flat tow your 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee L, you'll need:
-Roadmaster Direct Connect Base Plate Kit part # RM97NQ that will work perfectly with your Falcon 2 tow bar and are a confirmed fit for a 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit.
-Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles Part # RM-156-25 to keep the battery from draining while towing since the fuses don't need to be pulled.
-Roadmaster Universal Taillight Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 10" LED Strips Part # RM35MR if you don't want to tap into the vehicle's wiring, these LED strips will stick onto the back of the vehicle and display the brake and turn signals.
-If you want a permanent installation, you can use the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Kit part # RM-152 to wire in the lights to get signals from the RV and you'll also need the Roadmaster Brake Light Relay Kit part # RM-88400 if you use the diode wiring kit to prevents your vehicle’s brake lights from canceling your RV’s turn signals.
-Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for 2020 and Newer Tiffin Chassis RVs w/Factory Air Brakes Part # DM55MV is designed to work with new Tiffins that have the Demco Air Force One lines pre-installed.
-Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screen for Towed Vehicles Part # RM-4750, since your vehicle is new, I suggest using a tow defender to help protect your Jeep from rocks and debris that can fly up when you're towing.
-Blue Ox 7' Safety Cables - 7,500 lbs - Qty 2 Part # BX88196, if you don't already have safety cable to go with your tow bar.
Do you have any trips planned to take your new Jeep on?
