  2. Will older 7-pin harness work on 2021 and later JL/JLU

    Mopar 7-pin harness 82215896 is the older (2018-2020) harness that runs through interior panels. It was replaced by p/n 82216359AA, which runs along the frame rails and spec’d for 2018-22 JL/JLU. Has anyone ran the older (interior) 7-pin harness on a newer (2021-2023) Wrangler? Will it work?
  3. Hitch Upgrade Options

    In looking to add additional cargo capacity I opted to not go a roof mountain system and instead go with the hitch mount Yakima EXO system. So far the system is awesome although it can quickly get super heavy and push the manufacturers weight limit. Since the system also swings out (super...

  5. Hitch height, stock JL Rubicon trailer/tow package

    Hey all, I'm buying my first Wrangler! So excited! Getting the bids in for my build and will be placing an order this week for a 2019 JL Rubicon. Quick question though, as none of the Rubicons on the lot here have hitches installed for me to measure. Does anyone know the height of the stock...

  8. Mopar Hitch Receiver & 1UP Bike Rack - Detailed Info/Pics

    Hello All, First actual post here on the forum, and my first Jeep ever! I recently picked up a Bright White JLUR and am closing in on the 3000-mile mark today, loving it so far, although quite a change from what I am used to. My objective with this thread is thorough information on the Hitch...
  9. Skid mark - Hitch receiver skid plate

    i have a small version of a product similar to this made by curt that is ok, but not quite large enough for harder hits. I was looking for something a little more durable and came across this online. I have not used or purchased it yet, but looks like it would work great...
  10. Installed Mopar hitch ( 68251844AB ) today

    Don’t think I’ve seen details on this: I wanted a hitch for a bike rack only (not towing, so wiring not needed). I tried the $55 jk/JL smittybilt from CJ Pony but it was very loose. I contacted smittybilt and they said it wasn’t for JL and a specific JL was coming. Back to CJPony it went. I...
  11. Would you/have you used Jeep service for product installation?

    i called my local Jeep dealer and asked how much to install the Mopar auxiliary panel and the service advisor asked what that was. I explained what it was and I still don’t think he got it. I was planning trailer hitch, OEM fog/headlights, aux switches but now I’m rethinking using Jeep. Any...
  12. Smittybily Hitch ... a lot of play?

    I grabbed the smittybilt hitch (link below) for my sport s. I haven’t installed yet, but when doing the test fit, it seems there’s quite a bit of play/gap between it and the frame. Any body else running into this? Will tightening it up close the gap...
  13. Can you see the hitch on the backup camera?

    In my other SUVs I can see the hitch ball when backing which makes hitching the trailer a breeze. On my JL I cannot see the ball, the tire covers the view. I would hate to use an extension on the hitch. Am I the only one with this issue? I have a 5” drop hitch, but even with a straight hitch I...
  14. Installing JL trailer hitch and wiring harness

    I thought I’d share an installation video for anyone looking to install the wiring harness themselves. I found it on YouTube. It was a life saver. The harness instructions were horrible, but this video was a great step by step. I also have a spare Mopar hitch receiver with cover if anyone’s...
  15. Motorcycle towing and carriers for the JL

    I'm planning to purchase a Honda Grom soon and was thinking of the best way to transport it with my Jeep when I travel. Has anybody used a hitch mounted motorcycle carrier (like this one: https://www.discountramps.com/black-widow-motorcycle-carrier/p/MCC-500/) for their bikes on their JLU or...
  16. Factory Towing Package - Data in UConnect

    If you have the factory towing package, what options are included in UConnect that relate to towing? I read a thread somewhere that said there is a factory computer flash that can be done so that the vehicle recognizes when you are towing something. Also, something that activates the anti-sway...
  17. Trailer Hitch Cargo Rack Recommendations for JLU

    Our new JLU Sport was equipped with the towing package which was great because it will allow us to attach a rear cargo rack (hitch mount) for our trips up to the lake with the kids. Obviously, there are hundreds of varying styles of these things, because these racks are used on anything equipped...
  18. Hitch to backup camera measurement

    Can anyone provide the measurement for either A, B or both in the image below for a JL? B would be the top of the hitch to the bottom of the backup camera. I think all JLs are the same, but in case not, looking for a JL 4 door Rubicon hitch measurements. Thanks!
  19. Mopar Tow Harness Install

    Ok, so I got around to installing the Harness today and documented as much as I could remember as I was working. It’s not a terrible job, but took me about 4 hours. 1. Disconnect the battery. I actually disconnected both the positive and negative. 2. Remove cap and unscrew the plastic bolt...
  20. Jeep JL Receiver Hitch

    I opted to save a few dollars and not go with the $800. Max Tow package and figured I would mount a $60. receiver hitch after I got my JL. I have been searching Mopar and many of the Jeep aftermarket sites but no trailer receiver hitch for the JL... Tonight I located Mopar Part Number...
