MAXIMUS-3 Knows Winch Plates... * In 2013 Maximus-3 was the first company to design a winch plate to fit a Warn Zeon inside the JK 10A/Hard Rock bumper. A feat of engineering that was said to be "not possible." * Our Winch Plate structurally exceeds all standards required by winch...

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...

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...

I am curious as to how it responded while towing compared to the JKU or other towing experiences. Towing a boat to and from the lake would most likely be the extent of what I want to do with it. Any input from those that have already received their JLU?

Does the rubicon come with a trailer hitch or do you have to get the package?

Anyone have any thoughts based on the current information available on if the 3500lb towing capacity on JKU will be increased on the JLU?
