Hello!
I'm new here and recently bought a used 2022 Sport S, 2 Door. It came with a hitch and switch box under the steering wheel. Does that mean that it has a tow package and is able to tow travel trailers that are under 2000# with a tongue weight of under 200#?
I believe the 2 door max tow is 2000 the 4 door is 3500 poinds

The brake controller under dash seems to be mounted bottom side out. The screws and removeable plate are normally on the side mounted to the dash.

If the trailer plug at the hitch is a 4 pin flat connector, it Cannot have trailer brakes. There simply are not enough pins/wires. To have brakes, the connector will be a 7 pin round (6 pins in a circle and a center pin) as shown below:

A 4-flat to 7-pin adapter will, when wired to the vehicle correctly, provide the necessary power for trailer brakes and auxiliary power.

The receiver hitches are Class II on both the two- and four-door Wranglers.
Only the factory hitch. Both Curt and Draw Tite make Class 3 receivers, with 500 and 675 tongue respectively. Great for cargo and bike racks.
@Melly71 if you pay shipping I'll give you the Draw Tite I have sitting in the garage, would be a big step up from whatever you have on there.

Thanks for your response. I’m definitely planning on tackling the rust🥴 By someone in the know, would that be by an RV rep or a dealership?
It isnt worth it. Just buy a new hitch receiver. Theyre not expensive and they bolt on. It is a 10 minute install.

Tow package has a larger alternator, too
Very important...I ordered my 2021 with the tow package, it has a 240 AMP alternator (etc.).
