Jeep Wrangler Towing Essentials

For safe and efficient towing with your Jeep JL, JK, TJ, or even an older Wrangler, having the right accessories is just as important as the hitch itself. Start with a trailer wiring harness to sync your Wrangler’s lights with your trailer for proper signaling. Next, add a ball mount and hitch pin to keep your trailer securely in place. Make sure every component matches your vehicle’s towing capacity and dimensions for a setup that’s both reliable and road-ready.

2. Hitch Pin

 A hitch pin locks the ball mount shank or any other towing accessory into place within your Jeep Wrangler’s receiver hitch, ensuring a secure connection. While some ball mounts include a hitch pin, others do not, so be sure to choose one that fits the correct hole size and length for your setup.

3. Hitch Tube Cover

 Keep your Jeep Wrangler’s tow hitch in top shape with a receiver tube cover. It blocks dirt and debris from getting inside when the hitch isn’t in use, helping to maintain its durability. When selecting a hitch cover, be sure it fits the exact dimensions of your Wrangler’s receiver tube for a secure and seamless fit.
