So my wife and I are going to Yellowstone later this summer; we're still doing our motorhome research, so we'll be taking her F-250.

However, in Yellowstone itself (and surrounding area), I think the Jeep would be a lot more fun, especially with the top down and (maybe) the doors off.

Been doing a TON of reading and research...I think I'm better off getting an aftermarket bumper I want anyway, rather than a baseplate.

So here's what I'm thinking:

2. http://www.etrailer.com/Base-Plates/Jeep/Wrangler+Unlimited/2016/RM-035.html?vehicleid=201645005Roadmaster 3/4 D-ring adapter
3. http://www.etrailer.com/Tow-Bars/Roadmaster/RM-520.htmlRoadmaster Falcon tow bar

Based on what I'm reading, I think this'll work...but the opinions of seasoned RVs is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Using the bumper shown, simply use a "A" frame type tow bar, and attach it to the "D" ring mounts

Thanks for that! Any recommendations on an A-frame tow bar? I only see three "fixed" tow bars at etrailer.com, for example.

I've had 2 built by the local welding shop, It requires a little precision driving to get hooked up. and they store in a larger space, but they are fool proof.
be certain you use all self stopping nuts on the bumper and attaching hardware.
