plug and play flat tow wiring - Jeep TJ / LJ

Been seeing a few different posts on how to wire a Wrangler for flat towing. Most involve cutting and splicing wires. While a lot of different ways to wire up a Jeep for flat towing I have yet to see this one.

In my quest to find a kit to wire mine up I came across a plug in flat wiring tow wiring kit. Although a person can piece together diodes and wires to make their own, I wanted to buy a kit with everything included.

I was looking at this kit from Camping World. It involves some cutting and splicing. On sale for $84.65. Looks to include almost everything.

While searching for the best pricing I came across this kit and ordered it. Plug and play, also cheaper at $74.95.
Hopefully it works out.

It also has a provision for a second harness to wire a plug for if I decide I want to tow something with my Jeep for $10.95.

  • That harness looks like the one I used which is a Trailermate I believe the number is tm781124. It is a plug & play harness. Pretty easy to install & works fine. I changed out the 4 pin plug for a 6 pin so I could charge my jeep battery. Theyhave video install instructions on etrailer. Just one hole to drill on right rear of jeep to get plug through. I resealed the hole with foam afterwards. I use the Blue Ox tow bracket & it has hardware to bolt a 6 pin plug in place. I didn't buy the extra harness for a trailer. Jeep won't tow much.
