towing

I trying to see if anyone has came up with a clever way to attach a 7pin trailer connection to the back of their jeep that doesn’t become low hanging fruit for departure angle. (I might be acquiring a teardrop camper soon) Also, does anyone have experience with the tekonsha prodigy RF (the...

Hello All, I have a 2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ. 2.5L i4 engine, getting up to 160k miles now. I’ve been watching the Matt’s Off Road Recovery channel on YouTube lately, and I believe that the same business model could work in my own home city. I’m from Tucson, Arizona, and the surrounding area is...

I am adding electric brakes to a small (4'x6') utility trailer that I tow (1998 TJ, manual 4.0L), for safety and peace of mind. Where do the wires from the trailer brakes connect to the Jeep? Is there already a brake controller connector in the vehicle to plug into, and if so where is that? What...

Just like the title said I am trying to figure out how necessary frame tie ins would be for short term towing. I am moving across country(NOT TOWING) in the next week. Picking up the 2,000 pound total storage container on a trailer will save me about $300. I recently upgraded my rear bumper...

I had to have my Jeep towed to a shop recently. I used a reputable tow company and the crew who showed up used a tow rig that grabbed and lifted the rear tires off the pavement. They assured me that they had towed a Jeep before. The trans stayed in park, with the transfer case in 2-Hi. With the...

Hello all, I used a trailer yesterday for the first time with my 06 TJ. I have never experienced any wobble or death wobble symptoms before and can usually even go 75 on the highway with steering holding true and no issues at all. Yesterday on the way out to Home Depot with the trailer I had...

I have a used trailer towing wiring harness off my 2000 TJ. 4 pin plug. To my understanding it should fit all TJ/LJ’s. Please check for fitment on your rig. $15 shipped to lower 48 via USPS first class.

Greetings! First post to the forum ... I know this topic has been written about and discussed ad nauseam, but I'm getting so much conflicting info ... I have a 2017 Jeep Wrangler 4D Sahara, and the gear ratio is 3.2. The towing capacity is 2,000 pounds. I'm considering buying an Aliner camper...

I came across a car stuck on the median unable to move because the wheels were off the ground. I offered to pull them off with my winch or tow strap but was unable to find a spot to attach because they had no tow hitch and the rest of the car was resting on the median. The police officer called...

Hello I have to move coming up in February I normally would rent u haul moving truck and pull the jeep behind but that isn't an option this time as the cost is way too high for too afford. I was wondering if my TJ will have trouble towing the u haul 6 x 12 trailer 2040km (1268m). I have an...

A friend just gave me a old pop-up camper. The camper's body is aprox. 6'x8', with an overall length of 10', weight is under 1000lbs. dry. It's pretty beat but, it was free! I have a 97 TJ with a 4.0, Auto trans. and 31x10.50x15s. I know my Jeep is still strong enough to pull this wreck. I...

Hi Jeeper and Jeeples, Is time for me to get a trailer and start hauling my LJ around and as a Forum loyal fella the best and smart is to start asking you fellas. I do solidly drive my Jeep anywhere when I'm Home and to any wheeling trip my Club members and Me go. This past months I have been...

In about 3 and a half weeks I'll be towing a decent sized trailer 1000 miles with my jeep. Guessing the weight will be around 1500. Does anyone have any experience with this? How much slower do I need to drive on the freeway? Jeep is running great and I have brand new BF Goodrich Ko2 31's on it...

I am switching to LED tail lights and adding the heavy duty flasher relay the dash to prevent the hyper flash. My question is I tow my jeep behind my motor home. Will I need to change the flasher relays in the Motor home as well? Thanks in advance

Get the most outta your TJ! If you have a TJ and tow and OFFROAD/CAMPER trailer setup. I'd love to see it! Any experiences and helpful information you can share is also much appreciated. I use my TJ a lot for towing my offroad trailer and I love it. Would love to see others and share info...

So my pretty girl is going to be towed behind my husbands truck in the next month and we are looking for suggestions. We need a new bumper with D-ring mounts for our '97 and a towing bar to flat tow. Anyone have experience with this? Or know of any good bumpers or tow bars?

I know that a TJ isn't supposed to tow more than 1500 lbs. My question is, if I wanted to tow a small trailer (1500 lbs. or less), can I use a bumper with a receiver hitch built into it (i.e. Savvy), or do I need a separate receiver hitch system that attaches somewhere else?
