1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ Hitches & Towing

The WJ has a factory tow rating that most owners never use and an aftermarket hitch ecosystem that is considerably deeper than the factory setup gives access to — weight distribution hardware, brake controllers, proper wiring harnesses, and receiver-mounted accessories that turn the WJ into a legitimate hauler rather than just a truck with a ball hitch. That full picture is what 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ Hitches & Towing covers.

 

A class III receiver hitch on the WJ opens up the receiver-mounted accessory world beyond just a trailer ball — a bike rack, a cargo carrier, or a spare tire swing-out all mount to the same receiver and are interchangeable without any tools on most designs. Trailer wiring harnesses that plug into the WJ's factory trailer connector are the clean installation route, since running wires independently of the factory circuit risks overloading circuits that were not designed for the additional draw.

 

Towing with the WJ properly done — hitch, wiring, and the hardware to do it right — is what 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ Hitches & Towing covers.
