Specs. This Receiver Hitch with Plug from Rugged Ridge is custom designed and bolts right to factory mount points on the back of the vehicle. Simliar to the OE hitch, this features a standard 2 inch square receiver. It has a tow rating of 3,500 lbs for 4-door Wranglers and 2,000 lbs for 2-door Wranglers with 2 inch openings. You will need to consult your owner's manual for details. A wire harness is included, and it's made to the original equipment specifications. It plugs right into the existing wiring harness, which prevents you from needing to make frustrating and expensive modifications to your Jeep's wiring.

Construction. This piece is designed with a durable power coat, which sheds water and ensures a long-lasting finish that's rust and corrosion free. It's manufactured as a 1-piece welded assembly for additional strength, and was built specifically to match the towing capacity of your Jeep.

Application. This 2 inch receiver hitch with plug fits 2007-2018 JK Wranglers.

Fitment: 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Details

I bought the Gibson Metal Mulisha exhaust from you guys about two years ago. I had to take off the tow hitch I had on there previously cause it was to long and touched the muffler. Can you tell me if this hitch will fit on my Jeep with this exhaust? It’s a 2017 Wrangler Chief Edition.

What's different about this hitch that it can't fit the 2018 JL? I have the 4dr JL and the underbelly looks the same my old JK. Will this hitch and wiring assembly fit my JL? I see that you have the recommended hitch for the JL but what's different about it? 1 answer

Unfortunately, this kit was not designed to work with the JL wrangler and will not fit properly due to the slight differences between the JK and JL models as well as the difference in wiring. Rugged Ridge designed this hitch and wiring to be a an easy installation on with the JK Wranglers.

Rugged Ridge 2 in. Receiver Hitch Easy Install

I am very please with my recent purchase of the Rugged Ridge 2 in. Receiver Hitch kit. I can't believe how easy it was to install which was less than the one hour that was estimated. Although the paper instructions were somewhat vague, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out.
