Jeep Trailer Hitch: Made With Jeep In Mind.

Jeep owners are no-nonsense rugged types who expect quality and performance as well as durability and innovation. This is exactly what they get with the Jeep trailer hitch that is designed exclusively for Jeep by Daimler Chrysler.

It's called the Mopar trailer hitch and there is one for every model of Jeep designed according to the vehicle load capacity. Check your owner's manual for your vehicle specifications regarding towing and be careful not to push beyond the vehicle limits. The results are not only negative regarding the tow rig itself but also the safety of oneself and others.

The latest Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 has a Mopar trailer hitch weight option of up to 3,500lbs. So does the Unlimited model. The trailer hitch for these powerful models comes with a 2" opening receiver and 7 way wiring.

The Mopar hitch receiver comes welded into a one-piece unit that offers superior strength and safety. It is coated in a double layer of E-coated paint to protect it from the effects of rust. There is a tow hitch package for the 6-cylinder engine with a weight capacity of 2,000lbs and one for the 4-cylinder engine with a smaller tow capacity of 1,000lbs.

The Jeep Trailer hitch comes with a 4 way wiring plug holder and hitch covers can be purchased with the ram's head, Jeep or Mopar logo. The material is a Santoprene compound that won't shrink or weather. The regular tow packages include the standard ball mount and a chrome hitchball. Prices range between $139 for the light-duty hitch and $149 for the 8 cylinder Jeep models.
