How To: Flat Tow Your Jeep Wrangler JL, JLU & 4xe Behind Your RV or Camper

how do u lock the steering wheel? nobody shows that…i dont believe that steering wheel doesnt need to be locked.

Does this method add miles to your Jeep? I have a 2016 Jeep Wrangler

What does the whole setup cost, including the hookup and the brake system on the jeep?

Hi , you mentioned the key is on off , so my question is , how the tires steer if column is lock?

Very thorough explanation, thank you! I’ll be flat towing our Wrangler for the first time later this week. Is your system set for vacuum or active brake?

What about the steering wheel lock? Does the key stay in the on position? Or do Wranglers even have steering wheel locks?

If you dont have a Toad Brake, just leave a kid in the drivers seat and tell them to push the brake with the Motorhome brakes light up.

Excellent video. I'm considering selling my fifth wheel & 3/4 ton and going to a motorhome/jeep setup.
Two questions sir if I can ask... did you consider either an open or closed car hauler trailer? I know that can add quite an additional expense and second, After buying the newMotor Home and the new jeep, what additional expense am I looking at roughly, for the whole flat tow setup if I can ask

Thanks in advance for your reply sir.

Thanks for the great video… hooked up our JK and worked wonderfully. We just upgraded Jeep to a JL and see the Maximus JL tow loop link is bad. Do you have a new link to share?

Why the vehicle move when it's in park st confuse on this

What if this vehicle doesn't have 4x4

Have you ever had any issues with the front end alignment on the jeep being negatively impacted by being flat towed? Also wondering if the brake inside the Jeep is required?? I would think as light as the jeep is the motorhome brakes would be substantial enough to stop the weight of jeep without auxiliary braking. Otherwise a great video…very informative and helpful for a newbie like myself.

Great video. Thanks for putting this together. High five to Charlie for being awesome!

Hey. Love the video. I have a 2024 Rubicon. There's a 20 amp fuse under the hood that you can move over one position in order make your 12v always active. 😀

I dont understand how the steering wheel stays in line with rv...

Thanks for putting this together!!! Very detailed & exceptionally informative ...👍👍👍

Thx for the video.
You sais you have one for the installation of the wiring harness.
Can you share the link please ?
Thx 🙂

Great video!! really helped me the 1st time using the RVi 3 system.

does the Maximus act as a base plate?

Does your Maximus need the tie rods? How come yours does not have one?

Class c tow bar

Great video. Unless I might have missed this..... if the Jeep ignition key is off for towing, doesn't the steering wheel on the Jeep remain in the locked position?

We did not disconnect for several days and used the Jeep 4xe battery for power. The Jeep ended up in the shop for 6 days and caused a lot of lost rv park fees. I now use a power generator that I place on the drivers seat to power the brake controller and it works great. Question: have you experienced any death wobble in the front end when driving the Jeep after towing?

That is not how my flat tow instructions says to set up. My manual says to put the transmission in Neutral, turn off the engine, put the transfer case in Neutral.
I wonder why some Jeeps can be put in neutral;transfer case with engine running & some can’t

Very well done video that clearly explains how to set up and use the flat-towing system. Thanks.

Can somebody provide the kit or a parts list for this setup?

How much does a setup like this cost?

Hi, I trying find this attached you have in the Jeep , can I have the name of the part.

Thank you

Hi, it’s the one the arms attached on the Jeep!
The one on the Jeep

Yes
Thank you

HI, I forgot to ask you if this part fit on 2020 Jeep Gladiator Overland

This is the best instruction set for flat towing a JLU on the internet. Jeeps manual is confusing, quadratic tried a write up and failed, this is it! Thanks for making this video

What about the steering of the tow vehicle? How does it steer along with the RV and not lock up?

Great video with excellent instruction. Thank you.

Nice video but crossing you safety cables will not keep your tow bar off the pavement.!

very thorough and informative. tyvm indeed.

I was told you have to unplug some traction system before you flat tow a 4xe. There’s more to this than towing a regular jeep. That true?

"Your other left!" LOL! Love it! Teaching kids "how to" is sorely lacking in our society today. I'm glad to see your doing the right things with you son.

Your video is very informative. We decided to flat tow our jeep cherokee latitude with the blue ox towing system but don’t have the brake system yet. Is it easy to get the RVI 3 installed by our novice selves? Lol tia

Great video and information thank you

While towing the 4xe, can you use the regen breaking?

Do Not Shift Into Park Prior To Shutting Off The Ignition

What about the steering wheel locking up

I just purchased a 2024 Jeep wrangler 4xe Sahara and plan to flat tow it behind my RV. I notice you had and electrical cut off switch for the lights on you jeep. I have been reading of people having dead batteries and odometer flashing after flat towing. Is that switch to prevent that? I am trying to avoid those issues if possible. I have heard something about pulling a fuse as well. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Oh the video is fantastic, learned a lot from it as well.

Nice, informative video. One observation that I didn't see anyone else mention. When your son activated the brakes in the RV, the left and right brake lights lit up on the jeep but the center / cyclops light over the spare tire did not. I don't know the laws in every state but I'm thinking you want that light to come on also, don't you?

FYI, you should get the Maximus 3 tie rod kit for your tow bar.

What is the total of materials? Did you install everything yourself?

Do you have an update for this video? I am curious what you would buy today for a 2024 Wrangler 4XE? Magnus 3 loops? RIVI3? Blue Ox? Your thoughts on Demco systems for RVs with and without air brakes? Thanks!
