Question Need a receiver adapter to tow Jeep?

[Spillplane]

Just installed BlueOx Elite on our 2021 Wrangler. Do I need a receiver adapter to raise or lower the angle the hitch sits at. Can’t be off horizontal 2”.

If so, make sure it's the 10k one it's solid where it goes into your Coach's reciever.

OR, I should have told you it's a great opportunity to get taller tires and wheels (in the interest of safety)

If you do, Blue Ox makes a nice one that will raise or lower as needed. We had the 4 inch rise or lower to get our last toad level. With the Cherokee they were at the same height when the coach was aired up so that was removed.

Have to measure to the center of the coach hitch when aired up to ride height and the base plate height in the jeep.

Tires, suspension, etc on the jeep could change this height quite a bit so difficult to say specifically for your setup.

I have 37s and a 4 inch lift on my jeep. I had to use a 12” riser to get it centered. Gen Y made one that was rated for 10k as a 12” riser.

When adding that much rise, it is important to address the anti rattle of all connections. I ended up using a total of 4 anti rattle devices between the coach and towbar to ensure a solid connection. The smallest of movements at the receiver translate to a lot of movement at the end of the towbar.
