Reviews for Rugged Ridge 2" Receiver Hitch for 18-21 Jeep Wrangler JL with Optional Wiring Kit
Took at little bit of finesse to get everything lined but once I did, it when on great.
I primarily purchased this (without wiring) for my bike rack. It is much more solid attaching than I anticipated; it seems like it would hold fine for most anything I'd be towing.
Installation was easy; only required a couple of wrenches (or two pliers) and was easy to install despite the body panels.
Overall I'm pleased with this product and would recommend it for any light use (only because I haven't tested it with anything "heavy").
I was hesitant with installing this on my own as I am no electrician. The wiring ended up not being difficult and I was able to run the wires under the difficult and secure them with the supplied zip ties fairly easily. The hitch installed fairly straight forward in the pre-existing holes. I did end up securing the wiring module with screws by drilling into part of my vehicle as I did not trust the adhesive that came with it.
Love this hitch. Saved a ton of cash over buying the Jeep with a hitch or having one dealer installed. I did not buy the wiring kit at this time as I am currently only using the hitch for non-towing purposes. Installation was moderate, but not too difficult on my JL
Holds my bike rack perfectly. Fairly easy install.
Quick shipping, great customer service, and as always, exactly what I ordered. HIGHLY RECOMMEND QUADRATEC.
Quick 5 minute install!
Installed this in less than an hour without removing the bumper.
Its a hitch it’s good.
Hitch went on as expected, easy. Way easier than a JK install.
I routed the harness on top of the firewall to the drivers side. Drilled a 1/8” hole in the black plastic plug that sits above the pedals under the dash. Ran the wire under the carpet / door sills all the way back. Then ran it through the windshield wiper harness hole above the drivers side tail light. There’s a rubber shield that I poked a hole in and ran the hot wire through it too.
I recommend this route instead of running it down the frame. Much easier and cleaner.
With two of us, we had everything installed and tested in an hour and a half. Very pleased with the form, fit and function.
