New Hitch
 

well I got my hitch installed last night on my 2011 jk unlimited. Ordered it from Just Jeeps and they shipped it Monday afternoon and I had it Tuesday morning. Hitch and wireing. Great deal and great service. The install was super easy and the wireing harness was even easier. My last hitch and wireing I installed was on a 09 escape and what a pain, had to remove the rear bumper run a power wire to the battery and ground it. The wireing for the jeep was just plug into the rear drivers side tail and booom done ! Hitch Looks factory.

the only thing I do wish was a little better was the connection on the hitch that holds the trailer hookup. its not very tight. I am going to a trailer hitch store here in town to see if they sell anything that I can add to it. Other then that great deal and easy install.:banana:

About to pull the trigger and buy our first jeep. Hitch is something we'd like. The $500.00 option seems pricey to me for something aftermarket is way cheaper. Does an aftermarket hitch void warranty in anyway???

Re: New Hitch
 

not sure how it could void your warranty at all. It was so easy to install I didn't have to change anything just slide on and bolt. I got my hitch and wireing for under $175.00 and that included $25.00 shipping.

I asked nicely and the dealer threw in the hitch free. Might be worth a try?

From what I understand the trailer package is more than just the hitch. I think you get a different gear ratio (in the X/Sport)...3:73 vs.3:21 and you also get stiffer springs.
...at least that's my understanding.

In addition, you also get the Trailer Sway Control turned on in the computer.
