Jeep is the undisputed king of flat towing. The Wrangler, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, and Cherokee are consistently among the most flat-towed vehicles in America. Blue Ox offers base plates for the full Jeep lineup with vehicle-specific engineering for each model.

Why Jeep dominates flat towing

• Jeep Wrangler: The most popular flat-towed vehicle for years. Transfer case neutral makes it one of the simplest vehicles to tow.
• Jeep Gladiator: Truck-based Wrangler sibling with the same easy flat towing capability plus a bed for cargo.
• Jeep Grand Cherokee: Mid-size SUV luxury with flat towing capability in 4WD configurations with Quadra-Trac II or Quadra-Drive II.
• Jeep Cherokee: Compact SUV with flat tow approval in certain 4WD configurations.

Jeep flat towing procedures

• Transfer case to neutral: Jeeps with part-time or full-time 4WD systems use transfer case neutral for towing.
• No engine running required: Unlike many vehicles, most Jeeps do not require engine starts during towing.
• Simple setup: The combination of transfer case neutral and no complex procedures makes Jeep a favorite among RVers.

While Jeeps are generally easy to flat tow, procedures vary by model and year. Verify your specific vehicle's requirements in the owner's manual. Contact us if you need help selecting the right base plate.
