Jeep dinghy

Tired of towing the DW's Acura on the tow dolly.  Sold the dolly and bought a 2006 Jeep Rubicon.  I am looking for suggestions for equipment to tow 4 down.  Any help would be a great as there are many products on the market.

No Rubicon but we use the Roadmaster All-Terrain and the M&G brake system ((m-gengineering.com) on our Wrangler. This uses coach air but is an under the hood install. M&G (or their dealers) do the full install - brake, air, lights - quickly & reasonably

We are using the blue ox base plate and tow bar with the M&G brake system.

Great seeing your post.  No better tow than a Wrangler.  So easy to hook up.

Glad the U295 is still working for you.  That is a good coach.

I switched to invisa brake for the last trip, love it. Camping World has specials, but I installed it myself.

Same set up as OGR and bbeane. Can't imagine an easier hook/unhook.  Never know it's back there unless I turn on the back up camera.  Previous tow dolly.
