Rugged Ridge 11580.60 Trailer Hitch Kit, Wire Harness, Rugged Ridge Logo; 07-18 Wrangler

This is a solidly built hitch which is conceptually simple to install. The holes are all where they should be, the bolts, washers, and nuts are all appropriate. The design of my Jeep Wrangler made installation a little more tricky, but that is not the fault of the Hitch design.The hitch fits securely over the rear frame and the bolts all lined up well. However the space between the bumper and frame is pretty narrow for my big fingers. I did not even consider removing the bumper as some have suggested. However, there were a couple of tips from other reviews that really helped.You have to slide in the bolt with a washer from the front. This means you work around the muffler DON'T TRY IT WITH A HOT MUFFLER.Placing the washer on the threaded end of the bolt was really difficult with my fingers, but very simple when I grabbed the washer with needle nose pliers. Similarly, half of the nuts wound up in the bumper when I used fingers. Instead, I used a slip joint (water-pump) plier to hold the nut against the threads and turned the bolt with a socket. After that, no issuesIn addition to the specified 19 mm wrench and 18mm socket specified I would have a needle nose plier, slip joint plier and last but not least, a flexible or telescoping magnet to retrieve the washers and nuts you will drop into the bumper.When hooking up the wiring, I was briefly stymied trying to pass the harness down from the taillight. You need to lift up the foam guard at the bottom of the tail light well and pass the harness around it.Overall, a good sturdy hitch, and a relatively straightforward installation with a couple of wrinkles.Overall, I'm pretty pleased with the hitch

Works great all but the plug didn't work

My 2017 JKU - It fit and worked as it should have, install was a breeze except if you dont remove the bumper, get a pair of needle nose pliers to put the nuts onto the bolts. Almost no room for your fingers, other than that simple as it gets. Bolts right on, plugs right in and everything goes back together easy peasy.

Simple to put on, the wiring harness is a breeze!You need a Phillips screw driver for the tail light, a 16mm open wrench or docket to remove the bumper. ( makes putting on the hitch and threading the wiring harness way easier. 18mn and a 19mm wrench to tighten the bolts that hold the hitch and your done. The wiring is plug and play. Well done kit. I even like the little Rugged Ridge stopper that was included. Very classy!

Seems to be a very high quality item. Looks and works great.

I bought this for my 2018 JL. It doesn't let you know that the wiring harness is for a JK. The actual hitch was easy to install and I like the fact that the receiver port has a cover provided.

Missing the wiring harness .

It says this works on a Wrangler JL but it does not. The wiring harness keeps coming to me with Wrangler JK......Even after I called and complained. They sent me another hitch after a lot of drama. But I still got the same wiring harness for a JK. Frustrating and annoying

This hitch fit my 2013 JK perfectly and the wiring harness was plug and play as described. The installation is really easy and anyone with basic tools and skill can install this on their Jeep in an afternoon. I really like that it doesn't extend out past the back bumper where you could hit it with your leg when loading or unloading items in the cargo compartment.

Listing is for a JL but the harness that came with it is for a JK the hitch is perfect

Super easy to install on my 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The only problem is fitting the nuts and washers on the bolts as there is not much finger room. Probably should have removed the Bumper first but I was lazy and it still took less than 2 hours.

This Rugged Ridge Receiver Hitch Kit is very well made, and well finished. Installation was also very simple. This is a high quality product, and I would highly recommend it!
