Default Installing a trailer hitch on a 2014 JKU Sport

Hey everybody! Just signed up for the forum and thought I post a write-up I did for my dealerships blog. I bought the hitch from Quadratec for $75 and it took me all of an hour (would have been less if I wasn't taking pics of everything). Let me know what you think!

For $75 Looks like he got wiring and the hitch from Qtech. $39.95 won't buy both

A quick look on etrailer shows $59 for the hitch and another $25 for the harness.

Cheese n rice, can't somebody just get excited about any mod they do to their rig without some DB throwing out his opinion and what the op should have done???

Awesome on the hitch, it always starts somewhere, then you'll wish every other mod was just as cheap and easy!

Amen, exactly why I posted what I did! Why do other people worry what someone else paid?? I can see trying to help out beforehand..I give thanks to the forum and members for saving me money in the past! Telling someone after the fact is a DB move.

Default Nice job, I was thinking about that setup.

Thanks for the post. I was just wondering how the fit of the Quadratec kit would be. I assume the fit was good or you would have mentioned it. Thanks,I feel an order coming on..

I installed the same hitch on mine, very easy and pretty cheap.
