Question:
I have a ARB deluxe bumper on my 2018 jeep JK with 3/4 in thick D rings with a 7/8 in bore. I am using a blue ox tow bar. Which adapter do I need and also could you suggest a wiring harness for lights. I am towing behind a diesel pusher Thanks

Though we do not have an adapter specially designed for the ARB bumper on your 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited, the Blue Ox Base Plate Adapter Brackets part # BX88357 may still work for you. This adapter is designed to work with a 3/4" tabs with 7/8" diameter pins. They are compatible with the Blue Ox Aladdin, Alpha, and Aventa LX tow bars. I also recommend that you check with the bumper manufacturer to make sure the bumper is rated for flat-towing.
For a flat-tow wiring harness I recommend the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles part # HM56200 as it is a completely plug and play option that will not require you to cut or splice any wires.
I have attached an install video on the above harness for you as well.
