Question:
Just bought my motorhome and want to tow my 1995 Jeep Wrangler along on trips. Really dont want to spend thousands of dollars for tow set-up. Would your Blue Ox model BX 7322 do the job. What else would I all need? My jeep is a manual transmission. Do you see any issues flat towing this jeep? Thanks

It's hard to do flat towing setups on the cheap, but there are a few ways to help save money. The Acclaim tow bar part # BX4330 that you referenced would be a great solution for a tow bar that's not overly expensive. Then for a base plate kit you'd want the # BX1137.
For lighting you can't beat the price of a magnetic kit like the Optronics part # TL21RK.
The braking system are all around the same price so it's pretty hard to avoid paying a decent amount for a setup like the SMI DUO part # SM99251 which will work great in your Wrangler.
