Which Aftermarket Front Bumper For 2010 Jeep Wrangler Is Compatible With Flat Towing?
Question:
I have a 2010 Jeep Wrangler sport, and would like to know if I can attach a tow bar to the front points? I want to purchase a bumper with tow rings for direct hook up What bumper with winch mounts do you have And what additional parts will I need to complete the package.

While there is not a way to attach a tow bar to any of the front bumpers for the 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, you can add a baseplate kit that would allow a tow bar to hook up while still being compatible with your Rampage Mass Articulation Front Recovery Bumper # RA88509 (winch plate included). You will want to go with Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1134 as this is confirmed to fit with the Rampage bumper. Then you can add a tow bar such as Blue Ox Alpha 2 Non-Binding Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,500 lbs # BX7380.
You will also need a light kit and supplemental braking system and for this I recommend Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 and Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39494. These are both popular options and they offer a simple installation. I attached demonstration videos for you.
