| Post subject: | CRD Trailer Hitch/Wiring |
Hello, With the new CRD in the garage, I need to find a trailer hitch and wiring. Are all 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty's the same on the hitch? I'm wandering if I can find an OEM on a wrecked gas burner and put it on the CRD? How about the wiring? Could I use some of it? Thanks for any help. I realize I could buy new, but my funds are very tight and I'm trying to look at the total cost. Pete |

Depends if you need 4 or 7 wire hook up for just lights or lights and electric brakes http://jparts.com/product_info.php?cPat ... 75e9de5b1b http://jparts.com/product_info.php?cPat ... 75e9de5b1b |

I am pretty sure that all Liberty's through 2007 use the same hitch. I am not so sure that is true of the wiring and some were pre-wired, some were not. Do you have the EVIC? |

I got all my stuff from the dealer and it was plug and play. Since I do not have the EVIC/overhead console, I had to get the extra wire harness to supply power to the trailer turn signal relay. That was a witch to put it. The actually wire harness was a piece of cake. After being a car stereo installer for more than 15 years, I find doing it correctly with the correct parts the first time is the best way. You get what you pay for. Here they offer a 7 pin and 13 pin setup and it worked perfectly with my US spec KJ. This is where I got my stuff from and other items. They ship to APO/FPO and have a A++ customer service team. http://www.justforjeeps.com/hirewihatrto1.html Also does anyone know where I can get a 12N to 7pin flat adapter from? I know Land Rover offers a 12N to 4 pin but thats all I could find. |

Dave, By EVIC --I'm assuming you mean the overhead counsel? Yes I have it. It's been telling me that my spare tire is low!!! Sorry, I'm not hip on the lingo--I'm an old time diesel guy |

FYI - Pay careful attention to the receiver's load rating. I saw several that I thought were a good buy until I noticed that they were 5K lbs only using a weight distributing hitch. I got a Draw Tite that's 5K lbs w/o wt distributing and 7500lbs w/ weight distributing. Although I'll never haul that much, I wanted to make sure I had the heaviest duty receiver possible. All in all, it was only a $30 difference between the two receivers. |
