Reviews for Quadratec Tow Hitch Wiring Harness for 18-24 Jeep Wrangler JL
Just what I needed. Easy to install. As someone else said, I bought some extra plastic wire conduit for the middle section of the power supply line. I am not sure why they left it off the middle of the wire. It was worth the extra $6 I paid for the plastic conduit at my local auto parts store.
Good
I have been putting off adding a trailer wiring harness for a year now because all of them that are offered for the JLU were to involve. I decided to give this one a try, all I can say is EASY EASY no big deal Quadratec made this very easy to install and it
works great and all components are made well.
I needed this wiring harness for my 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon JLU in order to rent a uhaul trailer to pick up my motorcycle from the repair shop. I ordered it through Quadratec because I had previously bought the 2" hitch receiver that I previously installed from them. It arrived within a couple days and I put it on after work. It took me a little under three hours from loosening the first bolt to cleaning up after myself and testing the system after I installed it (used tester bought from another site). It might have taken me longer than the site prescribes because I consulted the instructions with each step to enure I didn't screw it up. It worked just as described and I was able to get my motorcycle home with no problems. I highly recommend this product. Not that expensive, easy to install and gets the job done!
Installed on 2020 Jeep Wrangler JLU Sahara
While there are others out there that are a few dollars cheaper, I’d recommend this one. It’s worth the money. You get what you pay for. Installation was pretty easy and the quality of the product and wiring harnesses is real good.
This one came with wiring conduits and clips. This alone is worth the extra few dollars.
Once installed, it worked perfectly. And the plug itself fits snug in the hitch clip to hold it.
Solid constriction and you can tell the wiring is done right. Very happy that I bought this!
Really well made and well thought out kit. The only improvement I made was added some wire loom in the middle (that will make sense when you get the kit). It is probably not necessary at all, but I did it anyway. I am not sure why they would leave it off when they went through the trouble to loom the majority of the kit.
Worked perfectly first time, and now I don't have that huge wiring bracket hanging down like the factory set up. I just added a couple zip ties, and tuck into the side of the hitch when not in use. Stays completely out of harms way that way.
Really nice kit and well thought out. Works perfect and very clean appearance. It took a little longer than an hour to install but that was me taking my time and making sure everything was routed and mounted perfect.
This wiring harness arrived quickly. I am '''very'' impressed on how well it is put together. Even the split loom and harness hangers are already on the wires from the factory. The only modification that I plan to change is the 12 volt power lead. The directions recommend running the wire all the way up front to connect directly to the battery. I plan to splice that wire to into the accessory plug that is in the back of the Jeep. My belief would be that the manufacturer designed this to be totally plug and play by going directly to the battery. Splicing wires is not plug and play. I am too old to crawl under the Jeep to fish a wire all the way from back to front. So I will go the shortest route and splice into the back of the rear accessory plug. If my method causes any unforeseen issues I will update this review. 1/9/2021
Great product and very well made!!!! Install took a little longer than advertised but I'm a little anal and made a few modifications. With that being said, the only two things I would change in the instructions would be pg 2, fig 6 was a little confusing and fig 9 on pg 3. Like others said, the holes are on top of the cross member and a little difficult to find. Laying the wire against the cross member and matching the wire ties distance will hope your finger to find the holes. All wire ties DO have a hole to secure to so keep looking if you're unsure. All pictures displayed in instructions are very accurate, so if you take your time and follow the instructions, no problems. Great product!
Great instructions and the harness has everything hooked together nicely whereas other kits do not. Surprisingly mine didn’t work at first but after a bit of troubleshooting found that it was the ground. My bolt that the instructions say to connect to was completely painted so there was no bare metal connection. I sandpapered the bolt and afterwards everything worked great. I highly recommend this.
