Hey on your 2011 Wrangler, once the T-case is placed in N, dose the computer automatically unlock the steering wheel?

I just setup my new wrangler as our TOAD. I swapped out my front bumper for an off-road bumper with D-ring attachments. I then got the Warrior 'adjustable' Tow bar, with D-Ring end attachments for my setup.

For braking i'm using the Blue Ox BX88100 AutoStop Braking System and incase of a disconnect i'm using the NSA RV Products RS-5000 Break Away Device.

For tail/turn signal lights i'm using Hopkins 56200 Plug-In Simple Towed Vehicle Wiring Kit.

Install and setup was very straight forward and easy. I have yet to tow with it any distance but it all seems to work well.

Yep that's what I've done. Aftermarket front bumper with D rings and a Tonkin machine basic tow bar. Been towing Jeeps that way since the 80's. Have never had a problem. Of course now l tow my Jeep on a trailer these days eh

I might go to a trailer one day. But for now I want less wheels and 'things' to maintain!

I mounted a Currie Enterprise Tow Bar Mounting Kit that I bought off another Jeeper that doubles as a tough front skid plate, Blue Ox tow bar, the Hopkins 56200 Wiring Kit, and got a deal on a Brake Buddy with breakaway. I installed it all myself, didn't take much time, and I am novice plus. All works great flat towing 2011 2dr Wrangler. The Brake Buddy is not an install, it's just in/out.
