Fitment & Notes
Fits 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee (XJ)
¹ This hitch sits higher for improved ground clearance. Plan for a longer drop hitch or extended trailer wiring to match its new position.
² This hitch is built to handle factory tow capacity loads. As a low-volume manufacturer, we haven't pursued SAE, DOT, or FMCSA certification for it. If a certified hitch is important to you, look for a bumper that retains the factory receiver.
