Is there a possibility to equip a Jeep SRT 8 w/ a trailer hitch?
Just wondering if there is anyway jeep/mopar or other companies offer a hitch kit for the jeep srt 8, and if they do then where would it go due to the dual exhaust being placed in the preexisting spot designated for the trailer hitch.
Yes there is. The kit will liekly be available later this year or early next.

Thinking of Towing a Vacation Trailer This Summer ?
Thinking of towing a trailer this summer or later this year? Safety first. Think your vehicle next. A little planning and foresight can go a great distance in saving you grief , keeping your family safe and lastly saving you a great amount of time and repair costs.
If running a trailer economically as well as safely can be summarized it would well be simplified as - first get a trailer package - that is a vehicle meant to carry a large or heavy trailer if need be. Select a proper hitch. If need be for large trailers install brakes , Usually brakes are almost a mandatory safety feature on all trailers that weight in at over 2,000 lb ( 1 ton). In terms of safety - have proper safety lights installed , use trailer mirrors, reflectors and blocks and as well ensure to have a fire extinguisher, tool kit , spare tire and a trailer jack. If you are carrying large loads in your trailer - ensure that you have heavy duty tires. Care for your tires well. Keep all equipment well lubricated. Lastly make sure to inspect your equipment on a regular and frequent ongoing basis. Never leave anything to chance.
It is necessary to take into account the weight of the full loaded trailer and the power of the tow vehicle. . Never try to haul a trailer that is too large or too heavy for the tow vehicle. It is most important to match the towing vehicle to the proper sized trailer. This cannot be emphasized too much. Skimp on the vehicle and you will be left with an underpowered vehicle - that is not only unsafe on the road - unable to accelerate easily and out of harms way in emergency situations on the road but also will leave you with both large fuel bills and most likely a most expensive transmission repair bill. Running an undersized vehicle to carry a trailer is not only unsafe - its expensive and overall false economy in the long run. Ultimately if you need to, check with the vehicle's dealer of manufacturer for trailer towing recommendations, if you are in doubt or unsure. It's always wiser and safer to be safe than sorry.
When it comes to hitches - that is the hitch that will be attached to your vehicle - always select the proper hitch for the type of trailer that you intend to tow. In some locales bumper hitches - that is hitches that are attached directly to the bumper are allowed. In other locales, these bumper hitches, may be deemed unsafe and are not allowed. It is best to check with the local authorities in you area before having a hitch installed on your vehicle. Next consider the weight of the trailer that you are towing. If the trailer weighs more than that 2,000 lbs then you may well want to use a weight distributing or "equalizing" hitch. Equalizing hitches work by transferring a portion of your trailer's weight towards the front of your tow vehicle, thus reducing the weight on the tow vehicle back axle. This results in a level ride with much better control of both the vehicle and your towed trailer. Regardless of the hitch that you will use, or require towing your trailer you will undoubtedly need to use a safety device in addition to the hitch to attach the trailer to your vehicle. This will be a safety chain or cable. These should well be slack enough as well, to allow for turns and turning.
Lastly consider as well the both the brakes on your vehicle and trailer are both adequate to do the job fully and safely. Remember always that the weight of a trailer creates greater momentum which will work to push the tow vehicle from behind, when it is slowing down or stopping. The wise addition of trailer brakes will lessen this force and thus help to slow down both the vehicle and trailer more effectively. As well, of course, trailer brakes can be said to be essential whenever the tow vehicles encounter grades on the roadways.
Happy motoring. Happy trailering .
