I read that when towing the Metalcloak Reinforcement Brackets would be a good idea.

As far as installing them on a 2025 is the procedure still the same as with earlier models as far as not using the MC hardware but use the MOPAR bolts 06513320AA and add nylon lock nuts?

Factory bolts are to short after adding the metal cloak brackets the size of the bolt are 12 mm with a 1.50 thread you’ll need longer ones

That’s the right Mopar part number and the way I went on my 21 Mojave , putting the lock nut on was an extra measure some did. Metal Cloak should be able to tell you if the 25 is still the same setup. It is not just for towing but for piece of mind and is not an expensive or hard to do mod!….Jack

I'm curious, because we your a small camper with our Gladiator, where you read that those brackets are a good idea for towing?

I'm probably going to go ahead and get them regardless, but it'd be nice to know the why...

I think I did a search on the brackets and read it in a post. It said they were a good idea for off-roading and towing. I don’t really know the mechanics behind it.

The factory brackets break over time in even normal use the metal cloak brackets just reinforce the factory ones
