i know the bumper hitch is great for small stuff like a pair of jetskis or quads..or both
let us know how you fare man...jeep motors werent built to tow..

 

ya know what else is a retarded option bryant????(something you "opted" for)

 

when ur young u do dumb chit. i rember one time i was pulling the 16 footer and lassy ran out in front of me........the owner an old women seen the whole thing
i had 2 carry her dog back 2 her house. but was kinda her fault for not tying up the dog. empty my truck would not stop in ten foot at 55mph

kinda differnt now. i have a 1 ton. 20 foot dump trailer..with brakes. just got 2 use what u have at the time

 

Hey, not gonna make a new thread, so I'm gonna steal this one.

Looking to tow a 6' x 12' enclosed, roughly 1300lbs unloaded. I've got a 2000 4WD, 4.7L Auto. She'll tow it just fine right? I know, I know, keep OD off. Loaded probably gonna be close to the 5000lbs range.
She's got the tow package if that means anything. 9.25 rear (I think, pretty sure actually, kinda hard to read the tag though), LSD.

Also, if the trailer is fully loaded, how much could I safely put in the bed at the same time? Sorry for newb question, but I'm used to a full size 2500. You put anything back there basically.

 

you will be able to tow that just fine. my pointers (having quite a bit of towing experience) is to make sure you have trailer brakes and use the transmission to slow the truck down as much as possible. Meaning downshift and use the RPM's to help you slow down so you don't burn up your truck's brakes too bad.

As far as putting stuff in the bed, i would say use your better judgement. Depending on the tounge weight the truck is going to sag pretty low. Loading up the bed with less than 500lbs would probably still be safe but the first rule of towing is to make sure and take your time.

Lastly, you are not trying to put this on the bumper right? I would assume no but just make sure your reciever hitch is up to specs in terms of gross weight and tounge weight.

 

Class III Receiver, 2" hitch ball. I never use the bumper.

Thanks for the advice.
