Think Anti-Sway...

The Jeep's engine has enough power to make the combo go, even uphill...

They suspension has enough strength (with weight distribution) to hold the tongue load...

The wheelbase is on the edge of being long enough... You really should make sure you have well adjusted Equalizer or other well regarded brand of anti-sway technology hitch, and also probably need to check the tongue weight and trailer loads from time to time as well to avoid tail-heavy trailer... Others will probably suggest you can't do it, but I feel it is possible as long as you keep speeds down (that is not a combo to go 75 mph..) and be very alert to possible sway conditions and practice use of trailer brakes to help reduce sway...

(We towed light 24' Nomad for several years behind std Ford Bronco, so I learned much about anti-sway values...)
