2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited towing question

Hey folks

Rollingrock here....we picked up a 2014 JKU (4 door) shows to have a max tow of 3500lbs.

Looking at pick up a pop up, it says it weight 3100lbs. Seems kind of heavy don't you think?

Close enough to tow or too close to max?

Thanks

RR

    RR,

    I have a 2009 Wranger Unlimited and have towed my enclosed motorcycle trainer with it many times. The Wrangler V-6 is a bit gutless in my mind, but it can be done, especially for short distances on an occasionaly basis. The suspension and brakes seem to handle it quite well, it is the engine and transmission that struggle a bit, but shouldn't be a problem.

    Good luck!

    John
