Towing jeep 4 wheels down or on a trailer?
Anyone have advice on which is safer? Not experienced at this and not sure if trailers with brakes respond to my diesel air brakes. I know I can rig the jeep 4 wheels down with supplemental brakes sys...

If you maintain the toad.
So far over the years I've lost a 2 differentials 4 universals, and a couple tires. had the bar come loose of the jeep, bent the frame of the jeep, and always ended putting the jeep on a trailer to get it home.
Maintenance on the trailer over 50k miles 1 tire. road hazard.
When we bought the trailer used, I upgraded the tires to load range E and installed bearing buddies, changed the lights to LEDs, never had a problem.
You loose a differential the first thing you will notice is the smoke from the two ruined front tires.
these jeeps today are not your grandpa's free wheeling hub jeeps.
here's another thought, when that jeep is up on the trailer you not have a stone chip or a broken windshield .
Also the advantage of a trailer is you can get a custom built trailer and bring more toys along
