So would you flat tow w/brake buddy, or trailer?

I just bought myself Jeep #5... a loaded 2014 Wrangler Rubicon 4 door with a mild lift on 35's. So, ya'll can see my sig. I have a big trailer. I also have a Brake Buddy that I've had for years....

What kind of tongue weight is on the trailer for those who trailer a 5,000lb vehicle? I would guess a SuperTruss hitch is required with weight distribution bars.

I have flat towed my Jeep and wheeled in areas like Reddog just posted.


My Jeep on a 7k trailer weighs 6400 lbs. Tongue weight is around 800 probably? I run a Superhitch with truss, no weight distribution hitch.
