I would also get 5,000 lb. axles. Beefier trailer & better brakes.
We tow our TJ on an 18' trailer with 3,500 lb axles. I wish I had upgraded to 5k axles/tires. Doesn't cost much if you order it that way.
When I bought my car trailer, it was pretty much all I could afford. I thought the 7000lb. capacity would be plenty, but I eventually upgraded to 6000lb. axles, mostly for the better brakes. I really wish I had just bought a heavier duty trailer to begin with. It would have been cheaper in the long run.
