2013 Jeep Wranger 3.6L V6 (trailer towing)

I bought a 2013 jeep wrangler with 3.6 L V6 and am trying to purchase a trailer that it can handle. I know the jeep can pull 3500 lbs but i do not want to over load the jeep. I am struggling to find the right trailer that is around 3500 lbs or lower possibly a hybrid since the living space can be larger when you get to your destination.

I would like to get a 15-18 foot trailer that is light enough that it wont put too much stress on the jeep. I have looked around some of them are extremely small and not a fan of the A frame type. I would love to find one that sleeps 4-6. I know the ultra light campers are out there i just dont know where to start. Can anyone recommend where to look? Can you help me to find a good brand that is durable...i know nothing about hybrid trailers other than a friend suggested it due to weight restrictions.

I will have to install air shocks in the jeep cause the springs in the rear of the jeep seem to be soft.

Only the Sahara and Rubicon models have the 3500# TT capacity with the V6. All other models are 2000#. Also the Sahara/Rubicon TT requirements include a trailer frontal area of less than 32sq-ft.

This is all listed in your owners manual.

Good luck.

FWIW, if I was towing with a 3500-lb limit, I'd go with a pop-up with a slideout. It would give you more space than a 15' hybrid, which is likely as big as you can tow with the Jeep.
