Thank you for this video. Very helpful. I have a 2020 JLUR 2.0 Automatic on 38” Ridge Grapplers. I want an Intect Flyer Discover. It is larger than the Explorer. It is a 2,800 box empty with 525 tongue weight. BUT, all of the weight in the rig when empty is at the very front. (Kitchen etc). I imagine putting my full 38” spare and generator in the very back, along with a weight distribution hitch, would make it just fine. Folks keep saying it would be too much but other than ergonomics, yours is heavier and longer and seems just fine 🤷🏼♂️

You are pushing the limits of your JLU. Have you ever weighed your setup? That dry weight of 3100 lbs quickly gets eaten up by additional options like an AC unit, any water you are carrying in your tanks plus the weight of clothes, kitchen supplies, food and drinks. How much are you carrying in your Jeep and how close are you to over loading the payload rating of your Jeep? Also realize that with an increase in wheel size (more I sprung weight) you are effectively reducing the towing capability of your rig. I also noticed that your rear is sagging, have you considered a weight distribution system? Also for every 1000 ft of elevation increase you lose 2% of your towing capacity. So if your towing your camper across parts of the Smokey Mountains, you’ve lost 10% of your capacity. While the JLU may be able to tow your Geo Pro across flat terrain in Florida, it will struggle in hilly terrain and be dangerous in windy conditions or in emergency breaking or swerving conditions. As someone that has towed campers for over 15 years across many different terrains, a good rule of thumb is to match you camper’s gross weight rating to 80% of your vehicle’s towing capacity. I believe your Geo Pro has a max rating of 4,500 lbs. Therefore, I would target a vehicle with a 5,500 towing capacity to pull your camper or given your Wrangler’s towing capacity, a camper with a gross weight of 2,800 lbs.

Hi AstroNerd, I’m aware 300-400 pounds add up quickly. My dry weight of 3088 lbs includes everything attached to the camper. When I tow all my tanks are empty. I keep my cargo light and minimal since is just me and my girl. I do groceries after I’m at the campsite. I drive nice and easy. I use a weight-distribution with sway control. I also use a brake control on my Jeep. I just got back from my 22nd camping trip towing the Geo Pro. That gives me 8896 towing miles. Jeep handles the camper very well it’s almost as if I’m not towing anything. At times I forget I’m towing a camper. So far, no issues with the Jeep. This setup works for me. However, I’m not sure it works for everyone. Especially if you have a family. Thanks for watching and your comments. Cheers, JC.

Hey Juan Carlos, first off I'd like to thank you for your vids and commitment to the Jeep wrangler and camper package. They say it can't be done, ......ok. LOL second, I'd like to know if you've taken your rig to the CAT scales to get absolute weight values for tow vehicle and trailer.....dry, and then loaded. Such as propane, water, ice, passangers , food, outdoor patio setup , full tank of gas,etc... I have a similar rig. 19' avion and jku sport on 35s. It all looks good on paper untill you start to load it up, and then everything changes, even my dog. Also have you re-geared for the towing or sticking to stock. It's a shame jeep hasn't updated there wranglers to a decent tow package stock. Keep on doin Jeep.

Hi, Frettls. I have not taken my rig to the scale. I’ve now gone on 13 trips 5904 miles of towing the camper loaded. Not an issue. The Jeep does not care. It’s towing the camper. I need to remind myself I’m towing the camper and keep it under 65 MPH on the highway. The only upgrades are the 35” tires, 2” lift, and a beefier bumper. Everything else is stock. It’s just my girl and me. Friends drive their vehicles when they come along. The jeep should have a model design for towing. The Gladiator can tow 6,000 -7,650 lbs. depending on the model with the tow package that has a 4.10 axle ratio. I can’t believe the new 392 Hemi Rubicon can only tow 3500 LBS.

My model is 3088lbs late model 2021. Knowing how well the Jeep handles the G19BH I feel it could handle the Winnebago 1700BH. However, I don’t know. If you do end up with a heavier model, then mine. Please let me know how it goes. I’m interested. I’m glad to hear you got the brake control installed. I would suggest getting a weight distribution sway bar control kit. It makes all the difference on the highway. We see camper trailer swaying all the time on the highway because they lack this system.

Can a 2019 door Jeep wrangler tow another 2 door Jeep wrangler 2021 on a U haul car trailer, long story,on why i don't use a professional company etc,( if you see the cost they ask for it..these days due to covid etc)...its a surprise vehicle for my brother in law, I and don't want to run extra miles on that 2021...on a long trip of approx...max 560 miles?, is it do-able....?,without damaging my 2019 Jeep....My brother in law had Co finance it for me just before Covid hit and it will be a huge gesture of appreciation for the that for him...i am a bit sceptical about the idea but any expereinced jeepers can share some ideas.

Hi Tr7764. R, a two-door Wrangler is limited to 2000 lbs of towing. you may want to consider renting a pick-up truck to tow. if not, I would hook up the jeep with the new jeep and see how it feels. If the driving jeep goes (moves) without pressing the gas pedal, you may be good to go. Go nice and easy. If not, definitely rent a pick-up truck. Best of luck, JC.
