>From what I recall, you shouldn't put anything more then a Class II
hitch on the Wrangler. This should be able to handle max 2k lbs.
Trust me, don't tow anything larger then that.

I tried to tow one of those dual-wheel Uhaul trailers down the
street. It's scary!!! Even unloaded at 30mph, the Jeep felt like it
would jackknife. I returned it after driving 1 mile down the road.

If you need to tow something larger, get the Unlimited which is longer
and has more wheelbase for towing.
