If buying an enclosed trailer, I would try to stay close to the dimensions of the Jeep to minimize wind resistance and if you can get the same track width of the Jeep, even better.

The one I was looking at was a 5X8. Didn't look higher that the jeep.

So option 4 is what it is going to be. 5'x8' trailer. I have a quad too, so I can use it for that as well. 950# with a 120# tongue weight. It is 6'5" tall. I'm not sure how tall the Jeep, but it should be close to that I would think. Now I just need to get a hitch and install the wiring.

Nice
I thought you had a hitch. But it’s no big deal to install.

Nope, I wish I would have gotten the tow package, but I didn't. Should have the hitch today and the wire harness on Tuesday. Looks like an easy install.
