This is my first Cherokee, my wife found this on FB. Its a 2000 Classic, 174,000 miles. The last owner was her co-worker, and 2nd owner since 2006. Does anyone have experience towing a CJ2A with these?

I used my 98 Cherokee with a 4 litre 5 speed standard to pull this Jeep out of the wood and about 30 miles of back road at about 40 to 45 miles per hour .It pull alright .In the pass when I was camping with my family I pulled a 23 foot camper over 100 miles with no problem.But it was nice to have a standard transmission and I wouldn’t go over 60 miles hour. Your wife got a good eye .Nice looking Cherokee.

My '95 Cherokee (440K mi.) has 4.0L engine and is rated at 4,000 lbs towing.  My normal tow is the CJ on a 12' flatbed.  The only drawback is I have done a lot of brake jobs.  An electric brake upgrade on the trailer is planned soon to make this better.
