Default Jeep Cherokee as a tow vehicle?

A bit too short of wheel based for the perfect tow vehicle. My six year old
Cherokee with a less that optimal trailer setup gets wagged by the trailer
at higher speeds when the trailer gets bumped by air or bad road or such.
I'm sure that stiffer trailer tires, better jeep shocks and moving the axle
back would help a bit.

Plenty of power, but a longer wheelbase would be nice.

Wondering if anyone has experience towing glider trailers with this?
It's a '91 with the 4.0 FI V6, class 3 towing package.

Thanks,
Ken
