I used one to tow an '87 GL behind my Ford Expedition (4.6L V8). I
travelled about 100 miles. It was the best $50 I ever spent. The one I
rented looked almost new and had surge brakes which made it easy to
stop. Definitely don't use overdrive if the Jeep has an automatic
tranny.

Does the GL run? If not it will be difficult to get onto the trailer
without a come-along or something. I picked up an inexpensive winch at
Harbor Freight Tools for under $50. Worked great to pull my GL onto
the trailer. I also have a tow-dolly so it comes in handy for that too.

Also, if in a freezing climate, don't even do it unless you know the
roads you will travel are nice and clear.
