I used a '74 Ramcharger with a wheelbase of 102-inches for many years to tow Power Wagons and similar sized vehicles around on a trailer made for a back hoe. It pulled very well and was very stable. When I got my Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel and used it with the same trailer, the ride and stability of the 2 together was terrible. When someone borrowed my trailer and wrecked it, my replacement trailer was much better with the Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel. I think a tow vehicle and trailer sometimes fight each other because of wheelbase issues, sometimes a shorter wheelbase works better with a particular trailer.
