Shouldn't be a problem. The towing capaicities are in your owners manual. Look under the Towing catagory. Here's the ratings from my 2003 manual (I expect the the '04 is similar).





I've towed loads like the one you're describing with both my 1992 and my 2003. both of those have 4.0LO V6's, Automatic Transmission, 4X4, and trailer towing option.

Hope this helps..........
