get a good trailer, with 2 axles, so it can be balanced so it does not have too much tongue weight and you should be good,

oh yeah, and with the trailblazer on the trailer we want to see a pic,:D:D
 












ahh...a Ford towing a Ch*vy...just like it's supposed to be:p:
 






well.. its a chevy... so yeah.. lol seriously, for legality reasons get yourself a 2 axle vehicle trailor, it should tow that GM right on down to the scrap yard/repair man =P.

EDIT

WHOA Just realised u said trailblazer SS, dude... i hate you lol.

its a good thing to have with that much weight

Most dual axle trailers have an electronic brake setup on them and towing that much wait it wouldn't be a bad idea unless you really take your time but also depends on the rules of your local trailer rental dealer.
 






I don't think uhaul will rent it to you. I tried the online reservation for your situation and it said:


This towing combination is not recommended.

We're sorry, but we are unable to recommend equipment that would meet your towing needs.

Please review the safety advisements below and then try another setup.
