Wait a minute--The FRONT of the toe vehicle swayed? That is NOT trailer sway!!
What you have is too small a vehicle. Read the owner's manual, I'll bet it says the jeep will tow a 5000 lb trailer WHEN PROPERLY EQUIPPED. What that means is you must get a weight distributing hitch. After that it will tow OK.
By the way 450 lb tongue weight is about right for a 4500 lb trailer. I am a little surprised 450 lb on the bumper caused the Jeep front end to come up.
