Ordered a longer, stronger axle, better hubs, and will put some radials on for better stability. Likely not done before the next trip, though...

Took a trip to Tahoe and all went smoothly. Tows fine - no instability. Took it up to 80 mph and it seemed fine. Should be even more stable when I put the wider axle and better tires on it. I did have to stop and let the transmission cool off after going too fast up the Sierra Nevada hills - lesson learned. Cooled down pretty quickly and we were back on the road. Had to cut the trip a day short as another atmospheric river was coming in and I didn't want to tow in a blizzard, but I have one more snow/ski trip for the season coming up. Plenty warm and much easier to set up/tear down than it was before. Will add a few pics later.
