It is possible you can make this work on your nuCamp TAG XL but there will be a few things you need to check and consider. It looks like your trailer uses a 2,200 lb axle. You will need additional clearance to account for the offset of the wheels as well as the larger diameter of the tires. The Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - Heavy Duty - Long Spindle w/ 4" Lift # ASR1THDS03 will be your best bet to accomplish this.

This will give you 8-1/2" of backspacing clearance for your wheels and the lift will add clearance for the top of the tires. You need to check the backspacing on your Jeep wheels to make sure this will fit. You will also need to account for space with the fender with the larger tires. It looks like there are several different fender styles for your trailer so it may depend on which you have. Ultimately you may have to remove or replace the fenders.

You will also need new hub and drum assemblies as well as brakes. The 2020 Jeep Wrangler uses wheels with a 5 on 5 bolt pattern. The # AKHD-550-35-EZ-K is the hub you need to fit the Timbren system with this bolt pattern. Then for brakes you can use the # AKEBRK-35-SA. As far as tires and wheel are concerned you would need to find something comparable to what is currently on your Jeep. You likely have a 245/75R17 tire on their now which is 3-1/2" taller and 1" wider than our only 17" trailer tire # KE88XR.

I have attached some review and installation videos below for your reference.
