a four wheeled trailer with the front wheels on a single axle that pivots at he center would be extremely difficult to back up, as you are in essence pulling two trailers attached to each other. castor wheels at the front of a trailer on the other hand may work, but you would need to make sure they were well maintained, a bound up castor would act like a beat up shopping cart that always pulls to one side or shakes violently. personally I would probably try a single castor wheel under the tongue that is adjustable to change the load on the to vehicle. just make sure it's a tall enough wheel to handle potholes, and maybe consider a suspension of some sort so it doesn't rip your hitch off your car. also, trailer brakes would be an absolute must have.
