Question Stock trailer hitch.

It is bolted to the rear bumper. Is it strong enough to haul a small trailer with my Honda ATV Rancher 400 on it?

IIRC - the stock haul weight is 3-4k lbs.

The stock trailer hitch is bolted to the rear cross member of the frame. The bumper is just a piece of hollow plastic. You should have a 3500 lbs tow capacity and 500 lb capacity on the tongue.

My bad. I just took a quick look. My middle aged body doesn't like bending over much anymore.
