I wanted a simple rear bumper with recovery points and a hitch to potentially tow a lightweight trailer (~ 600 - 700 lbs). I picked this one up after finding what seemed like generally positive feedback. However, I've been wondering if I made a bad choice. The bumper does tie in to the stock bumper's frame mounts, but as you can see in the photo below, with the only other mounting points being inboard of the frame rails, I cannot add frame tie-in brackets to this.
Without the tie-in brackets, is it suitable for recovery at all? What about towing up to 700 lbs?
