Search and you'll find lots of stuff: moving trailers, jet skis, small boats, whatever you call that thing Ldub built (;)), etc. I don't tow with mine but use it for my hitch mounted cargo box.

Post 140 of this thread has the installation instructions. That'll prolly answer your question better than anything.

Utility trailer full of storm debris

SeaDoo boat

SeaDoo PWC twin pack

& it makes an excellent stump puller

Peruse my gallery at your leasure to see the evidence.

The more I look at these pics of bumpers, especially the one I saw with the front bumper rotted away, I'm thinking these bumpers really are to protect the clad. That rotted bumper must have been very thin-wall tube to rot like that. Hardly an adequate protection for a crash. I suspect it is there for light impact protection of the clad and the radiator. The clad will deform and possibly return to its original shape and thats what the tube bumper allows. In the rear of the VX all the pics I see show a sturdy structure where the bumper has been removed that would provide protection for the gas tank in my opinion.
