Does a Bumper Welded to a Trailer Frame Have the Capacity for a Skid Wheel part # UF48-979014
Question:
I do not have a hitch but the rear bumper on my camper, like most others, is a square tube welded straight to the frame. Is this strong enough to support a portion of the weight while the wheels keep it from dragging. I think it would be fine but I want the expert opinion before bending up the bumper.

Expert Reply:
The trailer of your bumper is welded to your frame so it should be very strong, it's also designed to take the brunt of the impact in an accident. I would say that your bumper should be strong enough to have the Ultra-Fab Rotating, Hitch Mounted Skid Wheels # UF48-979014 installed on them.
