Does anyone know what the limit is for towing on the rear bumper. Mine has a mounting point for a pintle hook or towing eye, I'd just like to know what you can do with it. The rear bumper looks really substantial but I'm pretty sure it can't be the same sort of strength as a full towbar.

Its why I put an aftermarket towbar (ECCO model 811) on mine, I dont think the bumper even though its welded to the chasis is strong enough to control high stresses in torsion(twist)
