Its Rated as a Class 1 Hitch. 200lb tongue weight, 2,000lb trailer weight. Yes it can tow, but I wouldn't trust it. My aunt and uncle towed the smallest UHAUL trailer behind their Explorer Sport Trac from Georgia to Idaho and by the time they got here the bumper was bent up pretty bad....install a regular receiver hitch that is frame mounted its the proper way to do it anyways. I managed to find a Class 2 receiver hitch at Pick A Part for $30 for my 87 Ranger a couple weeks ago. You can probably find a universal hitch that adjusts to fit multiple vehicles pretty easily, or order a hitch fit to your vehicle at Etrailer.com. Course you'll also need the trailer light wiring harness as well, get one that plugs into the rear light plugs of the truck, don't do that Scotch Lock hack job install crap.
