could the rear bumper handle the load?

hey i need help again! i just got a s10 and i need to tow it to my house. i wanna get one of thoes 2 wheel tow trailers.could my mazda stock rear bumper hold the load of the s10?

i've towed an x cab s10 with a dolly using the bumper of my old blazer.. no problems... dont know about the mazda though.

does anybody know? idd like to know if i would lose the dolly and the s10 on the freeway

i thought when you overloaded the bumper it just starts to bend, not fall off!
is it a factory bumper?

ya its a factory bumper.

I would not worry about the tongue weight if you are using a tow dolly. My concern would be ur little 4 banger being able to pull the truck. And your brakes being able to stop such a load. just my 2

I think if you took it easy you'd be fine. There's not much tongue weight on those dollies.

We pulled an 1985 montecarlo behind my 1998 F-150 500 miles on a dolly with a bumper hitch. Those cars are heavy as shit. It should be fine. Pull the drive shaft out of the S-10! This will create less drag and is also better for the s-10's tranny. My concern would be the little 85hp we have. Just take it easy.

Dude go for it, I had a 85 nissan that we hauled a bodydropped isuzu on a flat bed trailer 30 miles. Yes it was hard to stop, and it did 0 to 60 in about 2 minutes, but it made it. And that truck was all rusted to shit. You should be just fine, just go slow and be carefull....good luck

If you are using a tow dolly, all of the weight of the truck is centered over the axle of the dolly.. There is almost no weithgt from what you are towing put onto your truck.. you could probably lift the hitch with your hands..

Like ryan said, only thing you need to worry about is moving and stopping.
