Well I'm living in Venezela so those parts are "made in Venezuela"... bumper looks like a very thin steel sheet but where the ball is mounted, there is a good piece of metal, there are no numbers stamped on.
By the way... I was giving a look to my brother' Bronco 1996, it has a different mounting base that looks stronger, any comments??

Javier, It is light weight. If the plate it 3/8" thick where the ball fits, you should be able to pull a single axle boat trailer just fine. Tandem axle or heavier trailers need Class three receiver hitches mounted under the chasis.
