I can't really see how it is connected further forward/frame side from the pics...
Towing a jet ski is one thing, towing a 3000 pound car is another.

One of my coaches has a huge collection of steel welded directly to the rear frame, with a ball on a plate extending under the bumper. I asked several folks to look at it at Bean Station with a consensus there was lots of strength. Other coach has the typical through the bumper style that has multiple frame connection points.

Another consideration for using what you have, I would not be able to get my coach in and out of my driveway with your current receiver hitch...add weight to it and it may drag on more occasions.
