I currently have a hitch that is much less in construction.

Towing is rated both by tongue weight, as well as towing weight.

I would have no issue hooking up 3000 pounds of towd car. Tow dolly.

But when it comes to a trailer, i would be looking more carfully as to the actual tongue weight of the trailer. The through bumper ones that our venders produce has a cantilever design that allows higher tongue load for the trailer. You do not want to rely on the rear bumper to carry any weight.
