I had one for the ASBug that bolted to the same position as the bumper brackets. It had a large diameter pipe cross over and was beefy. If that is the one that SC has, then you will not be disappointed.  If it is a bumper clamp one, then yes, it will be weak.
You can pull a small trailer (~4X8) with the one I had.
I never liked the long ones because of the lowered ground clerance issues and the fact that they are REALLY close to the oil sump. Get rear ended and the engine could get damaged from force buckling the tow bar mechanism...
