Another bumper question

[PaulB12]

2016 Jayco WH 23MRB:
I'm wanting to add some kind of storage box to bumper. See photo for details.
One beam is the main frame beam. The back one is about 6 to 10 inches long welded to bumper and main frame. As you can see there are two holes also.
Does this give me more weight carring ability? Yes, and I know adding rear weight will affect over all weight caricatureistics. I think max weight would not exceed 150lbs.
I don't remember seeing a double beam arrangement like mine, I think the bumpers are attached with just one.
What do you all think??

I think the weak point in adding to the rear bumper is usually the thin metal of the bumper itself

My bumper looks and feels a little stouter than most, I could be wrong.
I wouldn't use the bumper as the main support, would tie into both of the supports pictured. Of course there is one on the other side.

When I did the rack on our 24RBS, I tied into the factory tabs welded to the frame for a factory installed receiver. Do you have those tabs on your frame? Jay

I don't see any tabs, but there are two holes on the bottom of the c channel where they might be placed. The holes are on the horizontal not the vertical portion of the frame.
When it stops raining here I'll try and get more pics.
