I'm heading out for a track day in July and want to make sure I'm squared away with my towing setup. I have a 1996 2DR 4WD Explorer, with no factory tow package. Haven't yet checked for the harness at the driver taillight, but I'll deal with that one tomorrow.
As of right now - I'm trying to determine if I need a frame hitch or not. My bike's wet weight is about 450lbs., and the trailer I intend to use is this bad daddy....

Will the step bumper with a 2" ball be OK for the 400 mile round trip to the track and back? Terrain is mostly flat for my drive. I'm in Denver, but the track I'm going to is south on I-25, which is still in the plains. I'd appreciate any thoughts/advice on this matter. Thanks!
