The problem with most stock bumpers are that they aren't substantial enough to place heavy object back there. While they can support the static weight of the objects, they also have to support the dynamic weight of the objects bouncing around. You end up with a very effective hammer back there. My trailer came with a warning stick on the bumper that said the max weight was 135 lbs. The bumper can support much more than that, I know because I've stood and bounced on it. However the manufacturer is accounting for the hammering effect.
