Anyone have a 67-72 Step Bumper near MI?

I may need a step bumper (and brackets) for my 67. Does anyone in or near Michigan have one they don't need?

Also, anyone know how much weight those bumpers can pull?
I'm looking to maybe use it to haul my jetski around, it's only about 700lbs soaking wet.

Thanks

Ean

While 700 pounds is perfectly safe to pull with a step bumper, I would say don't pull huge heavy loads. I have one here that is ripped, and it just scares the crap out of me to see ppl haul some of the things they do with a step bumper.
I think 500 tongue weight is about as much as you can go on them.
