No, it not strong enough, nor safe.
You need a Factory original rear tow point or a Class III hitch. . ![]() . ![]()

A rear hitch is the best method, and can sometimes be found in the junkyard for pretty cheap. But if not e-trailer sells them fairly cheap. The sheet metal you are trying to use will rip out easily if you try to tow, or be towed with it.

[QUOTE=muddmonky;6338494]is this an example of what to get?[/QUOT
The bracket was on my Cherokee. The diagram is from the Factory Service Manual. I installed a Class III hitch, it is stronger.
