It depends on the towbar specs and make.

If you are towing off road I would urgently advise you to check that your towbar bolts onto the chassis with at least 4 bolts per side! Some of them are hard to fit and more often than not are left out by the fitment shops! If not fitted with at least 4 bolts per side it WILL eventually lead to fractures on your chassis rail as the load are not spread properly!

This is experience talking. :)
