Recommended 2-1/2" Trailer Hitch for a 2006 Thomas School Bus
Question:
Have a 2006 Thomas school bus. Best I can tell it’s a freight liner chassis. Frame width is 34 inches outside to outside. I am looking to find a hitch to fit this with 2 1/2 inch receiver.

I do have an option for you but there aren't any custom fit trailer hitch options for a 2006 Thomas School Bus. That said, we do still have universal options which can be installed either via welding or cutting/drilling. For this, I recommend the Curt Class 5 Universal Weld-on Hitch part # C87CR which uses very large side plates so you have a lot of room for error when modifying them to make fit. It has a class v rating with 2-1/2" opening which is great for heavy duty towing.
