We do offer some hitches that will work for you, but I'm not finding a hitch with the # 37042 part number you mentioned.

If the 67 inch measurement you mentioned is the outside frame member to outside frame member dimension, Ultra-Fab offers the # UF35-946403 that would work well for you.

If the measurement you mentioned is the inside frame member to inside frame member dimension, then go with the Curt # 13703.

Before installing the hitch, you'll need to check with the manufacturer of your 5th wheel and make sure the rear structure is strong enough to carry the load you're planning on applying to the hitch. Keep in mind that if you'll be mounting a bike rack to the hitch, you'll want to make sure the bike rack has been designed for use on the rear of a towed vehicle. I've linked you to our selection of bike racks that are suitable for use on the rear of a 5th wheel.

If you're planning on towing another trailer behind your fifth wheel, be sure to check the laws in the States or Canadian Provinces you'll be traveling through as tandem towing is prohibited in many places.
