Expert Reply:
While we do not have a custom fit hitch for your Freightliner MT45 we do have several heavy duty weld-on hitches that could work for you. I have included a link to all of them for you.
Based on your frame width you could use # 41990 which is 44 inches long. Then for brackets you could use 7 inch brackets # 4907 or 16 inch brackets # 4916.
If the frame is an I-beam frame then the only option is # 13703.
Weld-on hitches should only be installed by qualified professional welders. I have linked some instructions for you to view as well.
