The Class IV Weld-On Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver by Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch and Reese, item # 41990, is a weld on application and it is possible that the hitch could work on your vehicle. You would need to measure the width of your vehicle frame and consult a qualified Weldor to determine if the frame on your vehicle is strong enough to weld the hitch to. He will also need to determine if the frame configuration will accept the hitch in the proper orientation for towing.

Along with the Weld-On Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch you may also need a set of weld on brackets to attach the hitch to your frame. There are two different sizes available, the 16 inch Weld-on Bracket Kit, item # 4916, and the 7 inch Weld-on Bracket Kit, item # 4907.

Dimensions of the Class IV Weld-On Hitch are 44 1/2 inches in length, main tube size is 3 inches square, and there is 7-1/2 inches from the back of the hitch to the front of the receiver.
