Thanks for the pictures of your frame! Looks like your frame is right at 2 inches in width which the frame brackets of the # RP66075 would fit well on. As long as you have 5-1/2 inches of clearance there for the width of the bracket you would be fine. You would need to measure 2-3/4 forward and behind where you measured 32 inches back from to see if the propane tank will be an issue or not.

If not you can always use the bolt on brackets like part # RP58305 which will attach to the side of the frame and not require clearance above the frame at all.

Most of the 2-5/16 inch hitch balls will use either a 1-inch diameter shank or 1-1/4 inch diameter shank. The nut size on a hitch ball with a 1-1/4 inch shank, like the Tow Ready 2-5/16 Inch Hitch Ball, part #19286, will use a 1-7/8 inch socket. A…
