Expert Reply:
Trailer hitches that can be installed on the back of trailers do not have a specific fit list so I recommend going with the hitch that is the most versatile and that is Curt hitch # 13703. It fits frame widths from 22 to 72 inches. Frame width is measured from the outside of one frame rail to the outside of the other. It can fit box, C-Channel, and I-Beam frames and it can be bolted or welded on (welding should be done by a professional welder). I have linked a video showing an example installation as well as a link to the instructions.
