The best option for you is the Curt Hitch # 13703, which is for frames that have a maximum width of 72" and will work with your trailer's I-beam frame. You can either weld or bolt this hitch on, as indicated by the linked instructions. It has a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs and this hitch is going to require the use of stabilizing strap # 18050 with all non-trailer accessories such as bike racks and cargo carriers in order to maintain the warranty.
