A lot is going to depend on what you plan on using the hitch for. The bumper mount hitch like # E-100 is designed to fit on a 4 inch square, continuous welded steel bumper. You would have to make sure the trailer bumper is rated for use with a hitch before installing it.
The best option is always going to be a frame mount hitch. Though they cost more they are much more secure. The most versatile one we have is # 13703. It fits C-channel, Box, and I-Beam frame styles from 22 inches wide to 72 inches wide (measured outside to outside of the frame rails). It can also be bolted or welded on (welding should be performed by a qualified professional). I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.
