I have an option that may work for you, but there are not any trailer hitch receivers that are a custom fit for your RV built on a 2015 Ford F-53 chassis.

Since you mentioned wanting a Class IV or V receiver you would need to add a universal hitch like the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver - Weld On - Class V - 2" # 41990-07 that has 7" tall mounting brackets or the # 41990-16 that has 16" mounting brackets and have it welded to the frame of your RV. Both of these options work with frames up to 44" wide so you will need to confirm that your RV frame is 44" or less.

Keep in mind that while these trailer hitch receivers have a 1600lb tongue weight rating and 16000lb trailer weight rating, your RV may not. You will need to check the owner's manual for your RV and use the lower rating between the hitch and RV.

I included a video of the # 41990-16 for you to take a look at.
