I have included a link to the class III receivers designed for RV's and Campers like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver Item # C13701. These are weld on or bolt on receivers and have a 500 lb tongue weight and 5000lb gross towing capacity.

The highest rated hitch receivers we offer like the Curt Class 5 Universal Weld-on Hitch Item # C97CR are universal hitches and are not specifically designed for RV's and Campers, but require them to be welded to the frame. I have included a link to the page. Keep in mind these are heavy duty class V hitches with 2-1/2" receiver tube openings, 2000lb tongue weight and 20,000lb towing capacity. You would want to check with the camper manufacturer on what the recommended highest weight capacity can be towed behind the camper.
