If I'm understanding you correctly you're wanting to place the Buyers Products RV Universal Receiver Hitch Item # 3371804060 on the rear bumper of the trailer and need an adapter from that to the ball mount on your truck. If that is the case then you'll want the Ark Articulating Off-Road Coupler for 2" Receivers - Trailer Side - 2" Ball Item # AR44FR.

Note: Since you're trying to pull with the bumper you will need to know the tow rating of your vehicle's bumper. The # 3371804060 has a 3,500lbs tow rating but if the bumper has a lower rating that is what you have to follow.
