Question:

The question is my frame already has 2 5x 18foot plates welded on each frame rail. I am wondering if these were installed at factory for a hitch. I have a call to my dealer to see if in deed they are for a hitch. I was wondering if you ran into this before and have a hardware to install your hitch. If the dealer finds out this is a place for a hitch, they will want to sell me a hitch at a inflated price. I just want to purchase a two inch receiver so I can also purchase a Thule bike rack.

We aren't going to have a hitch that is a custom fit for your fifth wheel as we only carry custom fit vehicle hitches. We have universal fit hitches like the part # 13703 which you have referenced but that's the best option we have.

Also, Thule racks cannot be used at the back of trailers. But we do offer a Yakima rack that is confirmed as a fit. The LongHaul part # Y02476 is reinforced for use at the rear of a trailer so it would work well. I attached a review video for more info as well.
