Expert Reply:
The Channel Tongue Coupler part # CT-5003-Z will work great for your situation. It fits the 3 inch channel you have, has more than enough weight capacity at 5,000 lbs trailer weight, and fits a 2 inch hitch ball. Since you have to drill your trailer tongue either way you could just drill it to the same specs as this coupler and you'd be set.
