I would need to know the width of the frame measured from the outside of one frame rail to the outside of the other frame rail at the back of the trailer. And if you can tell me if it is a C-channel, I-beam, or box frame that would help too.

The Curt trailer hitch you referenced # 13703 is the best bet. It fits frame widths for 22 inches to 72 inches. And it will fit box frames, C-channel frames, and I-beam frames. It can also be bolted or welded on. If you choose to have the trailer hitch welded on the welding should be done by a qualified professional welder.

I have included a link to the installation instructions and a link to a video showing an installation of this hitch on a trailer. If you end up with this hitch then to be in compliance with the warranty requirements you must use a stabilization strap, # 18050, for non-trailer loads (such as a bike rack or cargo carrier).
