Hey Joey, thanks for reaching out!
There are a few hitches, like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98849, that will fit both models, but I'll need to know the hitch part number in order to confirm this for you.
Let me know what hitch you're needing to reuse and I can let you know either way! It's also important to use new hardware each time you install a hitch receiver so you'll need the Replacement Hardware Kit # RHK as well. Just input your hitch info on the product page and we will send you the replacement hardware you need, provided it's a brand we carry.
