Hey Chris, thanks for reaching out!
There aren't any custom front hitches for an F-53 chassis so you're going to need to have a shop fabricate one using something like the Draw-Tite # 41990 that can be modified.
Aside from that, a shop might be able to use some materials of their own, but it will essentially be the same thing.

Hey Chris, did you end up having a shop modify the Draw-Tite hitch for your F-53 motorhome? Knowing how that worked out could really help others trying to add a front hitch to the same chassis.
