Question:
I need a hitch for a 203 ford thunderbird to pull small utility trailer.

Hey Bobbi, since there aren't any custom fit hitches for a 2003 Ford Thunderbird you're going to have to use a universal one like the Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs, 18" to 51" Wide # C13702.
This hitch will fit frames 18" to 51" wide, has a 5,000 lb capacity, and can be used with a weight distribution system if need be.
If you also need wiring, you're going to want the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236.
Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you!

Hey Bobbi, did the universal hitch work out for your Thunderbird? I'm asking because it could help others looking to tow with a similar setup.
