Hi, I’m looking for a class three or class four trailer hitch to put on the frame of my 2006 freightliner FS 65 School Bus.

Hey James! For your school bus you're going to need a universal hitch. The best option is the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-07. It is rated even higher as a Class V but still has a 2" receiver. This will require welding so we recommend taking it to a certified welder for installation. It comes with 7" brackets but is also available with 16" brackets # 41990-16. If you need anything else feel free to reply below.

You don’t have anything that can just bolt on to the part of my frame. I don’t want to weld anything and it is only being used for a motorcycle rack for my dirt bike.
