Can Demco Trailer Coupler DM69FR be Welded On

Question:
Can this also be welded to the trailer frame? I am wanting to replace a pintle hitch with this ball hitch but Im afraid of having enough room for drilling mounting holes. Thanks

Hey Ed, yes you could install the Demco Trailer Coupler # DM69FR by welding it to your trailer instead of bolting it.
