The Curt # 13703 Adjustable Fit hitch isn't vehicle specific, so you'd need to check some dimensions at the rear of your motorhome to see if it'll fit. The hitch will fit on motorhomes with a 22 to 72 inch outside to outside frame width. You'll also need to determine the drop needed. To determine this, measure from the underside of the frame members to the lowest portion of the rear bumper or fascia of the motorhome. If this drop distance is greater than 3 inches, the Curt # 13703 hitch would work great for you.

The hitch carries a 3500 lb towing/350 lb tongue weight capacity. You'll want to check with Itasca to make sure the motorhome is capable of towing or has the necessary structural strength to support the load you're wanting to carry.

I've linked to a video showing a typicall installation.
