The hitch I mentioned a few post above was home made. I did some measuring, got the tubeing ,steel plate, bolts and nuts and went to work.I have my own little work shop with all the toys I need to make my own hitch. I have looked under several Montana and Mountaineers new and older. The frame work under them can vary. It seems that most frames end before they get to the rear of the trailer. Then most have some add on materal to the rear of the trailer, not as strong as the main frame.This is what makes it difficult to get a hitch installed on the rear of the trailer. The hitch has to be fastened to the main frame for support and not just to the extension support material.A lot of stabilizer jacks could also be in the way. This is what makes getting a hitch on the rear so expensive.Its the fabricating.That is why I put in the part about the frame maker or the trailer manufacturer putting this in before the trailer assembly.
