I was asked about my trailer hitch via a PM so I figured i'd give the details in a post. I got a hitch from a Dodge Grand Caravan from the junkyard for $25. Uhaul part #36203. It took a little modification to get it to fit, but it works pretty good.
I drilled holes in the frame and welded a nut into the hole so that I could bolt the hitch to the frame. I also welded the hitch to the frame.
It fit between the tow hooks, sort of. It's on the outside of the left side and inside of the right side. I did have to trim some the edge of the hooks and beat it a little with a hammer. I bolted it to them and booger welded it also.
I had to cut the rear muffler hanger and take some material off the hitch where the tail pipe was interfering with the hoop.
I also had to cut some of the hitch to clear the muffler.
