Ask around (RV repair shops, fab shops, bus tour garages, etc) to find a GOOD welder/ fabricator to make one to fit. It isn't hard IF one knows what they're doing.

Lots of welders will make claims of greatness, the question is - will their customers make the claim for them?

Good luck in your quest.

Danny,

Since it's a bus You will probably need to have one fabricated to fit.

Get a universal class III hitch which bolts together ( Tractor Supply has them ) Then
take that to a professional welding / fab guy and have it setup for your coach.

I did my own that way for my MC9 and they are easy once you figure out how
to mount things. It does take some extra metal and cuts to make the attach points.
