I'm still working on it. Never home so time to fab something to the frame of the camper hasn't been on my side. They sell hitches that use U bolts to attach to the rear bumper of the camper, but I don't trust the cheesy rear bumpers. Gonna weld something direct to the frame and then a receiver will be welded to that.
Oh, you need to tow the Pioneer behind the camper? I thought you got a toy hauler?

Cool, come on! @WhiteLightning will add you to the roster. You’ll need to camp because there’s only a dozen rooms in the motel and they’re reserved.

Just couldn't make a toy hauler happen, and time isn't on my side for this ride. The frames on all travel trailers are the same. You can buy a 20yr old rig for a couple thousand or you could buy a brand new rig. They all have a thin I beam frame. I can weld, but it's easy to burn through these frames. Got a guy in Oklahoma that will fab a frame mounted receiver for me, but I'm on the waiting list. I'd rather have someone who has been doing this for years do the work, rather than me poke and stab with a stick welder and hope it comes out right. I really need a wire welder with argon.
