Short Bed Hitches

Instead of scouring the internet for endless hours....does anyone know of a good receiver hitch that will bolt to the bottom of a short bed frame and have the tabs face out with the plate on the inside edge of the frame? I am in need of a hitch for my CCSB and would like to have exhaust straight back.
Thanks!

Any pics of different ways you see hitches mounted?
Thanks!

I thought I was the only one on here from MD. I'm trying to do a restore on mine. Any idea on where to get decent parts from any salvage yards? Some parts I am buying new but some I could get from a junkyard. I am from Middle River but now live in Whiteford. I was thinking maybe Orems or others down on Ebenezer Rd, have you had any dealings with any of them?

BTW...love your truck.

The only ones I have good luck at are crazy rays Edgewood and Erdman ave
locations. EZ Pickens on Earls Rd is very small not usually worth it.
