Get a hitch receiver without a ball, a 3/4 x 60 piece of conduit and an end cap. Turn the hitch upside down and pound the pipe in, put the cap on and tighten. Surprisingly it's very strong I've had mine at 80 without a problem. Driven probably 500 miles and all is well

Trust me after awhile alternators turn into 20 minute jobs in the parking lot of advance. Take it out, get another free one, toss it back in.
