With your bumper setup I would cut a square hole for a 1.25" receiver to fit in. Fab a 4"x6" plate with the same size hole for the rear of the bumper. Fab another 4"x12" plate for the front of the bumper with the same size hole.
Weld a 2"x2"x1.25 tube between the frame to accept the end of the 1.25" receiver. Insert the receiver thru the bumper, weld the plates to the bumper and the receiver. Weld the end of the receiver to the 2x2 tubing.
Most bike racks can use a 1-1/4" receiver.
