I have seen them on fivers but not so much on TT's .
Fiver frames seem to be heavier and the TV on a fiver carries hitch weight over its rear axle opposed to the end of its bumper hitch with a TT.
I'm assuming that you have already looked into the weight distribution calculations re: adding weight to the rear effecting tongue weight on the TV .

If weight distribution on the hitch is not an issue on your TT , I would think a frame mount fabrication would be a more solid necessary application. See pics in below link.
