"Doing such a mod, will likely void the frame warranty if something happens. "
Curious as to how many trailers have had frame issues that were under warranty. I have seen two fifth wheels with cracks
up front but that was after many years of service and loaded to their maximum weight rating constantly. A 21 foot trailer has
what two main frame rails and some crossmembers. Any issues that do come up, and highly unlikely, could be repaired by
the fabricator making your hitch. As a professional mechanic and welding since I was a kid I have some background. I say do it.
