I know folks have had success with bumper receivers from harbor freight. I found this one on amazon for similar price, twenty dollars and change and free shipping if you have prime. What I liked about this one is that it had a smaller footprint but it was still a 2 inch receiver. It worked out really good because two of the bolts fit the BX exactly. The other two had to be drilled a little. The hitch also came with hardware and the bolts were long enough so I was able to put the original Kubota plate on the bottom for extra reinforcement. Here are some pics.

I have one of those mounted under front bumper of my Jeep for moving trailers and such around property.... Have also used it to push trailer into tight places for vehicle rescues.... So much easier to control driving forward.... Also lets me use Jeep winch to pull objects onto trailer...

Here is my front mounted hitch. They are great for moving things into tight spaces. You have much better control over a rear hitch.
