I am not familiar with the spitfire frame but I had one made for my tr6. I
used the 5/8" x 2" flat bar type reciever so I could mount it up tighter and
farther under. I had the bar bent around the rear pan and turned up higher
to raise the tougue height. I found the frame is very thin and as Randall
said be sure to use flat bar to distribute the load or an angle to go around
the frame and a flat bar inside. I had it made at a welding shop for
$110.00 cad( about $10.00 US and bolted it on myself)
Mine was made to carry bicycles rather than a trailer after my clamp on the
bumper type carrier from a VW bug failed after hitting a hump in the road
sending the bikes up in the air and back down on the trunk and then dragging
them down the highway at 100 km per hour.
