I have a Reese trunnion-style dual-cam WDH, and it works fine on my TM, which has a swing tongue. Other names with very similar hitches are Draw-Tite and Hidden Hitch. I'm not familiar with Valley, and how it would work with a swing tongue. You can even get a good hitch, installed, from U-Haul - it will probably be a Hidden Hitch.

More expensive hitches can be had from Equal-I-Zer and others. I'm not convinced that they are worth any more, but many of our members have them and are pleased.

As I recall, someone had a problem with a Curt hitch interfering with the swing tongue.

As for where to buy, an Internet search may be your best bet. They are heavy, of course, so don't forget to check into shipping cost. Choose one that is rated for 750-1000 pounds. If you buy one on-line, you may need a local installer. Sometimes they bolt on to existing holes in the vehicles frame, so check into that as well.
