Miss that truck��...
here is a quick draw of the adapter I made, it would require to drill 2 holes in the crossmember and 2 long bolts( I used 5/8 grade 8 bolts) or if you are good with a welder you can weld only 1 plate with the R&P bolts atached to it (I did'n weld it because I was unsure of the results and my welding skills were not good enough)
the R&P unit has the mounting holes proportioned so you only need to measure the center of the crossmember and adjust your adapter the best posible.
my advice is to get the necesary parts first and then start the project.
