Default Mopar square tube hitch?

Is there a Mopar square tube hitch available for these trucks?

I thought that everything from mopar/Dodge has round tubing. There is a used one i am looking at buying, but i want to make sure there's a possibility it will fit. Thanks

Mine is a round tube, I haven't seen a square Mopar one but I know you can get square ones from other places.

I saw a regular square tube (hooks up to both sides of the frame (not via the bumper like the other models) on a dakota on my way into work this morning. First one I have seen on a Dak. I don't remember the brand the sticker said though.

Well, the guy never replied to me so I never had a chance to question him or see it.

you can find the square tubes on ebay or you can use the curt hitch witch bolts up to the crossmember right behind the bumper (witch is from what i understand the same thing as factory just a lot cheaper)
