I've seen several and would like one as well. I plan to have an oval/round plate added to the toung of the trailer. Weld would go on bottom so not to show the discoloring it would make. Nitro trailers now come with these. I would also add a grip to it similar to what comes on a skatbord. Hope that helps.

Being a cheap codger here is the step I made for my trailer. 2x12 board about 2' long. Used some strap from Lowes & Lag bolts to attach U-bolts. Be sure and offset it so your dolly can clear it. I was surprised how solid/stable it is. Not sure how long it will last, but it was cheap. I also rounded off the corners to protect me when I stumble into it and to keep it from hitting the bumper on a sharp turn.
