Help request.. frame measurement

I have a 2011 Cherokee Grey Wolf 28BH and would like to mount a flag pole holder on the frame. I tried to use the mount I had on an old trailer but found out it's bigger than a 4" frame.

Can anyone with a similar trailer do me a huge favor and measure the width of the frame at the tongue? This is the mount I'm trying to make and need to find out whether I have a 5" frame or 6".

Trailer is parked in storage over an hour away. I'd like to have mount ready to use for the next trip.

You have to go measure.

Find a place to eat breakfast nearby and then answer the questions.

Do the frame sizes vary that much? I assumed most were made to the same specifications. The picture I used is from a vendor who says they offer 5" or 6" frame option. I guess I'll have to hold off on the project.

Great!! That helps me a lot. Thanks so much for taking the time to measure yours. Worse case scenario I can re-drill if mine isn't 5" also.

Is this something you made up or store bought?

I made it. It's exactly like what's pictured above. They sell it for $25-30. I bought a piece of scrap metal for $2. I figured a square ubolt will cost around $5-7. So for less than 10 bucks, I can achieve same goal. Plus I'm using 1/8" pipe which is much sturdier.
