the key word is "ultra-lite". your bumper will barely support the tire and will NOT support a tray that sticks out away from the trailer.
the only way to do this, is to have a receiver welded AND braced to the frame and the bumper.
but, be forewarned, this mod will probably void your frame warranty. that has come from the companies.
motorhomes, 5th wheels and non ultralite trailers have stronger frames that can support such weights. your trailer doesn't have shocks and the bouncing will cause the bumper welds to fail.
your question is asked constantly and there are thousands of posts about it, mainly related to bike racks.
a quick search on the subject will give you days of reading.
