The 2 5/16" ball is only used on Gooseneck Trailer hitches, which are installed in the bed of the truck.  It's not a problem, but I would like to confirm if that is what you are requesting. OR do you require a standard 2 inch tow ball on rear bumper section with electronic connections?  Here is a 2 5/16 ball the SOW is referring to:

Hitch Ball with 2-5/16" Diameter and Medium Shank, 12,000 lbs GTW - Chrome

What exact provision do you require for VHF/UHF radio? Normally, we would supply a 15AMP circuit to inside cab.
