Car Forum / Ford / Ford Explorer / September 2006Long shot question
I'm looking at a trailer hitch that came off a 1996 Ford Ranger to fit my 1993 Ford Explorer. Any chance that it'll fit? I know it's the same chasis (is it?) but for different model years? Hitch is a TSC V5 Shelton. Thanks!  Signature- Zilla Cary, NC USA (Remove XSPAM) Looks like they're different, based on Drawtite part numbers. I don't know what the difference is. You might check them out locally; I bought mine from UHaul, but there are a lot of retailers that stock them. The differences may be minor; maybe only differences in hole locations? 1996 Ranger, Drawtite part #75082 http://search.cartserver.com/search/search.cgi?MakeList=makes%2Fford.xml&keyword s_1=Ford&ModelList=Ranger+Pickup&keywords_2=Ranger+Pickup&YearList=1996&keywords _3=1996&cartid=s-1547&bool=AND&category=l_drawtite_search&maxhits=20 1993 Explorer, Drawtite part #75083 http://search.cartserver.com/search/search.cgi?MakeList=makes%2Fford.xml&keyword s_1=Ford&ModelList=Explorer&keywords_2=Explorer&YearList=1993&keywords_3=1993&ca rtid=s-1547&bool=AND&category=l_drawtite_search&maxhits=20 > I'm looking at a trailer hitch that came off a 1996 > Ford Ranger to fit my 1993 Ford Explorer.

If the width on the mounting points is the same and only the holes are different, I would drill the hitch to fit.
