1995 4Runner hitch?

Was there an option to have a trailer hitch included on 2nd gen 4Runners, and if so what brand was it? I'm specifically interested in 95's, but any info is better than none.

Anyone know anything about this? Once again my searches on the site and thru google have come up empty.

Thanks,
-Keith

I installed "Hidden Hitch" brand hitch on my 93 back in 95. It has been perfect. The coating on the thing is like a plastic, so it doesn't rust like the factory Toyota one. Mine is greyish now, but I could probably hit it with some forever black to make it look new.

I'll be parting with it eventually if I can ever find the time to do my custom stuff (rear bumper, etc) Interested? Where are you located?

I'm in Tampa. I've been looking around online and it seems like Reese hitches are the most popular brand on 4Runners, but i'm not sure if that's because they were originally included on the trucks from the factory or if they are just really popular.

I've already got a hitch, I was just curious about what the original hitches that were available were.

Thanks,

I think the Reese was what my Toy dealer was putting on as a dealer installed option IIRC.
