Good Day,
I am looking at getting a trailer hitch for my 1996 Prado, and found that the frame at the rear is not the same as on a 96 4Runner. I know the worries with towing with the 1KZ-TE, and my intent is to be able to short haul a utility trailer for garbage dump runs (appx 15 miles), and to be able to carry a hitch mounted basket for stuff like lawn care equipment or other stuff that will make a mess in the car. I tried a 4Runner hitch, and it fits width wise, but I would prefer to not drill extra holes in the frame if that is avoidable. Has anybody had luck getting a hitch mounted on their 4 door Prados?
Thanks,
Jay
