Auto Parts: Trailer hitch compatibility from 1986 to 1995 Chevy Suburban, chevy suburban, quality valley

Question
Mike,
I recently purchased a 1995 Chev. Suburban to replace my old 1986 Chev.Suburban, and am wondering if the receiver hitch from the 1986 will also fit on the 1995.  Both are 2 wheel drives.  Thanks so much.

Answer
    If the old hitch was a "universal" hitch, it might.  These aren't very good hitches, though, and I would avoid them.  You should buy a good-quality (Valley, Draw-Tite) custom fit hitch for the 1995 'cause it is a completely different truck with almost nothing in common with the 1986.
