I went through 3different hitches from the boneyard until I found one thatwas onlt about 1/4" shy of clearing the bottom trim ( not enough to need to cut, I just tightened it up and let it bend up a tad )
They all fit the 700/900 bolt pattern, but the ones for 95 and later are a couble of inches lower,and will clear all of the trim, but require an insert with about a 4"lift.

The ones for the earlier 700's are made for a shorter bumper skirt and wind up about 2" high into the skirt, and won't clear the muffler heat shield on a '93.

The later style 700/900 hitches will fit as mine does without hitting the heat shield.
