My '94 Jimmy has a Class III Reese hitch that works well. I'd assume someone should have one for a '96. I think Pep Boys stocks Reese hitches, if they don't have one in store they can usually get stuff in a day or two. If you want to order online I'm pretty sure JC Whitney has a hitch for just about anything. From what I understand, U-Haul is in the business of selling hitches now as well, might be worth-while to check them out.
