Default Hidden hitch swap

Just wondering if anybody knows whether or not I can swap out a hidden hitch from a 1993 Blazer to a 1997 Grand? I'm not sure if they are compatible, but if they are I wanted to install it on my van.

Thanks!


***EDIT*** I searched the part numbers and figured it out. They are NOT compatible. It was a shot in the dark anyway, but you never know.

True....but I'm too lazy for that, and don't have enough knowledge to do it myself...probably easier just to buy a new one...like I said...lazy

have you tried to loosen the 4 underside mounting bolts for the hitch?

Due to rust i assume on the threads of the bolt, i had to reef on the first one and the threaded sleeve popped loose, now i dont know what to do. its just loose in its hole...
sawzall to get the head off, then a hole saw in the side of theframe to extract the loose piece and allow installation of a new nut ?
