Hey Doug, thanks for the information. To add a hitch to your 1996 Ford Mustang convertible, I recommend the Draw-Tite item # 24687. This hitch is custom fit for both the V6 and V8 models. It is also compatible with the convertible setup. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity and a 200 lbs maximum tongue weight.
What are you needing a hitch for?
