Hi Steve!

We do have a Class IV hitch available for your 2021 Ford Ranger, but the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class IV - 2" # DT35PR is specifically for a 2024 to 2027 (so far) Ranger. For your 2021, you will want the following hitch:

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class IV - 2" # DT73GR

These hitches are both very similar, both in design and capacities (which are actually exactly the same), but there are differences that do make them fit specific years.

What are you going to be towing?
