Recommend a hitch brand fro my 1996 2dr S10 Blazer

I would like to install a class 3 receiver hitch with the 2" square receiver tube. I normally will only tow 2000 lbs max but like the 2" receiver for the carriers that can go in it like a bike rack etc. I would like something that fits well and does not hang down to low or look awful. reccommend what you have on yours or seen that you like, Hidden hitch, Valley, Reese, etc. Thanks for all replies!!

I have the Reese bolt-on class III since I bought my '97 new in Oct. '96.
(garage kept and well maintained/cleaned, only 32,000 miles)
The paint is supposed to be the powder coated baked on type, but I've had numerous chips and flakes come off allowing surface rust. Other than that,for almost 8 years old, It fits and works quite nice.
