Tow package.
Last question, I swear! 
This thing did not come with the "towing package". It is a 1996 limited 5.2 with qudra-trac. What would one need to do to add towing to the list that this thing can do? I don't mind doing work or welding or what not. Has anyone done this before?

I am looking to do the same thing to my wifes cherokee but it look to have a uni body frame. JC Whitney sell a hitch but doesnt look the stout.
What are my options?
Just looking to pull a couple of jetski. Nothing major.

Go down to UHaul and see the hitch assemblies they have to offer. You may also look into an aux. trans cooler too if you plan on towing a lot.

My '97 Grand w/the 5.2L V8 came w/the tow package and heavy duty cooling system, trans. cooler, bigger alternator, and the 5-pin connector for the trailer lights. The harness for the connector is there in the back behind the panels, you just need to get the 5-pin connector and harness that connects to it.
