Check out www.reeseprod.com or www.thetowzone.com for lots of hitch choices. Tow Zone had great prices and reasonable shipping. For towing 4500 lbs with an Explorer you will likely want a weight distributing hitch and of course a brake controller for the trailer brakes. Hopefully you have the large engine and low axle ratio in that Explorer. I would also look at getting some LT (light truck, as opposed to P, passenger car) tires with a C or D load range in the stock size if you don't have them already.
