I recently made one based on the plans that Tuzem and ConnSVX used. Do some searching for trailer hitch and you will find pictures.
Basically you need to buy a 2" square tube, a receiver tube, and some 2" x 1/4" flat bar, and some 1/2" or 3/8" bolts to put it all together. If you make it yourself you can do it for < $100.
I'll post some pics of mine if you like.
With 4.444 gears it had no trouble towing a u-haul 4x8 trailer with a bunch of my junk inside. Though I did have to remove the waterfall grille to get more airflow as the temp was starting to creep up sometimes, though it was a high 90's temp day when that happened. After I took the grille out it was fine. With stock 3.54 gears you will probably be fine too, just a little slower to get up to speed. Take it easy on acceleration and you shouldn't have much problem with 900lbs.

Not so sure about that. I'll have to do some searching but I think there was one available once upon a time.
