So far as quality goes, you won't find better than a Dennis Haynes
receiver hitch. I've had one for several years now and it has been
perfect. I will be ordering another soon for my other '88 GL, and the
one thing I would do different is have it delivered with no paint. I
would then have it thoroughly cleaned and powder coated locally.

I can't address the Syncro vs 2WD mounting.
